Cells: • Shrink/crenate in hypertonic solution • Water leaves cell • Swell, can lyse in hypotonic solution • Water enters cell • Remains the same in isotonic solution • Water enters and leaves cell at same rate
Macromolecules • Carbohydrates • Lipids • Proteins • Nucleic acids
Carbohydrates • Made up of sugars for energy and structure • Monosaccharides for quick energy • Dissacharides for short storage • Polysachharides for long storage and forming structures • Glycogen, cellulose, chitin
Lipids: • Triglycerides: fats and oils • Phospholipids: primary component of cell membrane • Steroids: cell signaling. Can pass trhough lipid membranes. • Waxes: Protection and prevents water loss.
Proteins: • The building blocks of proteins are 20 types of Amino Acids. • Amino acids join together to form peptides, polypeptides, and polypeptide chains. • Structural proteins and enzymes.
Nucleic Acids: • Nucleortides: building blocks of nucleic acids. Contains a phosphate, a nitrogenous base and a 5-carbon sugar. • DNA, RNA, and ATP.
Blood pH • pHbelow 7: acid. • pHabove 7: base • pH=7: amphoteric (neutral) • Buffers resist pH changes. • More carbon dioxide in the blood equals more acid=lower pH • Blood pH= 7.35 • Acidosis= pH below 7.35 • Depresses the nervous system • Coma state • Alkalosis= pH above 7.45 • Overexcites the nervous system • Convulsions of the body
Levels of Organization: Atom – hydrogen atom, lithium atom Molecule – water molecule, glucose molecule Macromolecule – protein molecule, DNA molecule Organelle – mitochondrion, Golgi apparatus Cell – muscle cell, nerve cell Tissue – loose connective tissue, muscle tissue Organ – skin, femur Organ System – skeletal system, digestive system Organism - human
Homeostasis • The body’s maintenance of a stable environment • Homeostatic Mechanisms: the factors that control the different aspects of the environment and corrects the changes: • Receptors - provide information • Control center - tells what a particular value should be • Effectors - causes responses to change internal environment
Anatomical Terminology • Anatomical Position – body standing erect, facing forward, upper limbs at the sides, palms facing forward • Terms of Relative Position • Superior versus Inferior • Anterior versus Posterior • Medial versus Lateral • Proximal versus Distal • Superficial versus Deep
Body sections • Sagittal/midsagittal • Transverse(cross) • Coronal(frontal) • oblique
