    Study Notes

    Anesthesiology

    • Anesthesiologist specializes in anesthesia (choosing and administering it).

    Anatomy (Sternum)

    • Xiphoid process is the small tip of the sternum.

    Biology (Symbiosis)

    • Mutualism describes the relationship between nitrogen-fixing bacteria and legumes (a beneficial relationship).

    Medical Procedures (Eye Examination)

    • Eye drops enlarge pupils to allow doctors to examine the eye's interior
    • Sunglasses are required after pupil dilation to filter harmful light.

    Medical Cases and Evidence

    • Evidence from a patient's repeated strep throat linked it to reusable cups not being washed at school.

    Botany (Plant Reproduction)

    • Pollen grain is the mature microgametophyte (male gametophyte).

    Energy and the Environment

    • Fossil fuels' disadvantages include the production of carbon dioxide (a greenhouse gas).

    Environmental Concerns (Air Pollution)

    • Carbon monoxide is an odorless, poisonous air pollutant formed during industrial waste burning.

    Plant Anatomy (Chromosome Numbers)

    • Gametophyte has a haploid chromosome number.

    Energy Conservation

    • All given answers are examples of energy conservation.

    Ecology (Pollination and Bees)

    • Bee death can result in reduced plant pollination due to lack of pollination services.

    Nuclear Power

    • Meltdown is a severe nuclear reactor overheating event.

    Water Treatment

    • Chlorine gas and ozone disinfect drinking water.

    Disease Transmission

    • Vectors carry diseases (e.g., mosquitoes carrying Zika).

    Plant Reproduction (Double Fertilization)

    • Endosperm, a result of double fertilization, provides food for the developing embryo.

    Plant Diversity (Gymnosperms)

    • Gymnosperms produce naked seeds.

    Biology (Connective Tissue)

    • Connective tissues have three components: extracellular matrix, cells, and fibers.

    Medical Complications (Anesthesia)

    • Malignant hyperthermia is a severe allergic reaction to general anesthesia.

    Plant Structure (Gynoecium)

    • Sepals are not part of the gynoecium (female reproductive structure).

    Sensory Systems and Reflexes

    • Facial nerve damage can affect the stapedial reflex (sound sensitivity mechanism).

    Botany (Flower Families)

    • Daisies are related to asters.

    Biology (Biological Functions)

    • Muscle strength is the product of muscles working with tendons.

    Environmental Pollution

    • Discarded water bottles, and sulfur dioxide are chemical and physical pollutants.

    Anatomy of Tissues

    • Dense regular tissue is not present in cartilage.

    Plant Biology (Ground Tissue)

    • Parenchyma is the ground tissue in citrus fruits.

    Behavioral Science (Eating Disorders)

    • Dieting can mask bulimia nervosa.

    Biology (Cultivars of Plants)

    • Cultivars are specific varieties of plants.

    Plant Growth

    • Dicot roots grow from radicles.

    Medicine (Treatment of Dyspnea)

    • Dyspnea treatment depends upon the specific cause.

    Anatomy (Hollow Organs)

    • Sphincters are circular muscle tissue surrounding hollow organs.

    Plant Reproduction

    • Antheridia are the male gametangia of ferns.

    Treatment for Bulimia

    • Multiple treatment methods are effective for bulimia nervosa.

    Anesthesia Complications

    • All provided options are possible side effects of anesthesia.

    Plant Reproduction (Fruit Function)

    • Fruits protect and disperse seeds.

    Anesthesia and Surgery

    • The patient should be in stage 3 of general anesthesia for surgical procedures.

    General Anesthesia

    • The provided mnemonic FRE123 can be used to help understand different stages of general anesthesia.
