Questions and Correct Answers
Define the term biology ✅The study of life
List the common characteristics shared by all living things ✅1. Composed of cells
2. Organized in complex arrangements
3. Detect and respond to stimuli
4. Maintain homeostasis
5. Grow and develop
6. Reproduce
7. Have metabolism
Distinguish between growth and development ✅Growth is an increase in size while
development is maturation
Describe the basic processes in humans and other animals ✅1. Respiration: required
oxygen is obtained from the environment and carbon dioxide is released as waste
(inhale, exhale)
2. Digestion: converts nutrients into simple absorbable substances, mechanically
(chewing your food) and chemically (pectin will break down food)
3. Circulation: internal movement and distribution of oxygen, wastes, and digestion
products, heart muscles pumps blood through your arteries to bring nutrients and get rid
of waste
4. Excretion: undigested food and wastes of metabolism eliminated from body through
bladder (urine, feces, sweat)
Explain the link between anatomy and physiology ✅Anatomy is the structure of
something while physiology is the function of something. Structure and function are
interrelated. Structure determines function
Describe macroscopic and microscopic anatomy ✅Macroscopic can be seen without
the use of a microscope while microscope goes much deeper and a microscope is
needed to view

become flappy, or you could injure yourself depending on the circumstance
What is the order of organization? ✅1. Chemical level
2. Cellular level
3. Tissue level
4. Organ level
5. Organ system level
6. Organism level
Define histology ✅The study of tissues
Identify the 11 organ systems of the human body and describe the major function of
each ✅1. Integumentary: protection; regulates body temperature
2. Skeletal: support, protection, stores minerals from blood
3. Muscular: produces movement, support, heat
4. Nervous: directs responses, coordinates activities
5. Endocrine: directs long-term changes; hormones
6. Cardiovascular: transports substances through blood
7. Lymphatic: defends, returns tissue fluid to blood
8. Respiratory: delivers air, produces sound
9. Digestive: processes food, absorbs nutrients
10. Urinary: eliminates water, salt, waste; controls pH
11. Reproductive: produces sex cells, hormones
