Vertebrate Physiology Study Guide Last Part of Chapter 10 □ Cilia are specialized for odor detection (They have receptors and second messenger machinery □ Mucus from the olfactory glands traps odorants □ Linda Buck identified a large family of odorant receptor genes in rats(1‚000 types); belong to the G protein associated 7-transmembrane receptor family □We only have 400 odorant receptors; the olfactory system appears to use combinations of receptors(words) to greatly reduce the number of

The Process of Lowering into a Squat The squat exercise is an excellent way to build strength in the lower body and the lower back. There are many variations of the squat such as the dumbbell squats‚ front squats‚ power squats‚ hack squats and the basic squat. During a proper squat‚ the subject’s feet should be parallel and their back should be straight‚ while going as deep as tolerated without the knees going past the toes. The movements that occur during the lowering portion of the squat are

I Search Paper Savannah Clark Michaella Tran On the topic of skeletal diseases‚ I have no prior knowledge. I am aware that a skeletal disease is a medical condition that affects the bones‚ but that is the extent of my knowledge. While completing research for this paper‚ I would like to become educated of all the skeletal diseases that exist‚ and their harmful effects to the body. I would like to gain knowledge of the deficiencies of the bones that these diseases create. The skeletal system

Anatomy of the Female Reproductive System The reproductive role of the female is far more complex than that of a male. Not only must she produce gametes‚ but her body must prepare to nurture a developing embryo for a period of approximately nine months. Ovaries‚ the female gonads‚ are the primary reproductive organs of a female‚ and like the male testes‚ ovaries serve a dual purpose: They produce the female gametes (ova) and sex hormones‚ the estrogens * and progesterone (pro-ges′tĕ-rōn).
