TEAS SCIENCE

Pancreas

• Makes DIGESTIVE ENZYMES

• Regulates our blood sugar by secreting hormones named INSULIN and GLUCAGON

Liver

• Filters toxins and breaks down waste  

• only Produces bile and proteins such as (fibrinogen etc...) 

• Stores glucose, processes nutrients  

Spleen

• FILTERS BLOOD and removes damaged cells

• produces and stores WHITE BLOOD CELLS

• STORES BLOOD and holds RBCS and platelets

gallbladder

stores, concentrates and releases BILE

deposition

gas turns directly to solid without stoping at liquid.

the atoms become more ordered

freezing

liquid to solid example water freeze to ice

condensation

gas turns to liquid

atoms become more organized

sublimation

solid goes directly to gas without stopping at liquid

particles become more DISORDERED

What is the correct ordering of structures most simple to most complex

amino acids - protein- myocyte(heartcell) -heart

what deposits minerals forming matrix of bone aka builds up the bone

osteoblasts

what breaks down bone

osteoclasts

somatic cells

regular body cells ex: skin, muscle cells

DIPLOID= 2 times the # of chromosomes as haploid aka germ cells

germ cells

sex cells cex: sperm and egg

known as GAMETES

HAPLOID

in mice SOMATIC CELLS contain 40 chromosomes. how many chromosomes are found in each germ

20 GERM CELLS

which atom has the largest atomic radius?

size of atom

H

smallest of all atoms only 1

.

What is correlation

two things happen together.

what is causation

one thing causes the other.

what is osmosis

water moves from a HIGH CONCENTRATION in the tubule to a LOW CONCENTRATION in the blood.

Water reabsorption in the descending limb of the loop of henle is most accurately described as ?

osmosis along a concentration gradient

what monomer pairs create a disaccharide when bonded together?

Glucose ang glactose

What is the name for the combination of temperature and pressure at which a substance’s solid, liquid, and gas phases can simultaneously exist at equilibrium?

triple point

what is blood flow in the heart

Blood flow: R atrium → R ventricle → Lungs → L atrium → L ventricle → Body

What is the function of the heart?

pumps blood through the body

What are the 4 chambers of the heart?

Right atrium, Right ventricle, Left atrium, Left ventricle.

What does the right atrium do?

receives deoxygenated blood from the body

What does the right ventricle do?

Pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs.

What does the left atrium do?

Receives oxygenated blood from the lungs.
