3. What is the name of the main respiratory pigment?

7. What is the trachea (location and structure)?

Distinguish between pharynx and larynx, bronchiole and bronchus, pleural sac and alveolar sac

8. Define the functions of the human respiratory system. In the diagram (p. 722) label the major components.

Self Quiz 4-11 (p. 723)

4. Using the black lines in Fig. 41.18 as a guide name the types of breakdown products small enough to be absorbed across the small intestine's lining into the internal environment.

Self quiz 1-6, 8-10, Critical Thinking #1 (lactose = glucose+galactose)

Chapter 38 - Circulation

1. State the functions of the circulatory and lymphatic systems. Distinguish between blood and interstitial fluid.

2. Distinguish between systemic and pulmonary circuits.

3. Describe the cellular components of blood then describe the plasma portion.

4. Distinguish between the function of the heart's atria and ventricles. Label the components on the diagram of the heart (p. 684).

2. Distinguish among hormones, neurotransmitters, local signaling molecules, and pheromones.

3. A hormone binds with a receptor on a plasma membrane. It does not enter the cell. Binding activates a second messenger in the cell, which triggers an amplified response to the hormonal signal. State whether the molecule is a steroid hormone or a peptide hormone.
