1. First Anatomy and Physiology test Monday Sept 13th!!! 1- systems and functions 2- science you should already know and why you need to know it

2. Overview of the Systems of the Body Circulatory system: blood circulations with heart and blood vesselsCirculatory system

3. Digestive system: processing food with mouth, stomach and intestinesDigestive system

4. Endocrine system: communicating within the body using hormonesEndocrine system

5. Immune system: defending against disease-causing agentsImmune system

6. Integumentary system: skin, hair and nailsIntegumentary system

7. Lymphatic system: structures involved in the transfer of lymph between tissues and the blood streamLymphatic system

8. Muscular system: moving the bodyMuscular system

9. Nervous system: collecting, transferring and processing information with brain and nervesNervous system

10. Reproductive system: the sex organsReproductive system

11. Respiratory system: the organs used for breathing, the lungsRespiratory system

12. Skeletal system: structural support and protection through bonesSkeletal system

13. Excretory/urinary/renal system: the kidneys and associated structures involved in the production and excretion of urineExcretory/urinary/renal system

14. Science you should already know and why you need to review it. Four macromolecules: –Carbohydrates –Proteins –Lipids –Nucleic Acids

15. Why are carbs important? Glucose is taken in by cells of the body and broken down to obtain it’s energy Too much glucose gets stored in liver Not enough glucose, liver releases it Diabetics need to regulate carb. Intake Low carbs diet craze – good or bad?

16. Why are proteins important? Main component of muscles (skeletal, cardiac and smooth) Enzymes are proteins (ex lactase) Proteins in nerve cells allow for nervous impulse to transmit

17. Why are lipids important? Main component of all cell membranes Many vitamins are fat soluble Cushioning and protection Too much or too little causes health problems

18. Why are nucleic acids important? DNA is the nucleic acid that dictates all of you traits Genetic disorders are due to problems with DNA sequences RNA helps to build proteins for the body

19. Enzymes work by? Lowering activation energy to break down or put together molecules Why Important? –Almost all chemical processes in the body are driven by enzymes. –If enzyme is not working = illness Ex. lactose intolerance

20. ATP is important because? It is the key energy molecule that cells use for driving chemical reactions Glucose is converted into many ATPs ATP does work for all cells –Ex. ATP is needed everytime a muscle contracts or a nerve cell fires

21. We eat and breathe because? We eat mainly to obtain glucose so we can eventually energy for our cells (ATP) We breathe because oxygen is needed to fully break down glucose into ATPs Food and oxygen is required for the process of cellular respiration

22. Chemical equation for eating and breathing Chemical equation for cellular respiration is 6C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2  6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + energy(ATP) Glucose + Oxygen  Carbon Dioxide + Water + ATP

23. Mitosis is important because? When cells are damaged or destroyed mitosis is the process that replaces the cells with new ones that are identical to the old ones When an organism grows, mitosis is the process that makes new cells

24. Draw and label a typical animal cell below

25. An ion is? Cation = positively charged ion due to a loss of electrons –Ex. Ca+ needed for a muscle to contract, Na+ and K+ needed for a nerve impulse Anion = negatively charged ion due to gain of electrons –Ex. HCO 3 – maintains blood pH

26. An isomer is? Molecules with the same chemical formula and often with the same kinds of bonds between atoms, but in which the atoms are arranged differently. –Ex glucose and fructose are both C 6 H 12 O 6 but they are different – your cells use glucose directly but must convert fructose to use it

27. Difference between structural and molecular formula is? Structural formula is a graphical picture of how a molecule is arranged Molecular formula is an expression of the types and numbers of atoms in a molecule –Glucose and fructose again as examples

28. Ionic bonds are? An ionic bond is an electrical attraction between two oppositely charged atoms or groups of atoms Na+ and Cl- attract to become NaCl or salt Important because these chemicals disassociate easily in water and can then be used to form ion gradients

29. Covalent bonds are? Bonds formed between elements due to sharing of electrons Very strong bonds Important because –Carbon chains are covalent, cellular structures and macromolecules are carbon based molecules –When a covalent bond is broken – lots of energy is released that can be used by the cells of the body (ex glucose broken down)

30. Polar and non-polar molecules differ because? Polar molecules – “like” water, they dissolve in water (ex salts, water soluble vitamins, ions) Non-polar – “fear” water and don’t dissolve in water (ex, lipids, hydrocarbon chains) Why important? Basis for cells even existing, cell membrane is formed using polar and non-polar molecules

32. Valence electrons are important because? The electrons in the outermost shell of atoms determine type of bonds to be formed Also these electrons have potential energy for our cells to use –When hydrogen loses it’s one valence electron it becomes nothing more than a proton = H+ –Proton “pumps” keep cells working

33. Carbon is especially important to life because? Living organisms are carbon-based life forms. –The molecules that make up our cells (carbs, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids) are ALL made out of carbon chains
