It is designed to transport the ova to the site of fertilization. It produces female sex hormones that maintain the reproductive cycle. 4) Causes an action that helps maintain homeostasis, is a muscle, gland, or an organ capable of responding to a stimulus, specially a nerve impulse. 5) Divides the body into right and left halves- so forward and backward motions of the body or body parts. 6) The living thing called human, human body. 8) The bony cavity containing the eyeball and it's associated muscles, vessels, and other nerves.11) A sensory nerve ending that response to a stimulus in the internal or external environment of an organism. It relays an informational message to a control center along an efferent pathway.13) Is a passive biological system that removes excess, unnecessary materials from the body fluids of an organism, so as to help maintain internal chemical homeostasis and prevent damage to the body. Organs: skin, lungs, kidneys, ureter14) Is comprised of the heart, blood, and blood vessels. The beating of the heart drives the cardiac cycle which pumps blood throughout the body. 15) Two or more organs that work together to perform specific functions. 18) This system enables movement through the contraction of muscles. Muscles are one of the main structures.19) Situated and inside the nose.20) Occurs when the organ systems have a disminished ability to keep the body's internal environment within normal ranges. Imbalances such as wrinkling and thinking of skin, reduced muscle, ect. 21) Regulates vital processes in the body including growth, homeostasis, metabolism, and sexual development. The organs secrete hormones to regulate body processes. The structures would be the pituitary gland, ovaries, thyroid gland. 23) Most homeostatic mechanisms work on this principle. There are conditions exceeding a set limit in one direction that trigger a negative reaction. This returns the system to set point. Ex: When we sweat, when we are cold. 27) Divides the body into top and bottom halves, and has rotational movements. 30) Removes nitrogen that is containing wastes from blood. Includes organs involved in reproduction. Major organs: kidneys, bladder 32) Located within the mouth.34) Affects how your body uses blood sugar known as glucose. 35) Are biological molecules (proteins) that act as catalysts and help complex reactions occurred everywhere in life. Help break down the peptide bonds between the amino acids. Determines which metabolic pathways occur in the cell. A reaction! 36) Is the study of how living things function or work. |

1) Monitors and coordinates internal organ function in response to changes in the external environment. The major structures would be the brain, spinal cord, and the nerves. 3) Divides the body into front and back halves, with sideways movements. 7) Houses the heart and lungs, among other organs.9) The body position that serves as a "starting point" for describing positions & directions for the human body. 10) Breaks down food polymers into smaller molecules to provide energy for the body. Digestive juices and enzymes are secreted to break down the carbohydrates, fat, and protein in food. Primary organs: mouth, stomach, intestines, rectum. 12) Located towards the back or posterior side of the body, includes two named cavities: the cranial cavity and spinal cavity. 16) Sends signals from the CNS & PNS to your muscles. A reflex arc, or simply reflex, is then caused by it signaling be spinal cord, which signals muscles to react. 17) To produce, maintain, and transport sperm and semen. (cells &a fluid) to discharge sperm within the female reproductive tract that enables production of offspring. Major: tested, scrotum, penis. 22) Contains the stomach and other parts of the digestive tract and liver, as well as other organs.24) The study of tiny parts seen only with a microscope. 25) A term used to describe the multitude of chemical reactions constantly going on within the body's cells. It refers to two general types of activity known as anabolism and catabolism. 26) Chambers inside the human body, which hold the internal organs of the body. 28) Protects the internal structures of the body from damage, prevent dehydration, stores fat and produces vitamins and hormones. The structures would be skin, nails, hair, and sweat glands.29) Used in all fields of science throughout the world, including the United States in hospitals. Originated as the result of a request by King Louis to the French Academy of sciences in the early 1790s.31) Holds the reproductive and excretory organs. 33) Delivers oxygen and removes carbon dioxide from blood. Major organs would be lungs, nasal passages, pharynx, larynx, trachea. 37) The study of the body structures we can see with our eyes. 38) Is the study of the form or structure of all living things, including plants & animals. 39) Is a section of the brain responsible for the production of many of the body's essential hormones, chemical substances that help control different cells and organs. Examples would be hunger, sleep, mood, and sex. 40) Really rare, but not impossible. They increase disrupted influences, and are involved in accelerating blood clothing, transiting nerve signals, and stimulating contractions during childbirth. *can be fatal* 41) Located at the front or anterior side of the body, also includes subdivisions.42) To maintain a healthy environment inside the body, the organ systems work together to control factors such as body temperature, blood pressure, blood sugar, water balance, and sodium levels within normal boundaries. It comes from Greek words that mean "staying the same."43) A vascular network of tubules and ducts that collect, filter, and return lymph to blood circulation. It produces and circulates immune cells called lymphocytes. The organs consist of lymph vessels, lymph nodes, thymus, spleen, and tonsils. 44) Sends information to your central nervous system CNS, or peripheral nervous system PNS.
