Anatomy Chapter 1
Across
- 4. an organisms ability to produce new cells for growth, maintenance, and repair
- 5. study of structure or form
- 7. maintaining consistency internal environment, or "steady state," in response to the changing internal/external conditions
- 8. this level consists of groups of similar cells performing common functions
- 9. resulting action will always be in the opposite direction of the stimulus
- 11. this level consists of the smallest living structures
- 14. this level consists of two or more tissue types that work together to perform specific, complex functions
- 15. all organisms exhibit a complex structure and order
- 19. this level is the simplest level of organization, it involves atoms and molecules
- 20. body structure that detects changes in a variable
- 21. ability to sense and react to stimuli
- 22. this level consists of all body systems that function interdependently
- 23. sum of all chemical reactions that occur in the body
Down
- 1. this level consists of related organs that work together to achieve a common function
- 2. during life, organisms often exhibit increased ______ and increased specialization as related to form and function _______.
- 3. membrane that lines the internal body wall surface
- 4. ability to adjust or direct internal bodily function in face of environmental changes
- 6. interprets input and initiates changes to the effector
- 10. a change in the variable
- 11. large molecules broken down into smaller molecules
- 12. brings about the change to alter the stimulus
- 13. stimulus is reinforced to continue in the same direction until a climactic event
- 16. small molecules join to form larger molecules
- 17. membrane that covers the external surface of the organs
- 18. study of function of the body parts
