1. Define the terms anatomy and physiology. Explain the principle of complementarity and how it applies to this course. The term anatomy refers to the structure of the body and its parts. Along with the study of the body structure‚ anatomy also refers to how these body parts work together and their working relationship as a whole. Physiology is the study of how the living systems in the body function and work. When studying the Physiology of the body it is most understandable if terms from the underlying

Review Sheet for Gas laws Name ___________________________ 1. A gas at 2.3 atm occupies 12 liters. The volume is changed to 6 liters what is the resulting pressure? 2. A sample of gas is confined to 30ml at a pressure of 6 atmospheres. When the pressure is changed to 3liters‚ what is the resulting pressure? 3. A gas occupies 30 L. When the gas is heated from 50C to 100C‚ what is the final volume? 4. In a lab‚ Neon vapor occupied a volume of 1 liter at STP‚ the volume was changed to 4 liter

Human Physiology Lab Special Senses Cutaneous Senses and Vision September 24/26‚ 2012 Our bodies are capable of sensing a wide spectrum of stimuli. We are consciously aware of some of the information our bodies perceive‚ but much of the information that is sensed is beyond our consciousness. Receptors responsible for perception of stimuli are found in many places: skin‚ eyes‚ ears‚ mouth‚ blood vessels‚ lungs‚ brain—frankly‚ every cell in the body has sensory receptors. These receptors are

Activity 1 1. Size and concentration of the solute 2. It was too large to pass‚ as predicted 3. I predicted that the glucose would diffuse since it is small enough but the albumin is much too large to pass through the membrane. The experiment produced this result. Activity 2 1. Neither way requires ATP but facilitated diffusion requires carrier protein molecules for diffusion to occur. 2. By increasing the number of carriers more glucose can pass at a time increasing the rate‚

The cells in the primary visual cortex are arranged in such a way that they allow the visual system of the brain to detect where objects are. First off‚ the cells are organized in a way that is called retinotopically. Basically‚ this means that there is a map located from the retina to the primary visual cortex. The “map” also extends to other areas

Review Sheet Exercise 1 Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability Activity 1: Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion) • Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion: Two variables that affect the rate of diffusion are size and concentration gradient. The molecular size vs the MWCO size of the membrane can either increase‚ decrease‚ or prevent diffusion. The greater the concentration gradient the greater the diffusion rate due to molecules moving from areas of higher concentration

Physiology Assignment Name Class Date Every organism has specific characteristics that make it ideal for living in the certain environment that it resides. For example‚ owls are birds that have adapted to hunting at night. They have many adaptations that allow them to be successful night hunters. One adaptation that the owl has involves their eyesight. The eyes of owls are sunk in. This allows an owl to collect and intensify light making it better able
