T-lymphocytes are the key cells in acquired immunity.

Cranial nerve VII (CN VII) stimulates the parotid gland.

A white blood cell count above normal (15,000 in a 30-year-old male) indicates leukocytosis.

Vitamin K is necessary for liver production of clotting factors.

Platelets adhere to the sub-endothelial matrix when a blood vessel is damaged.

The route is right atrium, tricuspid valve, right ventricle, pulmonary valve, lungs, left atrium, mitral valve, left ventricle, aortic valve, body.

Immune defense materials play a crucial part in the immune response.

The ability of a biological system to maintain a stable internal environment despite external changes.

A feedback loop where the initial stimulus triggers further amplification of the response.

The cell membrane is composed of phospholipids, cholesterol, and proteins.

The smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is involved in synthesizing lipids, detoxifying harmful substances, and releasing glucose.

The nucleus contains the cell's genetic material (DNA) and is responsible for ribosome synthesis.

Ribosomes are the sites where proteins are synthesized.

A homeostatic regulatory mechanism comprises a receptor, a control center, and an effector.

The cell membrane acts as a barrier, regulates what enters and exits the cell, and plays a role in cell communication.

A type of aphasia characterized by difficulty speaking fluently due to damage to Broca's area in the brain.

A type of aphasia characterized by difficulty understanding language and producing meaningful speech due to damage to Wernicke's area in the brain.

The Cerebellum coordinates skilled movements, regulates posture and balance, and helps with motor learning.

The dominant adrenergic receptor in the heart, responsible for increasing heart rate and contractility.

The fluid portion of blood that lacks fibrinogen and other clotting factors.

Erythropoietin, a hormone produced by the kidneys, directly controls the production of red blood cells.

The thalamus acts as a relay center for sensory information, filtering and directing it to the appropriate areas of the brain.
