Cohesion

#3
Front (Question)

The element with the highest percentage in the human body?

Back (Answer)

Oxygen (65%)

#4
Front (Question)

In this bonding, there is a complete transfer of one or more valence electrons. This is usually seen in salt (NaCl)

Back (Answer)

Ionic Bond

#5
Front (Question)

What is an Ionic Bond?

Back (Answer)

Metal atoms loses electrons to nonmetal atoms

#6
Front (Question)

What is a Covalent Bond?

Back (Answer)

Non metal atoms sharing electrons

#7
Front (Question)

What is a Hydrogen Bond?

Back (Answer)

Nonmetal atoms that attract electronegative and electrostatically

#8
Front (Question)

It is when an atom loses,gains, and shares electrons to fill their valence shell with 8 electrons. What is this called?

Back (Answer)

The Octet Rule

#9
Front (Question)

It is the movement of matierials through a membrane against a concentration gradient and requires ATP from the cell. What is this called

Back (Answer)

Active Transport

#10
Front (Question)

It is the difference in the charge and the chemical concentration across the plasma membrane. What is this called?

Back (Answer)

Electrochemical gradient

#11
Front (Question)

What is the pH of blood?

Back (Answer)

7.35-7.45

#12
Front (Question)

List 2 importance of Electrolytes in our body?

Back (Answer)

• Fluid Balance • Muscular Contraction

#13
Front (Question)

What are the 3 subatomic particles of atoms

Back (Answer)

• Protons (+) • Neutrons • Electrons (-)

#14
Front (Question)

Acids are the compounds that, when dissolved in water, dissociate to give….?

Back (Answer)

Hydrogen + (H+)

#15
Front (Question)

Bases are compounds that, when dissolved in water, dissociate to give…?

Back (Answer)

Hydroxide (OH -)

#16
Front (Question)

An ion that has LOST an electron and is positively charged, is called?

Back (Answer)

Cation (+)

#17
Front (Question)

An ion that has gained an electron and is negatively charged, is called a?

Back (Answer)

Anion (-)

#18
Front (Question)

What is the bond for Sodium and Chloride (NaCl)

Back (Answer)

Ionic Bond

#19
Front (Question)

Differentiate Hydrostatic and Osmotic

Back (Answer)

Hydrostatic - water is pushed out of blood vessels, causing edema in tissues. Osmotic - water is moved from a high concentration to a low concentration. water is sucked into vessels causing blood pressure to elevate.

#20
Front (Question)

Name the types of Diffusions

Back (Answer)

Passive Transport Osmosis Diffusion

#21
Front (Question)

Name fluid compartments of the body

Back (Answer)

Intracellular Fluid Extracellular Fluid Intercellular Fluid

#22
Front (Question)

Explain the difference between active transportation and diffusion

Back (Answer)

Active Transport requires energy (ATP from the cells) Diffusion does not require any energy
