Catabolic reactions break things down making them smaller or less complex. If the rate of anabolic reaction in the body is much faster than the rate of catabolic reactions which of the following necessary life function will be accomplished? A. movement B. responsiveness C. growth D. digestion Feedback Correct. https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 6 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM Question 5 of 31 Points 1/1 One of the necessary life functions is "excitability or responsiveness". This refers to ________. A. indigestible food residues stimulating the excretory system B. sensing changes in the environment and then reacting or responding to them C. the nervous system causing all living things to sometimes experience anger D. the necessity for all organisms to reproduce Feedback Correct. https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 7 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM Question 6 of 31 Points 1/1 Preventing loss of water is a necessary function for life that would best fit in the category of ________. A. maintaining boundaries B. metabolism C. responsiveness D. excretion Feedback Correct. Preventing loss of water best fits into the category of maintaining a boundary. For example, the cell membrane or cell wall (in plant cells) keep water from leaving, or, the epidermal layer of the skin (stratum corneum) that prevents water from moving outside of the body. https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 8 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM Question 7 of 31 Points 1/1 Choose the answer that correctly lists the survival needs of the body. A. nutrients, water, movement, and reproduction B. nutrients, water, growth, and reproduction C. water, atmospheric pressure, growth, and movement D. nutrients, water, appropriate atmospheric pressure, and oxygen Feedback Correct. https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 9 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM Question 8 of 31 Points 1/1 Homeostasis is the condition in which the body maintains ________. A. the lowest possible energy usage B. a relatively stable internal environment, within limits C. a static state with no deviation from preset points D. a dynamic state within an unlimited range, depending on circumstances Feedback Correct. Homeostasis literally means "staying the same". In the body, various factors like blood pressure, blood glucose concentration, blood oxygen concentration, or body temperature are kept within their particular normal ranges so that the body functions well. If these factors stay abnormal, either too low or too high, then illness, and possibly death, occurs. Homeostasis is sometimes called a dynamic equilibrium, because the body is constantly making adjustments to keep such factors within their normal ranges. https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 10 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM Question 9 of 31 Points 1/1 Choose the correct statement about homeostatic imbalance. A. It is considered the cause of most diseases. B. The internal environment is becoming more stable. C. Positive feedback mechanisms cease. D. Negative feedback mechanisms are functioning normally. Feedback Correct https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 11 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM Question 10 of 31 Points 1/1 Some of the nerve endings in the skin are sensitive to changes in temperature. They are part of a negative feedback mechanism regulating body temperature. These nerve endings are the ________ in the negative feedback mechanism. A. effectors B. control center C. homeostatic balance or "ideal" value D. receptors Feedback Correct The nerve endings sense the initial stimulus, thus they are receptors, they receive a stimulus. Effectors perform the action that stops or reduces the stimulus. An example are sweat glands that release sweat to cool the body, which in turn reduces the heat that was the stimulus. The control center receives the message from the receptor regarding the stimulus and "decides" what needs to be done. Control centers can be located in the brain or in various glands in the body. The homoestatic balance or "ideal" value refers to normal body temperature, pH of the blood, normal blood glucose levels, etc. https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 12 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM Question 11 of 31 Points 1/1 In a feedback mechanism, the receptor sends a message to the control center along the ____________ pathway. A. efferent B. stimulus C. response D. afferent Feedback Correct. Question 12 of 31 Points 1/1 Negative feedback mechanisms maintain homeostasis by causing a variable to change in a direction opposite to that of the initial change, so that the variable returns to its normal state or value. Choose the correct example of a negative feedback mechanism. A. During labor, the hormone oxytocin is released by the posterior pituitary gland to increase contractions. As contractions occur, more oxytocin is released, which increases the strength of contractions and signals the release of even more oxytocin. When the baby is delivered, the hypothalamus stops releasing oxytocin. https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 13 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM