    Study Notes

    Meiosis Location

    • Meiosis occurs in the ovaries.

    Tissue Injury

    • Damage to the Achilles tendon involves connective tissue.

    Cell Engulfment

    • Macrophages can engulf other cells.

    Birth Rate & Mortality

    • High infant mortality rates often correlate with variable birth rates.

    Cardiac Cycle

    • The contraction phase of the cardiac cycle is systole.

    Cancer & Viruses

    • Some viruses can cause cancer because they affect genes that control cell division.

    pH Scale

    • A substance with a pH of 3 is ten times more acidic than a substance with a pH of 4.

    Protein Breakdown & Excretion

    • Urea is excreted by sweat glands in response to protein breakdown and ammonia formation.

    Nephron Function

    • Filtrate moves through the nephron in a specific order, starting with the proximal tubule.

    Protein Production

    • The rough endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for protein production.

    Research Methodology

    • Hypothesis generation is a crucial first step in research.

    Golgi Apparatus

    • The Golgi apparatus packages proteins for secretion.

    Scientific Explanation Feedback

    • Peer review is vital for critically evaluating scientific explanations.

    Skin Membrane

    • The skin's membrane is epithelial, also called cutaneous.

    Lung Damage & Gas Exchange

    • Damage to lung alveoli prevents efficient blood carbon dioxide removal.

    Hormone Production

    • The endocrine system primarily produces hormones.

    NADH Breakdown

    • During the breakdown of pyruvate, electrons are transferred to NAD+, producing NADH, which cells use to generate ATP.
