Study Notes
Nervous Control
- The Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) connects the Central Nervous System (CNS) to the rest of the body, including sensory and motor neurons.
- A neuron consists of a cell body, dendrites (receiving signals), and an axon (transmitting signals).
- Endocrine glands, such as the pituitary, thyroid, adrenal, and pancreas, produce hormones that regulate various bodily functions.
Human Nervous System
- The Human Nervous System comprises the CNS (brain and spinal cord) and the PNS.
- Parasympathetic nerves promote "rest and digest," slowing heart rate and increasing digestive activity.
- Sympathetic nerves activate the "fight or flight" response, increasing heart rate, dilating pupils, and redirecting blood flow to muscles.
Immunity
- The immune system is a complex system within the human body that helps to protect against disease, infection, and potentially harmful foreign substances.
- Innate immunity is the first line of defense, with physical barriers like the skin and mucous membranes responding to pathogens in a generic manner.
- Eosinophils are involved in anti-parasitic immunity, releasing granular proteins that damage parasitic membranes.
- Basophils are non-phagocytic in nature and act quickly to prevent the spread and entry of pathogens.
Plant Reproduction
- Asexual reproduction involves the production of new plants without using seeds, through vegetative propagation.
- Offspring produced through asexual reproduction are exact copies of the parent plant, with rapid growth.
Animal Reproduction
- Asexual reproduction involves the production of offspring without the formation of gametes, with only one parent involved.
- Binary fission is a type of asexual reproduction, where the parent cell divides into two equal parts.
- Budding is a type of asexual reproduction, where an outgrowth from the parent develops into a new individual.
Human Reproductive System
- Contraceptive methods include natural, mechanical, hormonal, and surgical methods.
- Characteristics of an ideal contraceptive include safety, 100% effectiveness, and affordability.
- Barrier methods, such as male and female condoms, are an effective and common method of contraception.
Birth Control
- Hormonal methods, such as oral birth control pills, injections, and implants, are effective and popular methods of contraception.
- Oral birth control pills are over 99% effective, but may have side effects such as breast tenderness and nausea.
- Injections, such as Depo-Provera, are 99.7% effective and provide long-term birth control.
- Implants, such as Norplant, are 99.95% effective and provide long-term birth control.
Nutrition
- Autotrophs, such as plants, produce their own food through photosynthesis.
- Heterotrophs, such as animals, rely on others to absorb nutrients.
- Nutritional requirements for plants include carbohydrates, proteins, fats, and essential nutrients.
- Macronutrients include carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sulfur.
- Micronutrients include iron, manganese, boron, molybdenum, copper, and zinc.
Gas Exchange
- Gas exchange in plants occurs through tiny pores on leaves called stomata, which let in carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
- Turgor pressure helps plant cells stay firm and upright.
