"Striated" is a description that would apply to which kind of animal tissue?
muscle
Myosin and actin are __________
proteins that play a major role in muscle contraction
A neuron consists of many components. Name three
cell body, dendrites, and axon
The __________ system and the __________ system work together to coordinate and control physiological processes in most animals
nervous ... endocrine
Which of the following statements is/are true of hormones?
They are chemical signals broadcast throughout the body.
They are relatively slow-acting compared to nerve impulses.
They act only on cells with receptors specific to that hormone.
They are distributed by the bloodstream.
define endocrine system
body system that make and release hormone into blood
Which of the following is a characteristic of the nervous system but not the endocrine system?
Communication usually involves more than one type of signal.
Which of the following best illustrates homeostasis?
Elevated blood CO2 stimulates faster breathing, which rids the body of excess CO2.
Which of the following is a function of your circadian rhythm?
Your body temperature rises and falls every day.
When a jogger starts to run, the rate at which his muscles produce CO2 rises sharply. But the CO2 in his blood rises only slightly before he starts to breathe faster and his heart starts beating stronger. Soon his increased rate of CO2 production is balanced by an increased rate of CO2 removal. This would be an example of __________ feedback because the jogger's circulatory and respiratory systems are ________
negative ... acting to oppose the increase of CO2 from the set point or normal range
What kind of feedback most directly maintains homeostasis? Why is this?
negative, because it tends to keep a system at a desirable set point or normal range
By definition, an ectotherm __________.
obtains most of its heat from its environment
The term endotherm refers specifically to _________
an animal that gets most of its body heat from its metabolism
Which statement is true regarding thermoregulation?
Ectotherms generally do not conserve body heat as effectively as do marine mammals.
The wolf, his coat glowing in the early spring sunshine, sat atop a cold boulder after unsuccessfully pursuing a plump jackrabbit. He continued to pant while __________
heat radiated from his tired body
It is a cold day in the lecture hall. When you rest your arm on the cool laminated desktop at your seat, heat is transferred _________
from your body to the desk by conduction
During a fever, the __________ readjusts the set point of the body to a __________ temperature.
hypothalamus ... higher
On a cold day, blood vessels in the skin _________
constrict, reducing heat loss from blood at the surface
Which of the following statements is true?
When your body temperature is too high, sweating helps to correct the situation because it lowers the metabolic rate by dumping toxic ions.
When your body temperature is too low, vasodilation in the skin helps to correct the situation because it conserves heat in the body core.
When your body temperature is too high, vasodilation in the skin helps to correct the situation because it redirects heat from the body core to the outside.
When your body temperature is too low, shivering helps to correct the situation because it lowers the metabolic rate and conserves blood sugar.
When your body temperature is too high, vasodilation in the skin helps to correct the situation because it redirects heat from the body core to the outside.
Sweating _________
helps the body thermoregulate

In the late fall, bats hibernate in clusters with many bats pressed together and holding on to one another. Which of the following statements does NOT represent an advantage of this behavior?
Huddling behavior helps bats stay warm while they feed.
