Anatomy is the physical structure of living things.

Physiology is physical and chemical processes that allow the body to function.

Homeostasis is the body's ability to maintain a stable and balanced state.

Negative feedback is the mechanism that counteracts a change in condition.

Positive feedback does not reverse the change, but brings the body further from the starting state.

Four types of tissues are epithelial, muscle, connective and nervous.

Epithelial tissue is the outer layer of the skin and protects the body's surfaces.

Muscle tissue helps the body move.

Nervous tissue is the body's signal to function.

Connective tissue supports the bones and muscles.

These four types of tissues all work together for the human body to function.

Hi! My name is Kaylee and I am a biology major in my third year! My name was mostly random, but my dad liked the nickname Kay and went off of that. They had many different baby name books and were back and forth! I also do not have a middle name, because they said the first name was too difficult of a choice.

The four different types of tissues present within the human body are Epithelial tissue, Connective tissue, Muscle tissue, and Nervous tissue.

Epithelial tissue protects the body by covering it's body surfaces and can also line the body's organs

Connective tissue connects and protects the other tissues, by having cells surrounding it

Muscle Tissue contracts through produce movement

Nervous tissue detects changes and then sends the signal throughout the body

Active transport is against a concentration gradient (low to high concentration) and thus requires energy in the form of ATP.

Passive transport is along the concentration gradient (high to low concentration), so it does not require energy to occur.

# data[].attributes.body
Deamination is the process of removing an amino group from a molecule containing one, usually an amino acid.

Transamination is adding an amino group to a molecule, thus usually forming a new amino acid.

Beta-Oxidation is the breakdown of fatty acids, taking place in the mitochondria. This is how acetyl-CoA is formed.

Anatomy is the study of the structure of the body and how body parts are organized.

Physiology is how the body and it's parts function.

Homeostasis is how the body is able to maintain a stable interior environment regardless of the changes inside or outside of the body.

Negative Feedback is the mechanism that switches or lowers a change in order to bring the body back to it's regular state.

Positive Feedback is the mechanism that raises and enhances a change until the certain function is done.

Hi everyone!

My name is Lexi DeGroat and I am a sophomore health science major at QU!

My full name is Alexandria and my parents wanted to be a little different with my name because Alexandra was becoming too popular when I was born. They also wanted my name to have a nickname with it so they picked Lexi.

Nervous: responsible for transmitting messages throughout the body, thus being able to control body parts.

Epithelial: The tissue on the body's surface. It also lines internal organs.

Connective: The most abundant type of tissue. Serves many functions and consists of an extracellular matrix.

Muscle: Responsible for movement and contraction. Three types: Smooth, skeletal, and cardiac.

# data[].attributes.body
Anatomy is the study of the physical structures and parts belonging to an organism.

Physiology is the study of the function of anatomical structures. Anatomy and physiology relate to each other through the linkage of structure and function.

Homeostasis is an organism's ability to maintain a stable and balanced internal environment.

Negative feedback mechanisms bring the internal environment of an organism back to homeostasis after the environment deviates from stability through reverse changes.

Positive feedback is the amplification of a certain process to meet a goal or requirement.

Hi!

My name is Nick, and I am a sophomore biomedical science major. My parents chose my name because they wanted some kind of biblical name for their first son. My middle name, Jorge, is more intentional because my father, along with many other people in my family, carries that name. I'm not sure if there's any more to it, but I'm glad because I think my name suits me well.

# data[].attributes.body
The four types of tissues are epithelial, muscle, nervous, and connective tissue. Epithelial tissue is special because it lines internal organs like the skin and digestive track.

Muscle tissue supports the movement of the body through 3 subtypes of muscle tissue: skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle.

Nervous tissue contains neurons that can take in sensory information and cause a response, allowing the body to react to changes in the environment.

Connective tissue support for the structure of the body by connecting bones and muscles together.

Anatomy is the study of the physical structures of an organism.

Physiology is the study of how each said structure in the body functions. It essentially explains the internal processes that occur to make an organism work properly.

Homeostasis is how the body maintains an internal balance. There are two types of ways homeostasis regulate the body, Negative Feedback and Positive Feedback.

Negative Feedback brings the body towards equilibrium. For example, our bodies need to be within a certain temperature range to function properly. So, when body temperature raises either too high or too low, homeostasis brings these levels back to normal.

Positive Feedback, on the other hand, brings the body away from equilibrium by either amplifying a response or damaging it. An example of this is when someone gets a bad cut, the body moves away from equilibrium by producing large amounts of platelets/blood clots in order to reduce blood loss.

Hello!

My name is Amaya Acevedo. I am a sophomore Health Science major on the Pa-Prep Track. My name doesn't have any real meaning, my parents just liked the way it sounded. The only "rule" they made was that it had to be a name that could be shorten into a pretty nickname. So my parents liked the sound of "My" or "Maya" and decided on the name Amaya.

My name is Griffin Teiner, and I'm a sophomore. My siblings and I all have names that start with the letter G, so being the youngest meant being called their names before my parents would realize that they called me their name instead of mine.

Anatomy is the study of the body's physical structures. Physiology is defined as the study of how those physical structures work. Homeostasis is the body's automatic process to keep a steady, balanced internal state. This helps the body thrive in the face of changes in temperature, blood sugar, and water levels. A negative feedback mechanism is when a change in a system causes reactions that work to reverse or reduce that change. A positive feedback mechanism is when a system amplifies or accelerates an initial change.

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to Anatomy and Physiology 1 this Fall Semester! I am your instructor for this course and I will be there with you all along the way. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me anytime, just to say hi or when you need help with anything. Looking forward to a successful semester!

Story of my name: My name is a pretty common name in Sikh community, the uniqueness lies in the naming process in Sikhism. When the newborn is 40 days old, the newborn makes their first visit to the Gurdwara (a Sikh Temple) where the priest will bless the baby and open the Sikh Holy Book called The Granth Sahib, whichever page the book opens to, the first alphabet of the first new verse that starts on that page is the alphabet with which the baby's name will start. So on my first visit to the Gurdwara, the alphabet happened to be "J" and thus my parents named me Jasvinder. Another unique naming practice in Sikhism is that names are gender neutral, we have same names for males and females alike! :)
