Ex: Little Timmy was in a car and it just drove off the cliff and exploded. Now he could suffer life changing injuries. 😵💀💣💥🌋

Little Jimmy has a boo boo on his knee

Who do you help first?

New cards
13

Maintaining stable internal conditions

New cards
14

120/80 mmHg

120 (Top Number) = Systolic Pressure

80 (Bottom Number) = Diastolic Pressure

New cards
19

Type 1 Diabetes

Develops during childhood

Insulin dependent

High blood Glucose

Severe deficiency of insulin

New cards
20

type 2 diabetes

Develops in adults

Insulin resistant

High Blood Glucos

Cell receptors in the body don't respond to insulin

New cards
21

Insulin

Protein hormone secreted by pancreas, activates receptors to open glucose transporter

New cards
22

Mitochondria

What glucose enters into through the transporter

The powerhouse of the cell 🤓👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆👆

New cards
23

Negative feedback

Stops original action so you can do something more beneficial or quit overall

New cards
24

positive feedback

Supports previous action so you keep doing it

<p>Supports previous action so you keep doing it</p>
New cards
25

Glucagon

hormone that raises blood glucose levels

New cards
26

Glycogen

Stored form of glucose that's many clumped glucose molecules

New cards
27

Glucose

A simple sugar that is an important source of energy.

New cards
28

Pancreas

makes insulin and enzymes to help with digestion

New cards
29

Metabolism

The chemical reaction processes of breaking down molecules for energy and using simple building blocks to to make more complex molecules.

In simple words, digestion system process and how it makes energy and cells

New cards
30

Hormone

Signaling molecule, each kind has specific effects veri cool

New cards
31

Cholesterol

Lipid that helps prevent heart disease and is a waxy substance that is absorbed from food and is transported to all cells. Used to make hormones and vitamins.

New cards
32

LDL

a lipoprotein that transports cholesterol to cells

New cards
33

HDL

a lipoprotein responsible for removing excess cholesterol from the blood stream and transports to the liver

MORE HDL = Not bad because it’s only removing excess

New cards
34

Electrolytes

Minerals in your body juices that help you do regular functions

New cards
35

BUN

Waste products filtered out of the blood by the kidneys. If they're too high, your kidneys aren’t working well. Low BUN gives a chance for liver disease risk

New cards
36

Hyperglycemia

High Blood Glucose

New cards
37

Hypoglycemia

Low Blood Glucose

New cards
38

Ability to share and understand the feelings of another

New cards
43

Hyperthermia

New cards
44

Hypothermia

Abnormal cold body temperature

New cards
45

Systolic Pressure

Pressure in the arteries when heart contracts (Pushes blood throughout the body)

New cards
46

Diastolic Pressure

Pressure in the arteries when the heart is at rest (Allows chambers to fill with blood)

New cards
47

Brachial Artery

Where blood flows and is involved with tracking blood pressure but Idk how just remember that

New cards
48

Hypertension

New cards
49

Produces cholesterol and filters blood and breaks down bad substances

New cards
50

  • WBC

  • Hemoglobin

  • Hematocrit

  • Platelets

New cards
51

New cards
52

Leukocytes (WBC)

Cells that fight infection and maintain health

New cards
53

Hemoglobin

O2 carrying proteins in RBC

New cards
54

Hematocrit

Proportion of RBC (Percentage by volume so another way of saying amount ig)

New cards
55

Platelets

Cell fragments that assist with clotting

New cards
56

Anemia

Condition characterized by a lack of healthy red blood cells or hemoglobin

Without oxygen, water cannot be created in cellular respiration

New cards
57

Carbohydrates

Compounds that are Energy for cells

New cards
58

Lipids

Compounds insoluble to water, secondary source of energy

New cards
59

Protein

Made up of amino acids and a last resort of energy for cells

New cards
60

Nucleic Acids

Biomolecules that carry instructions to producing proteins

not energy

New cards
61

Asthma

Condition causing airways to narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty breathing, chest tightness, and coughing.

New cards
62

71

Look

Signs of abnormalities, injuries, or signs of infection or disease. Changes in the body too.

Listen

Changes to rhythm and predictable sounds the body makes can signal changes in structure and function

Ex:

Heart murmurs may show Mitral valve regurgitation

Noises such as crackles or wheezing indicate the presence of a condition in the lungs such as asthma

New cards
74

Exercise

Lowers body blood glucose and increases your body’s sensitivity to insulin, therefore countering type 2 diabetes

(Less body fat = more insulin sensitivity)

New cards
