live in the internal environment

4.

Definition of Gradients:

a)

determine which substance enter and leave the cell

b)

direct the production of different proteins which lead to differences in function in different cells

c)

are uneven distribution of a material or property over an area (pressure, temp, chemical concentration).

5.

Definition of Permeability

a)

determines what substances enter and leave the cell

b)

process that results in the wide range of cell structures and functions in the body.

c)

uneven distribution of material or property over an area (pressure, temp, chemical concentration)

6.

Definition of cellular differentiation

a)

determines what substances enter and leave the cell

b)

within the DNA direct the production of different proteins which lead to differences in function in different cells

c)

the process that results in the wide range of cell structures and functions in the body

7.

Definition of Genes

a)

are an uneven distribution of a material or property over an area (pressure, temp, chemical concentration)

b)

within DNA direct the production of different proteins which leads to differences in function in different cells

c)

determines what substances enter and leave the cell

8.

Definition of Cell membrane mechanisms

a)

determine what substances enter and leave the cell. Also allows the cell to respond to certain signals and not others.

b)

processes are involved in all metabolic reactions

c)

occurs via membrane receptors

9.

definition of cell to cell communication

a)

involved in all metabolic reactions

b)

communication occurs via membrane receptors

c)

determines what substances enter and leave the cell

10.

Feedback loops

a)

results in the wide range of cell structures and functions in the body

b)

occur via membrane receptors

c)

maintain homeostatic processes; negative feedback loops maintain most homeostatic process by stabilizing internal conditions

11.

a)

determining what substance enter and leave the cell

b)

balance of cellular water, electrolytes and pH

pressure, water, energy, food and time

c)

water, shelter, entertainment and pressure

d)

oxygen, water, heat, food and pressure

13.

what feedbacks are used in homeostatic mechanisms?

a)

forward feedback

b)

reversed feedback

c)

negative feedback

d)

positive feedback

14.

Negative Feedback

a)

prevents sudden, sever changes in the body

b)

produce temporary unstable conditions to maintain overall stability

15.

Positive Feedback

a)

prevents sudden, severe changes in the body

b)

Produce temporary unstable conditions to maintain overall stability
