Anatomy and Physiology I Exam Review‚ Units 1-4 1. The smallest structures that biologists consider being alive are A. organisms. B. organs. C. macromolecules. D. cells. E. organelles. Review levels of organization. 2. Cells contain smaller structures called ___ that carry out their metabolic functions. Review the structure of the cell and know the functions of each of the organelles. 3. Many physiological processes are controlled by self-correcting ___ loops.

sarcoplasmic hypertrophy (professional bodybuilders and endurance athletes).[citation needed] The first measurable effect is an increase in the neural drive stimulating muscle contraction. Within just a few days‚ an untrained individual can achieve measurable strength gains resulting from "learning" to use the muscle.[citation needed] As the muscle continues to receive increased demands‚ the synthetic machinery is upregulated. Although all the steps are not yet clear‚ this upregulation appears to begin with

isolated frog muscle could be made to contract when the sciatic nerve was irritated with a metal object‚ conducted the first muscle experiments between 1661 and 1665. Later‚ between 1737-1798 Luigi Galvani determined that frog muscle responded to electrical currents. The kymograph‚ which was invented in the late 1840’s lead to the revolution of experimental physiology because it enabled muscle contractions to be analyzed and recorded. The muscle cell or fiber is the basic unit of a muscle. The frog gastrocnemius

Human Anatomy and Physiology Anatomy - the study of the form or structure and arrangement of body parts and their relationships Physiology - the study of the functions of the body parts or structures and their relationships in maintaining life processes. Levels of Structural Organization The human body consists of levels of structural organization that are associated with one another. There are six levels of structural organization: I. chemical level - It is the simplest level and it includes

SKELETAL SYSTEM The Arctic wolf’s body is built for long-distance travel and withstand different types of weather than other wolves. The Arctic wolf’s skeleton system is made for them to run‚ jump‚ and catch their prey. The part of the wolf’s skeletal starts with the part of the body that has bones of the limbs‚ skull‚ and a deep chest. 1. The limbs of the wolf include the legs and toes. The wolf has long legs‚ large paws‚ and short toes. The wolf has five toes on the forefeet and four toes on

Anatomy of Knee The knee is composed of 4 bones: the femur‚ tibia‚ fibula and patella. Every one of these bones are practical in the knee joint‚ aside from the fibula. The patellar tendon elongates from the inferior pole of the patella‚ as an extension of the tendon of the quadriceps femoris muscle to the tibial tuberosity. The role of the patella tendon is to transfer the force of the quadriceps muscles‚ much like a rope around a pulley‚ as your knee straightens. (John Miller‚ 2015) Definition

Muscle In this experiment‚ you will explore how muscles work. You will also examine some of the properties of muscle fatigue. In this experiment‚ you will electrically stimulate the nerves in the forearm to demonstrate recruitment‚ summation‚ and tetanus. Written by staff of ADInstruments. Background The skeleton provides support and articulation for the body. Bones act as support structures and joints function as pivot points. Skeletal‚ or striated‚ muscles are connected to the bones

SYSTEMIC ANATOMY 1. Give OIAN of the tongue. The muscles of tongue can be divided into intrinsic and extrinsic groups. The intrinsic muscles lie entirely within the tongue‚ while the extrinsic muscles attach the tongue to other structures. The extrinsic muscles reposition the tongue‚ while the intrinsic muscles alter the shape of the tongue for talking and swallowing. Extrinsic tongue muscles‚ by definition‚ originate from structures outside the tongue and insert into the tongue. The four paired

Histology This lab focused on the examination and identification of tissues that make up the organs of the body. The tissues are divided into four main categories: epithelial‚ connective‚ muscle‚ and neuronal. Click on the thumbnail images to see a larger version. All of the photomicrographs were taken using the 40X objective (400X magnification)‚ which is the highest magnification we use in this lab. Other resources include linked web pages on the "Resources" page and the histology tutorial
