Essential Body
24
Anatomy: study of the structure of the body
Adenosine Triphosphate : energy-storing and energy-transferring molecule found in all cells
Appendicular Skeleton: part of the skeleton that includes the bones of the upper extremities, lower extremities, pelvic girdle, and pectoral girdle
Axial Skeleton: the part of the skeleton that includes the skull, vertebral column, ribs and sternum
Cell: basic unit of life; the structural and functional unit of a living organism
Deoxyribonucleic Acid: nucleotide that stores the genetic information of the organism
Gene: part of the chromosome that codes for a specific trait; the biological unit of heredity
Keratin: a protein found in the skin, hair, nails; it hardens the cells and makes them water resistant
Acid: substance that donates OR releases hydrogen ions when it ionizes in water
Base: substance such as hydroxyl ion that combines with hydrogen ion
Solute: a substance that is dissolved in another substance
Solvent: a substance in which the solute is dissolved or mixed
Pulse: vibration of the arteries caused by rhythmic expansion and recoil of the large arteries following concentration of the ventricles
Meiosis: type of cell division used by the sex cells to reduce the number of chromosomes in each from 46 to 23
Mitosis: type of cell division that produces two identical daughter cells, each containing 46 chromosomes
Nucleus: large organelle separated from the cytoplasm by the nuclear membrane; stores the DNA in chromosomes and acts as the control center of the cell
Mitochondria: organelles that produce most of the ATP; the “power plants” of the cell
Joint: union of two or more bones; an articulation
Ligaments: strong bonds of connective tissue that join bone to bone
Physiology: study of the functioning of the body
Bacteria: single cell organisms classified as cocci, bacilli and curved rods
Carrier: a living organism that harbors a pathogen and acts as a source of infection
Esophagus: the tube like structure that connects the pharynx to the stomach
Energy: ability to perform work