B. When the integument (skin) is broken and bleeding occurs, platelets collect at the wound site, stick to the wound, and release more chemicals that signal even more platelets to join. This cascading cycle continues until bleeding is stopped by the platelet plug, causing the signaling and platelets to stop. C. When body temperature increases, this stimulates receptors in the skin to send a message to the control center in the brain. Sweat glands release sweat to the surface of the skin and, as the water evaporates and releases heat, the body returns to normal temperature. D. Production of prolactin in a mother is stimulated when a baby starts breast feeding. Prolactin, in turn, increases milk production and continues to release milk, until the baby stops nursing. Prolactin production stops and no more milk is released. Feedback Correct. Answer C is a negative feedback response because sweating resulted in reversing the initial change, that is, the rise in body temperature. Choices A, B, and D are examples of positive feedback mechanisms that involve a 'cascade', or a more intense release or response, in the same direction as the initial response. Note that positive feedback mechanisms occur for sporadic or non-routine events, whereas negative feedback mechanisms routinely occur in order to maintain homeostasis, such as with body temperature. https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 14 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM Question 13 of 31 Points 1/1 Positive feedback differs from negative feedback because ________. A. positive feedback is generally beneficial while negative feedback is typically harmful B. positive feedback tends to enhance the triggering stimulus while negative feedback tends to return the body to a homeostatic balance or "ideal" level C. positive feedback is critical to health while negative feedback serves only to alert us to potential health threats D. positive feedback provides moment-to-moment wellbeing while negative feedback causes a cascade effect Feedback Correct https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 15 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM Question 14 of 31 Points 1/1 Match the options below to the correct organ system: Controls the body with chemical molecules Endocrine system called hormones. Delivers oxygen and nutrients to the tissues. Cardiovascular system Produces antibodies that attach to foreign Immune system substances. Removes and filters excess fluid from tissues Lymphatic system and also produces lymphocytes, which are white blood cells that fight bacteria, viruses, and other invaders. Helps to maintain electrolytes and blood pH Urinary system levels, as well as filters toxins from the blood. https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 16 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM Question 15 of 31 Points 1/1 Select the correct statement regarding organ systems. A. The immune system is closely associated with the lymphatic system. B. Organ systems operate independently of each other to maintain life. C. The endocrine system is not a true structural organ system. D. Organ systems can be composed of cells or tissues, but not both. Feedback Correct https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 17 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM Question 16 of 31 Points 1/1 What two organ systems overlap in function to maintain the supply of oxygen to the blood and also to remove carbon dioxide from the body? A. endocrine system and respiratory system B. cardiovascular system and the respiratory system C. urinary system and respiratory system D. cardiovascular system and nervous system Feedback Correct. The cardiovascular system, via the blood vessels and pumping action of the heart, transports oxygen to the cells, and carbon dioxide to the lungs. The respiratory system, via the lungs, brings in oxygen and releases carbon dioxide, AND uses blood vessels and the heart to transport oxygen and carbon dioxide. https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 18 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM Question 17 of 31 Points 1/1 The organ systems that work together to maintain the pH of the blood are the A. respiratory and digestive systems B. respiratory and endocrine systems C. respiratory and urinary systems D. cardiovascular and urinary systems Feedback Correct. To maintain blood pH, the lungs help to regulate carbon dioxide by expiration (breathing out), and the kidneys release or absorb hydrogen ions or bicarbonate ions. Question 18 of 31 Points 1/1 Which organ system would be most affected by a lower than normal atmospheric pressure? A. Reproductive system B. Endocrine system C. Respiratory system https://www.classmarker.com/online-test/start/results/?quiz=9xn66c51e2270c45 Page 19 of 35 SI131 Ch 1 FA24 8/27/24, 11:11 PM D. Urinary system Feedback Correct. Atmospheric pressure is the weight of the air outside the body. Within the lungs, the alveoli (sacs where gas exchange occurs) also have pressure. Intra-alveolar pressure is the pressure inside the alveoli. When a person inhales, atmospheric pressure must be greater than intra-alveolar pressure so that oxygen moves into the lung tissue easily. When a person exhales, intra-alveolar pressure is greater than atmospheric pressure in order to release carbon dioxide easily.
