New cards

What is the digestive track lined with

Epithelial Cells

2
New cards

What is Chemical digestion

 enzymes in the saliva break down carbohydrates

3
New cards

Stomach

Muscular sac that holds and churns food using smooth muscles

4
New cards

Small Intestine

Surrounded by capillaries to absorb nutrients

5
New cards

Large Intestine

Reabsorbs water into the body to create solid waste

6
New cards

Rectum

Rectum stores fecal matter

7
New cards

Anus

Anus has two sphincters where fecal matter is released

8
New cards

Liver

makes and secretes bile, which helps break down fat

9
New cards

Gallbladder

stores and concentrates bile

10
New cards

Pancreas

secretes digestive enzymes to breakdown carbohydrates, proteins and lipids

11
New cards

Peristasis

muscle contractions that move food down the esophagus

12
New cards

Path Of Digestion

Mouth, Esophighs, Stomch, Samll Intestine, Large Intestine, Rectum, Anus

13
New cards

Path Of Air

nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea,branches off two bronchi,bronchioles,alveoli

14
New cards

respiratory tract is lined with…

epithelial cells

15
New cards

what do epithelial cells do

secrete mucus

16
New cards

what is cilia..

hair-like structures that protrude from  epithelial cells

17
New cards

Mouth/Nose

Takes in air; warms and moistens; traps particles

18
New cards

Pharynx

Passage for air to trachea

19
New cards

Larynx

Cords make contact to create sound

20
New cards

Trachea

Passage for air to bronchi

21
New cards

Bronchi

Passage for air to bronchioles

22
New cards

Bronchioles

Passage for air to alveoli

23
New cards

Alveoli

Lined with blood vessels; allows gas exchange

24
New cards

Diaphragm

Contracts and relaxes to move air in and out of lungs

25
New cards

The circlutory system is made up of

  1. Blood


  1. Heart


  1. Blood Vessels

26
New cards

circulitory fuction

Moves nutrients absorbed from small intestine, lungs,

blood drops off CO2 and picks up O

Carries wastes away from tissues to kidneys to be removed 

27
New cards

How dose the cirulitory system Regulates temperature

Blood vessels constrict during the cold, Blood vessels dilate during heat.

28
New cards

Arteries

carry oxygenated blood away from heart; have thick walls to withstand pressure

29
New cards

Veins

carry deoxygenated blood toward the heart; thinner walls because lower pressure

30
New cards

Capillaries

, very thin walls; allow substances to diffuse between blood and other tissues

31
New cards

Path Of Blood

Deoxygenated blood enters the right atria, pumped to the right ventricle, The right ventricle pumps it to the lungs to be oxygenated, Oxygenated blood returns to the heart, left atria and is then pumped into the left ventricle, The left ventricle pumps the oxygenated blood to the bod

32
New cards

Red blood cells

Carrys Oxgen

33
New cards

White blood cells

Fight Infection

34
New cards

Platelets

allow blood clotting

35
New cards

Plasma

 protein-rich liquid

36
New cards

3 resons for cell divison

growth, tissue repair, reproduction

37
New cards

 zygote

the single cell created when a sperm fertilizes an egg

38
New cards

stem-cell

unspecialized cells with the ability to self-renew

39
New cards

cellular differentiation

the process where an unspecialized stem cell transforms into a more specialized cell type

40
New cards

Differentiate between embryonic and tissue stem cells

Embryonic stem cells are only found in embryos, tissue stem cells are not

41
New cards

Regeneration Can

Liver, Skin, Bone

42
New cards

Regeneration Cant

Brain, heart, kidneys

43
New cards

Ethical Issues

abortion

44
New cards

Central Nervous System

Brain and spinal cord

45
New cards

Peripheral Nervous System

motor nerves, sensory nerves.

48
New cards

Ligaments

49
New cards

Cartilage

flexible tissue that cushions joints

50
New cards

3 type of tissue

skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle

51
New cards

Circulatory to Respotory (everything)

Moves oxygen and

glucose around

the body so cells

can do work

52
New cards

Skeletal to Nerveos

Spine sends messgaes to the brain

53
New cards

Digestive to skeletal
