Aphy 101 Midterm Study Guide
Study Guide for Statewide APHY101 Online Midterm Exam
(Study Guide , Ivy Tech Community College, East Central Region)
NOTE: The midterm exam will pull: 40 questions from Chapters 1, 2, and 3 combined, 16 questions from Ch. 4, 19 questions from Ch. 5, & 25 questions from Ch. 6.
Chapter 1 • Explain the difference between the study of Anatomy and the study of Physiology? • Name and define the levels of organization of life? • Define metabolism. • Define homeostasis? How does a homeostatic mechanism maintain homeostasis? • What is meant by negative feedback? How does negative feedback affect homeostatic mechanisms? • Know the locations of the major body cavities. Be familiar with major organs within each cavity. • Describe the structure of a serous membrane? • (Referring to section 7) What are signs of aging at the cellular level? • What is meant by Anatomical Position? • *Know the meaning of the common anatomical terms presented in the textbook for relative position (such as medial vs. lateral, proximal vs. distal, etc.).
Chapter 2 • Explain why Chemistry is an important part of the study of Physiology. • Define atom, element, molecule, and compound. • Name the bulk elements of the human body. • What do Atomic Number and Atomic Weight of an atom represent? • Define ion? How do we indicate in a molecular formula if an atom is an ion? • Define isotope? • Distinguish between types of Chemical Reactions: Synthesis, Decomposition, Exchange, & Reversible. • Define electrolyte. • Define Acid, Base, and Neutral compound. How are acids and bases represented on the pH scale? How do hydrogen ion concentrations change as the numbers change? • What is Acidosis? Alkalosis? • What distinguishes an Organic compound from an Inorganic compound? • *Give Examples and Characteristics of the 4 types of Organic Molecules. Reference Table 2.8.
