Human Anatomy & Physiology I

Exam #1 Study Guide

Introduction
1. Know the descriptions of the different levels of organization of the body.
2. Know the different systems of the human body and examples of some of the functions of each.
3. Know the definition of life processes, examples & descriptions of these processes.
4. Know the body’s survival needs and the importance of each (if given).
5. Be able to define homeostasis.
6. Know the 4 parts of the feedback system and the descriptions of each. In addition know the 2
types/descriptions of feedback systems in the body.
7. Know the directional terms, regional terms and body planes and well as a description of each.
8. Know the breakdown of the body cavities and the organ(s) found in each.
9. Understand the organization of the membranes of these body cavities.

Basic Biochemistry
1. Know the basic elements that compose the majority of the human body.
2. Be able to define element, atom, molecule, compound and mixture.
3. If given an element from the periodic table, be able to identify the element, atomic number and
atomic mass. In addition be able to tell me the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons that
element has.
4. Know the basic characteristics of the proton, neutron and electron.
5. Be able to tell me the number of electrons each orbital holds and what the valence orbital is and
what its electrons are involved in.
6. Be able to define chemical bond, covalent bond, ionic bond and hydrogen bond.
7. Be able to determine the role of electrons in covalent (single, double & triple), ionic and hydrogen
bonds. (i.e. they are shared (how many), one is lost, one is gained, orbit unequally etc…)
8. Know the definitions of polar and nonpolar molecules and examples of each.
9. Know the 4 main biomolecules, general characteristics (ex. protein structures, hydrophilic,
hydrophobic) of each, how each is created (reaction, monomers, specific bond names, etc…) and
the function(s) and example(s) of each.
10. Know the basic characteristics of acids and bases.

Cells
1. Know the 4 parts of the cell theory.
2. Know the basic characteristics of the cell membrane including the types and functions of proteins
found within it.
3. Be able to identify the 3 types of cellular junctions.
4. Know the names, descriptions and functions of the organelles discussed in class.
5. Know the basic descriptions of the membrane transport processes and understand how each moves
items across the cell membrane. Know whether they are active or passive. Be able to tell me which
direction a substance/fluid will move in a given situation.
6. Understand the processes of mitosis, meiosis, DNA replication, transcription and translation.
7. Know the steps of meiosis and the resulting cell number & genetic makeup of those cells
following meiosis I and II.
8. Know the definitions of gametes and crossing-over; know the reason for crossing over.
