New cards

two types of cell division:

Mitosis and Meiosis

2
New cards

Mitosis:

a cell divides once, resulting in 2 daughter cells. These daughter cells are genetically identical to the original parent cell. Each daughter cell contains the same number of chromosomes as the parent.

3
New cards

Meiosis:

During mitosis, a cell divides once, resulting in 2 daughter cells. These daughter cells are genetically identical to the original parent cell. Each daughter cell contains the same number of chromosomes as the parent.

Number of chromosomes:

Mitosis: same number as parent cell

Meiosis: Half as many as parent cell

12
New cards

Genetic Diversity:

all the possible genetic variations of a species.

13
New cards

How is genetic diversity increased

sexual reproduction and having a large and diverse population

14
New cards

Why is genetic diversity important (sexual reproduction)

Since the combination of genes is random in sexual reproduction, each offspring is different and therefore genetic diversity can increase. Want to find offspring with the best genes through natural selection to reproduce species that are better to survive.

two types of transformation of food in the digestive system

mechanical and chemical

33
New cards

mechanical transformation in digestive system:

physical breakdown of food into smaller particles to prepare it for chemical digestion

34
New cards

Examples of mechanical transformation:

Chewing: process of crushing and grinding food-mouth

Churning: muscle contractions mix the food with secretions from the digestive glands

35
New cards

chemical digestions:

chemical reaction occur to transform the larger/more complex molecules into simpler molecules.

36

what determines blood type:

due to the presence or absence of antigens on the surface of the red blood cells.

44
New cards

role of the circulatory/ cardiovascular system

serves to transport blood throughout the body and exchange of gases, nutrients and waste.

New cards

what is the lymphatic system:

The lymphatic system is a network of tissues and organs that help rid the body of toxins and waste and is necessary in maintaining your body’s defenses.

51
New cards

role of lymphatic system:

evacuate waste products from the cells and aids in the circulation of antibodies. Transport lymph, which contains antibodies and white blood cells,

52
New cards

immunity

ability of an organism to resist a desease or ingections by the action of specific antibodies produced.

53
New cards

Active immunity

Active immunity is a type of immunity developed by the body's own immune system in response to exposure to a pathogen or antigen.

54
New cards

two types of active immunity:

natural immunity and artificial immunity

55
New cards

Natural immunity:

acquired naturally when an organism recovers from an infectious agent through the bodies process of creating antibodies.

56
New cards

Artificial immunity:

artificially acquired by injecting a small quantity of a

weakened infectious agent through a process of vaccination wich wil cause body to produce antibodies for that particular disease.

What system is this

Nervous system

64
New cards

Peripheral nervous system:

Connects different parts of the body to the cns

65
New cards

role of peripheral nervous system:

transportation of nerve impulses from the senses to the brain and from the brain to the muscles

66
New cards

Sensory receptor:

detect stimuli and transform the information into nerve impulse

67
New cards

Sensory nerves:

transmit information from receptor in body to the cns

68
New cards

Motor nerves:

transmit information form the cns to the body in order for the body to respond appropriately to the stimulus (producing voluntary and involuntary movement)

69
New cards

order of information through nervous system

stimulus—sensory receptors—sensory nerves—CNS—motor nerves—muscles

70
New cards

voluntary act

act is one that you choose to do consciously.

71
New cards

Reflex

A reflex is an action that is involuntary, meaning you do not choose to do it. It is done

automatically for you. Most reflexes serve to protect the body.

72

cochlea

73
New cards

sensory receptor for balance:

Vestibule and semicircular canals

74
New cards
term image

Pinna: captures sound wave

Auditory canal: carries sound wave to eardrum

Eardrum: vibrates in response to sound waves and transmits the vibration to the ossicles.

Ossicles: 3 small bones which transfer the vibrations from the eardrum to the cochlea.

Cochlea: fluid filled structure shaped like a snail, tiny cilia that line inside move in response to vibrations and concerts these into nerve impulses

semicircular canals: 3 fluid-filled rings oriented in different planes. Movement in the fluid send information about movement and body position to help maintain balance.

75
New cards

sensory receptor for smell

olfactory epithelium

76
New cards

define olfactory epithelium, olfactory bulb and olfactory nerve

olfactory epithelium: contains chemoreceptor nerve cells which are sensitive to odorant molecules. Converts the chemical information in the odorant molecules into nerve impulses.

Olfactory bulb: locaed at tip of olfactory nerve, contains 15 million nerve cells. conveys nerve impulse to olfactory nerve

Olfactory nerve: transports nerve impulse to olfactory cortex
