This diagram depicts the parts of a neuron. A neuron is a basic building block of the nervous system that is responsible for receiving and transmitting information. Dendrites are treelike extensions at the beginning of a neuron that help increase the surface area of the cell body. The cell body is where the signals from the dendrites are joined and passed on. The nucleus is present within the cell body. It produces RNA that supports important cell functions. The axon is the elongated fiber that connects the cell body to the axon endings and transmits the neural signal. The axon is often covered with a fatty substance called the myelin sheath that acts as an insulator.

The diagram below shows the human nervous system. The nervous system conducts stimuli from sensory receptors to the brain and spinal cord and that conducts impulses back to other parts of the body. As with other higher vertebrates, the human nervous system has two main parts: the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (the nerves that carry impulses to and from the central nervous system). The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, sensory organs, and all of the nerves that connect these organs with the rest of the body. Together, these organs are responsible for the control of the body and communication among its parts. The brain and spinal cord form the control center known as the central nervous system.

This is a diagram of the anatomy of a brain. The brain is made up of several parts, as you can see in the picture. The brain has four lobes. The frontal lobe is used for the basic purpose of reasoning. The parietal lobe is used for the sense, touch. The temporal lobe is used for hearing. The occipital lobe is used for sight. The cerebellum is the next largest part of the brain. It controls body position, coordination, and balance.

The diagram shows the anatomy of a multipolar neutron. A multipolar neuron (or multipolar neurone) is a type of neuron that possesses a single (usually long) axon and many dendrites, allowing for the integration of a great deal of information from other neurons. These dendritic branches can also emerge from the nerve cell body. Multipolar neurons constitute the majority of neurons in the brain and include motor neurons and interneurons. It is found majorly in the cerebral cortex. The nerve endings of an axon don't actually touch the dendrites of other neurons. The messages must cross a tiny gap between the two neurons, called the synapse. There are two types of synaptic cells: presynaptic and postsynaptic. The presynaptic cell is the neuron sending the signal. The postsynaptic cell is the structure receiving the signal.

The diagram shows the various parts of the human brain. The three main parts of the brain are the cerebrum, cerebellum and medula.The cerebrum is divided down the middle from the front to the back of the head. The two halves of the cerebrum are called the right and left hemispheres. Each hemisphere is further subdivided into lobes which are shown in this diagram. The lobes shown are frontal lobe, parietal lobe, temporal lobe and occipital lobe. The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain, the next largest part is the cerebellum.The spinal cord is a long, tube-shaped bundle of neurons. Cererbum ontrols conscious functions, such as thinking, sensing, speaking, and voluntary muscle movements. Cerebellum contols body position, coordination, and balance. The main function of the spinal cord is to carry nerve impulses back and forth between the body and brain.

Below is a diagram of the ear. The ear is made up of several parts, as shown in the diagram. Sound waves travel through the ear. Sound waves enter the auditory canal. Then they travel to the ear drum where it sends the vibrations from the sound waves to the inner ear. The sound waves then liquify and go into the cochlea. They then travel through the ear nerves, and is sent to the brain.

This diagram shows the anatomy of the human ear. The human ear is divided into the outer ear which contains the auricle and the earlobe. The outer ear is followed by the middle ear that contains eardrum and tympanic cavity and the ossicles. Lastly, the inner ear followd the middle ear and it contains the semicircular canals, vestibule, cochlea portions. The auditory cacncal connects the outer ear to the middle ear. The eardrum and the tympanic cavity are are at the end of the auditory canal.The vestibular nerve, semicircular ducts and cochlea are after the tympanic cavity. Ossicles are tiny bones in the middle ear that transmit sound from the eardrum to the cochlea. Sound waves travel through the outer ear, are modulated by the middle ear, and are transmitted to the inner ear.

FIGURE 22.1 Male reproductive system as viewed from the side The epididymis is a tube that is about 6 meters (20 feet) long in adults. It is tightly coiled, so it fits inside the scrotum on top of the testes. The epididymis is where sperm mature. It stores the sperm until they leave the body. The vas deferens is a tube that carries sperm from the epididymis to the urethra. The prostate gland secretes a fluid that mixes with sperm to help form semen. Semen is a whitish liquid that contains sperm. It passes through the urethra and out of the body.

This image shows the posterior view of female reproductive system. The female reproductive system (or female genital system) is made up of the internal and external sex organs that function in human reproduction. The female reproductive system is immature at birth and develops to maturity at puberty to be able to produce gametes, and to carry a fetus to full term. The internal sex organs are the uterus and Fallopian tubes, and the ovaries. The uterus or womb accommodates the embryo which develops into the fetus. The uterus also produces vaginal and uterine secretions which help the transit of sperm to the Fallopian tubes. The ovaries produce the ova (egg cells). The external sex organs are also known as the genitals and these are the organs of the vulva including the labia, clitoris and vaginal opening. The vagina is connected to the uterus at the cervix.

The diagram shows the parts and organs of the male reproductive system. The male reproductive organs include the penis, testes, epididymis, Ductus (vas) deferens, and prostate gland. The penis is an external, cylinder-shaped organ that contains the urethra. The urethra is the tube that carries urine out of the body. It also carries sperm out of the body. The testis (testis, singular) are oval organs that produce sperm and secrete testosterone. They are located inside a sac called the scrotum that hangs down outside the body. The scrotum also contains the epididymis. The epididymis is a tube that is about 6 meters (20 feet) long in adults. It is tightly coiled, so it fits inside the scrotum on top of the testes. The epididymis is where sperm mature. It stores the sperm until they leave the body. The vas deferens is a tube that carries sperm from the epididymis to the urethra. The prostate gland secretes a fluid that mixes with sperm to help form semen. Semen is a whitish liquid that contains sperm. It passes through the urethra and out of the body. Also shown are some parts of the digestive system like the rectum and anus.

