  29. Define Disease
    any change, other than an injury, that disrupts homeostasis
  30. Infectious Disease
    Diseases caused by pathogens and can be spread from person to person

    • INfectious disease: Virus
    • NON-infectious disease: Cancer
  31. Infectious Disease caused by:
    • Inheritance (hemophilia, sickle cell anemia)
    • Environmental Factors (second hand smoke)
    • Pathogens (Viruses, Fungi, protists, worms, bacteria)
  32. What is a Pathogen?
    • "sickness makers"
    • agents that enter the body and disrupt homeostasis
  33. What are the three lines of defense? Explain.
    • 1st line: Nonspecific - "fortress walls"
    • skin, tears, sweat, saliva, mucus, stomach acid, etc
    • 2nd line: If pathogen passes 1st line --> infection; Non-specific

    • recognizes, attacks, destroys, remembers
  34. What are Koch's Postulates?
    • Steps to determining a disease:
    • - Pathogen should be found in the body of sick organism
    • - Pathogen must be isolated and grown
    • - When Pathogen is put into a new host, same disease is caused
    • - pathogen from new host should be re-isolated and identical to original
  35. What are ANTIGENS?
    • Antigen:
    • ANTI - GEN
    • ANTIbody GENorator

    • Molecules/Markers on pathigens that triggers an immune response

    Passive & Active

    • Passive
    • temporary
    • "borrowed immunity"
    • maternal immunity (antibodies come to baby from mother before birth and from mother's breast milk)

    • Active:
    • body produces its own antibodies/Killer T Cells to attack an antigen
    • results from having the disease or getting the vaccination
  37. AIDS
    • HIV attacks helper T-Cells and multiplies
    • HIV causes AIDS
    • A positive HIV result doesn't necessarily means you have AIDS, but if you have AIDS, you are HIV+
    • You don't die from AIDS, you die because something slipped past your immune system and is too weak to fight back
    • HIV/AIDS is spread by unprotected sex and drug use
    • less than 200 T cells determines if you have AIDS
  38. Allergies
    • Rapid immmune system reaction to environmental substances that are normally harmless
    • reacts by releasing antihystamines
    • leads to runny nose, swelling, rash, sneezing
  39. Who are Salk, Sabin, and Enders??? :P
    • Salk used a killed virus to find a vaccine for polio; marinated it in formalin
    • Sabin used a live virus to find a polio vaccine
    • Enders found out how to grow polio in test tubes
  40. Inhaling and Exhaling:
    relationship between volume and pressure
    • Inhaling: volume ^, pressure V
    • Exhaling: volume V, pressure ^
    • (INDIRECT RELATIONSHIP)
  41. Parts of the respiratory system:
    • mouth
    • nose
    • pharynx
    • epiglottis
    • larynx
    • trachea
    • lungs
    • bronchi
    • bronchioles
