(unit 1)
1. Define physiology
2. Name and describe the 2 processes by which one can explain body functions
3. Structural levels of the human body (8)
4. Basic cell functions that are relevant to physiology
5. Name and describe the 4 primary tissues
6. 2 types of glands
7. intracellular vs extracellular fluid
8. why is homeostasis important for survival *
9. what factors must be homeostatically regulated *
10. how do homeostatic control systems operate- intrinsic vs extrinsic control system*
11. negative vs positive feedback *
12. homeostatic control system – local/body wide, negative/positive, feedforward,
disruption *
(unit 2)
1. overview of cell structure – cell theory, plasma membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm*
2. endoplasmic reticulum
3. golgi complex
4. lysosomes
5. peroxisomes
6. mitochondria, ATP production
7. vaults, cytosol, cytoskeleton
8. storage, replication, expression of genetic information *
(unit 3)
1. membrane structure and composition – plasma membrane, cell junction
2. unassisted membrane transport – diffusion, osmosis, hypotonic/hypertonic *
3. assisted membrane transport – carrier mediated, compare passive/active,
exocytosis/endocytosis *
4. membrane potential – resting potential, sodium-potassium pump *
(unit 4) **
1. neural communication, graded potentials – depolarization, hyperpolarization, how
electrical signals are generated
2. action potentials- voltage gated, contiguous conduction, all or none, myelination
3. synapses, neuronal integration – excitatory, inhibitatory
4. intercellular communication, signal transduction – chemical messengers
5. principles of hormonal communication – hormones, hydrophililc, lipophilic hormones
6. comparison of nervous and endocrine systems –
(unit 5)
1. organization of the nervous system – CNS, PNS, afferent, efferent, interneurons
2. protection and nourishment of the brain – 4 glial cells, cerebrospinal fluid
3. cerebral cortex – anatomy of brain, 4 lobes, hemispheres
