promotes, elimination

16
New cards

__ exerts metabolic effects and plays a key role in adaptation to __

17
New cards

stress response: __ blood glucose, __ immune function, mood alterations (increased alertness), increase protein metabolism

19
New cards

medula: core of __ gland

adrenal

20
New cards

epinephrine reinforces and is stimulated by the ___ nervous system and exerts metabolic effects

21
New cards

medula effects on organ systems: __ cardiac output and __ respiratory airways (increases surface area)

increases, dilates

22
New cards

medula metabolic effects: prompts mobilization of stored carbohydrates and fate so extra energy is available as needed to fuel __ work

New cards

anabolism: __ of large organic macromolecules from small organic subunits

buildup

29
New cards

catabolism: __ of large energy rich organic molecules within cells

breakdown (think breakdown of glucose to pyruvate)

30
New cards

interconversions among organic molecules: most small organic molecules can be __ into other types

converted

31
