What makes Pulmonary Arteries different than most Arteries in the body?
If the toes in your foot are numb, what is one possible problem in the nervous system that could cause this?
How would you describe the difference between structure and function?
Match the structures with the correct function:
| Draggable item | arrow_right_alt | Corresponding Item |
|---|---|---|
This tissue is a combination of plasma (liquid) and cells. | arrow_right_alt | Capillaries |
This is toxic, even in small does, but within certain cells allows them to carry oxygen. | arrow_right_alt | Red Blood cells |
These vessels have thin walls that allow them to exchange gases and nutrients to nearby cells. | arrow_right_alt | Heart Valve |
This substance is required for cells to make ATP (energy). | arrow_right_alt | Alveoli |
These organs are are clusters of tiny sacs that exchange gases. | arrow_right_alt | Blood |
These cells carry signals at the speed of light. | arrow_right_alt | Oxygen |
These cells have no nucleus. | arrow_right_alt | Carbon Dioxide |
This is responsible for generating energy in your cell. | arrow_right_alt | Hemoglobin |
This substance is a waste product, released when you exhale. | arrow_right_alt | Neurons |
This structure is vital for controlling blood flow (one-way) during a heartbeat. | arrow_right_alt | Mitochondria |