This diagram shows a blastocyst, which is a small, fluid-filled ball of cells that travels through the fallopian tube until it implants on the wall of the uterus and continues to develop as an embryo. The blastocyst is composed of an outer, circular layer and an internal mass. The outside is known as the trophoblast and looks like a single layer of cells. It will eventually develop into structures that support the developing fetus. The internal mass is called the inner cell mass, also known as the embryoblast. It will eventually develop into a fetus.

This diagram shows the six stages of development of a human embryo, in two rows that are arranged left to right. The first stage, at the top left, is a fertilized egg, which is a single cell. After fertilization, the egg undergoes mitosis, which replicates the cells so that the embryo can grow. The 2-, 4-, 8-, and 16-cell stages each show a progressively larger number of cells, seemingly arranged at random. The final stage is the blastocyst, where the cells appear to form a ball. After this, the embryo will implant on the wall of the uterus and be known as a fetus.

This diagram shows the blastocyst stage in the process of fertilization. The blastocyst has an inner and outer layer of cells. The inner layer is called the embryoblast, will develop into the new human being. The outer layer is called the trophoblast, will develop into other structures needed to support the new organism. This layer surrounds the inner cell mass or the embryoblast and a fluid-filled cavity known as the blastocoele. When the outer cells of the blastocyst embeds itself in the uterine lining or the endometrium. This process is called implantation. It generally occurs about a week after fertilization.

It includes a community, the abiotic factors in the environment, and all their interactions. A biome is a group of similar ecosystems with the same general abiotic factors and primary producers. Biomes may be terrestrial (land-based) or aquatic (water-based). The biosphere consists of all the parts of Earth where life can be found. This is the highest level of organization in ecology. It includes all of the other levels below it. The biosphere consists of all the worlds biomes, both terrestrial and aquatic.

FIGURE 23.21 Intertidal zone along the North Sea in the Netherlands Below 200 meters is the aphotic zone. There are no primary producers here because there isnt enough sunlight for photosynthesis. However, the water may be rich in nutrients because of dead organisms drifting down from above. Organisms that live here may include bacteria, sponges, sea anemones, worms, sea stars, and fish. The bottom of the ocean is called the benthic zone. It includes the sediments on the bottom of the ocean and the water just above it. Organisms living in this zone include clams and crabs. They may be few in number due to relatively scarce nutrients in this zone. There are many more organisms around deep-sea vents. Microorganisms use chemicals that pour out of the vents to make food by chemosynthesis. These producers support large numbers of other organisms, including crustaceans and red tubeworms like those pictured in Figure 23.22.

This diagram depicts the water cycle, which is an important part of the ecosystem. The water in the water cycle exists in three different phases, liquid, solid (ice) and gas (water vapor). Water from lakes and oceans evaporates and is carried by rising air currents in the atmosphere. In the atmosphere the water vapor condenses and forms tiny droplets of water that form clouds. When the droplets get big enough the water comes back to earth in the form of precipitation. Precipitation can be in the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail. Eventually the water evaporates again and the cycle starts over. Water can also enter the atmosphere through trees and plants from a process called transpiration.

This diagram shows the processes of the water cycle. It takes place on, above, and below Earths surface. During the water cycle, water occurs in three different states: gas (water vapor), liquid (water), and solid (ice). Many processes are involved as water changes state to move through the cycle. One of the processes is called Evaporation. It takes place when water on Earths surface changes to water vapor. The sun heats the water and turns it into water vapor which escapes up into the atmosphere. Most evaporation occurs from the surface of the ocean. Sublimation is another process takes place when snow and ice on Earths surface change directly to water vapor without first melting to form liquid water. This also happens because of heat from the sun. Transpiration is yet another process that takes place when plants release water vapor through pores in their leaves called stomata. As the water vapor rises up into the earth's atmosphere, it cools and condenses. Condensation is the process of converting water vapor into water droplets.If the droplets get big enough, they fall as precipitation. Precipitation is any form of water that falls from the atmosphere. Precipitation that falls on land may flow over the surface of the ground. This water is called runoff.The runoff may reach a water body such as an ocean or get soaked into the ground.

This diagram shows the water cycle. Water from lakes, streams, rivers, and other bodies of water evaporates and turns into clouds. This leads to condensation which leads to precipitation in the form of rain and snow. Some of the precipitation adds to the bodies of water and some goes into the ground. The water that goes into the ground is called ground water--some of it eventually makes its way to bodies of water. Water also can come down from mountains and end up in bodies of water--this is called runoff.

photosynthesis

This diagram depicts photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process in which plants synthesize glucose. The process uses carbon dioxide and water and also produces oxygen. The plant gets energy from sunlight using a green pigment called chlorophyll. Photosynthesis changes light energy to chemical energy. The chemical energy is stored in the bonds of glucose molecules. Glucose is used for energy by the cells of almost all living things. Plants make their own glucose.

This diagram represents photosynthesis. Photosynthesis the process in which plants synthesizes glucose. During photosynthesis, it gets its energy from the sun (light energy.) Photosynthesis changes light energy (the energy the plant receives from the sun) to chemical energy. This process uses carbon dioxide and water. In return, it produces oxygen and carbohydrates. It does this by the energy it receives from the sun. The equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2 + 6H2 O + Light Energy C6 H12 O6 + 6O2.
