|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Skeletal System
blood cell production
|
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
stimulates the development of the maturing ovarian follicle
|
give nutrients to the fetus
Function of placenta
|
nonspecific defense
barriers that separate the organism from its environment
|
They function in the humoral immunity component of the adaptive immune system by secreting antibodies.
The function of B cells
|
|
Nervous System
transmits signals between different parts of the body
|
Leutenizing hormone (LH)
triggers ovulation
|
in the placenta, alcohol follows nutrients across the interstitial space from the maternal to the fetal blood supply. The baby gets as much alcohol as the mother gets.
Why is consuming alcohol while pregnant harmful to the fetus?
|
specific defense
inflammation
|
hunt down and destroy cells that are infected with germs or that have become cancerous
The function of T cells
|
|
Circulatory System
transports nutrients/blood
|
Progesterone
prepare the endometrium for the reception and development of the fertilized ovum
|
to get all of the fluid out of their lungs
Why is it beneficial for babies to cough or cry when first born?
|
nonspecific defense
Stomach acid
|
occurs when tissues are injured by bacteria, trauma, toxins, heat, or any other cause. The damaged cells release chemicals including histamine, bradykinin, and prostaglandins. These chemicals cause blood vessels to leak fluid into the tissues, causing swelling.
What is an inflammatory response?
|
|
Endocrine System
produces and secretes hormones
|
Testosterone
the hormone responsible for the secondary sexual characteristics that develop in the male during adolescence and stimulates spermatogenesis.
|
the fallopian tube
Where does fertilization occur?
|
nonspecific defense
Mucus, which traps bacteria and small particles
|
reduce the strength of the body's immune system
What do anti-rejection drugs do?
|
|
Integumentary System
acts as a barrier to protect the body from the outside world
|
Estrogen
helps regulate the menstrual cycle, controlling the growth of the uterine lining during the first part of the cycle
|
the uterus
Where does implantation occur?
|
specific defense
