| Functions of the Human Body | adaption circulation elimination locomotion nutrition oxygenation regulation self-duplication |
| Adaption | receive, interpret, and respond to internal and external stimuli via the nervous system |
| Circulation | transport oxygen and other nutrients to tissue via the cardiovascular system |
| Elimination | remove metabolic wastes from the body via the renal system |
| Locomotion | allow voluntary and involuntary movement of body via the musculoskeletal and neurological systems |
| Nutrition | take in and breakdown nutrients to be used for metabolism via the digestive system |
| Oxygenation | take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide via the respiratory system |
| Regulation | hormonal control of body functions via the endocrine system |
| Self-duplication | production of offspring via the reproductive system |
| The 11 organ systems work together to carry out the functions necessary for life. These functions are: | -maintaining boundaries -responding to environmental changes -moving about -ingesting and digesting -nutrients -reproducing -growing -removing waste -producing energy through metabolism |
| When all the needs of the body are met, and all of the organ systems are working properly, the body is in a stable state know as...... | Homeostasis |
| Which system is the transportation highway for he entire body? | Circulatory / Cardiovascular system -consists of the heart, blood, and blood vessels |
| An organ that contracts and pumps blood through out the body | The Heart -rhythmic contractions of the heart enable blood to be transported throughout the body |
| What are the blood vessels that transport blood away from the heart to the capillaries? | Arteries |
| What are the blood vessels that transport blood from the capillaries back to the heart | Veins |
| What serves as the location for the exchange of oxygen, carbon dioxide, fluid, and nutrients with in the body | Capillaries |
| What does the heart contain | -4 chambers (right/left atrium and ventricles) -4 valves (tricuspid and pulmonary on the right and mitral and aortic on the left) |
| Flow of blood through the heart | deoxygenated blood enters the heart through the -superior and inferior vena cava -right atrium -tricuspid valve -right ventricle -pulmonary valve -pulmonary artery -lungs -pulmonary veins -left atrium -mitral valve -left ventricle -aortic valv |
| Primary function of the lungs | breathing in oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide |
| Flow of air through the lungs | -air is inhaled through the nose into the trachea -passing into the the right/left bronchial tubes -air travels into the aveoli, where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occur -oxygen is then transported by RBCs into the bloodstream |
| What is the diaphragms function in the respiratory system | it is an abdominal muscle that contracts and pulls air into the lungs during inspiration |
| Inspiration | the act of taking in oxygenated air |
| Expiration | carbon dioxide is forced out of the body when the diaphragm relaxes |
| Nervous system consist of the... | -Central Nervous System (brain and spinal cord) -Peripheral Nervous System (cranial and spinal nerves below the CNS) |
| The Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) is divided into two parts | -Autonomic Nervous System (controls automatic body functions -Sensory Somatic Nervous System (controls voluntary actions) |
| Autonomic Nervous System contains two types of nerves | -sympathetic nerves (excited or scared) -parasympathetic nerves (eating or at rest) |
| Parts of a nerve cell | -dendrites -neurons -axon -synapse |
| Dendrites | receive stimuli from the internal and external environment and bring those stimuli to the neurons for interpretation |
| Neurons | are specialized cells that make up nervous system and transmit messages |
| Axon | the part of the nerve cell that connects one neuron with another neuron |
| Synapse | the fluid filled gap between neuron connections |
| 3 main functions of the nervous system | -sensory -motor -integrative all of these functions work together with other body systems to react to stimuli and maintain homeostasis |
| Sensory Functions | -feel pain, heat, and other stimuli -face, fingers, and toes have the most sensory neurons -reflex response |
| Motor Functions | carry electrical impulses from the CNS to the effectors (glands and muscles) |
| Integrative Functions | uses sensory information to make decisions and to develop thoughts |
| Immune System | tissue, cells, organs that fight off illness and disease which are composed of both innate (nonspecific) and adaptive (specific) defenses that are designed to protect the body from pathogens and other foreign invaders. |
| Innate immune defenses include | -first line of defense (skin, mucous membranes, and digestive enzymes) -second line of defense (fever, inflammation, phagocytes, natural killer cells, interferons, chemotaxis, and release cytokines) |
| 4 signs of inflammation | redness heat swelling pain |
| Natural Killer Cells | -produce perforins (pore forming proteins) that target cancer and virus cells -perforins cause cells to lyse (rupture) |
| Interferons | -the body's response to a vial infection and prevent replication of the virus after 7-10 days -activate macrophages and NK cells |
| Chemotaxis | -the method by which the leukocytes (WBC) respond to damaged body tissues. -accomplished through cytokines |
| Cytokines | chemical messengers that are released by damaged tissues |
| Diapedesis | is the process of white blood cells squeezing through capillary slits in response to cytokines followed by cellular adhesion molecules guiding the WBCs to the site of damage or infection. |
| Adaptive Immune defense includes the.... | third line of defense (antibody-mediated and cell-mediated response) |
| Process of the antibody mediated immune response | -antibodies are produced that are specific to the invading antigen -the antigen binds the B cells (lymphocyte) followed by binding with T-helper cells -this activates the B cells to produce antibodies |
| 2 types of antibody mediated response | -active immunity (person receives a vaccine) -passive immunity (person does not produce their own antibodies, but receives them from another source, mother to baby) |
| Process of the cell mediated immune response | -macrophages capture the nonself cells -a T-helper cell binds to it and secretes a cytokine that signals the cytotoxic T cell -the cytotoxic T cell responds through chemotaxis and actively destroys the nonself cell |
