Reproductive
Male: seminal vesicles, prostate gland, penis. Female: ovaries, fallopian, uterus. Produce offspring.
Immune
Red bone marrow, thymus, spleen, lymphocyte: protects body with antibodies
Nervous
Control Center: brain, sensory receptor, spinal cord: responds to internal and external changes.
Urinary
Kidneys, ureter, urinary bladder, urethra: eliminates nitrogenous wastes, regulates water, keeps acid base balance.
Lymphatic
Thoratic duct, lymphatic vessels: Picks up blood leaked from blood, disposes of debris, housed white blood cells
Muscular
Skeletal muscles: locomotion and facial expressions
Digestive
eating: oral cavity, esophagus, stomach, intestines, anus: breaks down food for energy and removes waste
Cardiovascular
transport center: heart, blood: transport blood which carries oxygen, carbon, nutrients and wastes
Skeletal
framework: bones, joints, cartilages: protects and supports body organs
Respiratory
breathing: nasal cavity, pharynx, trachea, bronchus: keeps blood supplied with oxygen and removes carbon dioxide
Endocrine
hormone center: pineal gland, pituitary, thyroid gland, adrenal gland, pancreas, testis, ovaries: regulate growth, reproduction, metabolism.

Energy
the capacity to do work; stored or kinetic energy. No mass cannot be measured. put matter into motion.
Polar covalent bond
electron density is unevenly shared between two atoms
Matter
anything that occupies space and has mass; substance composing physical objects.
Atom
the smallest particle of an elemental substance that exhibits the properties of that element. Protons, neutrons, electrons.

Plasma membrane
external cell boundary, confines contents
Nucleus
control center of the cell, contains DNA
Chromosomes
dna bound to protein that appears as strands
Adipose
largest cells in the body incapable of cell division, make up 90% of tissue mass, rich in vascularity, metabolic activity.
Blood
hemocytoblast. fluid within blood vessels. atypical connective tissue. develops from mesenchyme.
Dense Regular CT
packed bundles of collagen fibers running in same direction, forms tendons and ligaments, gives tissue flexibility and resistance to pulling forces. forms aponeuroses.
Hyaline Cartilage
resistant to wear and tear. covers ends of long bones.
Mesenchyme
first tissue formed, eventually specializes into all other connective tissues. embryonic CT
Immune
Red bone marrow, thymus, spleen: protects the body with antibodies.

intermediate
a structure between a medial and lateral
proximal
closer to the origin of body part
distal
farther from the origin of body part
superficial
at body surface
deep
more internal
Negative feedback
increase in output and decrease in input. variable change in an opposite direction of initial change: thermostat, temp regulation , blood glucose levels, heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen.
Positive feedback
result or response of the mechanism. enhances stimulus, activity is accelerated: blood clotting, and labor contractions
