  • Pelvic region

    Location of the urinary bladder and internal reproductive organ
  • Extensor
    One up angle at the joint
  • Oxytocin & ADH (ADH is known as Vasopressin)

    Hormones released by posterior lobe
  • Order of organization of living things
    • Organelle
    • Cells
    • Tissues
    • Organs
    • Organ Systems
    • Organisms
    • Populations
    • Communities
    • Ecosystem
    • Biosphere
  • All living things are made up of cells
  • Intramembranous ossification
    Flat bones of the skull, the mandible, and the clavicles are formed first
  • Basal cell carcinoma
    Most obvious skin cancer
  • Active transport
    Requires energy (ATP) from cell
  • Passive transport
    Does not require energy
  • Diffusion
    Movement of molecules or particles along a concentration gradient, high to low concentration
  • Osmosis
    Movement of water across a membrane (low to high concentration)
  • Fibrous joints
    Stationary & held together by ligaments only
  • Cartilaginous
    Connection between articulating bones made up of cartilage
  • Synovial joints
    Freely mobile
  • Types of asexual reproduction

    • binary fission
    • mitosis
  • Eustachian tube

    Links the nasopharynx to the middle ear
  • Calciferol (aka vitamin D)

    Controlled by parathyroid hormone
  • Sebaceous gland
    Secretes oil
  • Endocytosis
    Engulfs and brings in (endo = internal)
  • Exocytosis
    Fuses with plasma membrane & releases contents outside of the cell (exo = exit)
  • Pituitary gland
    Produces adrenocorticotropic hormone and growth hormone
  • Adrenal gland
    Secretes cortisol & aldosterone
  • Aerobic respiration

    Takes place in mitochondria and requires oxygen and glucose to produce carbon dioxide, water and energy
  • Anaerobic respiration

    Produces energy and uses glucose, but produces less energy and does NOT require oxygen
  • Parts of the respiratory system in the upper respiratory
    • Bronchioles
    • Alveolar ducts
    • Alveoli
  • Aerobic respirations happens in the presence of oxygen

  • Parts of the sternum
    • Manubrium
    • Body
    • Xiphoid Process
  • Plasma
    Water makes up most of it
  • Polypeptides
    Chains of amino acids
  • Mitosis
    The process of cell division that occurs in five stages before pinching two daughter cells in a process called cytokinesis
  • Meiosis
    Is to make haploid gametes and production of germ cells
  • Ribs
    Attached to the sternum
