What houses all of our genetic information in the cell? - answer
Nucleus
Apoptosis - answer process of programmed cell death

diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane
What happenes during alkalosis - answer Ex. vomiting. body is
getting rid of all the H leaving bicarb
Diffusion - answer the process by which molecules move from an
area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
Disorders that cause metabolic alkalosis - answer Vomiting, by
holding onto bicarb
What protein denotes an increased risk of neural tube defects
during an amniocentesis? - answer Alpha fetoprotein
,What gets water moving in and out of cells? - answer Osmosis of
water through a selectively permeable membrane
Down Syndrome - answer a condition of intellectual disability (IQ
<70)and associated physical disorders caused by an extra copy of
chromosome 21.
Wide spaced eyes

What happens at a cellular level during organ rejection? - answer
The ability of recipient T cells to recognize donor-derived antigens,
called allorecognition, initiates allograft rejection. Once recipient T
cells become activated, they undergo clonal expansion, differentiate
into effector cells, and migrate into the graft where they promote
tissue destruction.
-Body releases TH1 cells that release natural killer cells, cytokines
(inflammation), macrophages. They will attack the epithelial cells of
the transplanted organ
Exotoxins - answer An exotoxin is a toxin secreted by bacteria. An
exotoxin can cause damage to the host by destroying cells or
disrupting normal cellular metabolism. They are highly potent and
can cause major damage to the host. Exotoxins may be secreted, or,
similar to endotoxins, may be released during lysis of the cell.
