A&P lab exam 1 Flashcards
what does random movement and collisions do?
causes molecules to become evenly distributed
isotonic
no net osmosis
some concentration in and out
hypertonic
higher concentration solutes
cell losses water
shrivels up
hypotonic
lower concentration solutes
cell gains water
lyse
why do red blood cells lack mitochondria and organelles
so they don’t use oxygen
phagocytosis
cell eating
has receptors
pinocytosis
cell drinking
cells of intestines
nonspecific
receptor-mediated
highly specific
insulin binds to receptors (enzymes, cholesterol, hormones)
lower molecular weight diffuses faster or slower?
faster
classification of epithelia
squamous, cuboidal, columnar
simple squamous
quick diffusion (lungs)
simple cuboidal
secretion & absorption (urinary system –> kidneys)
simple columnar
absorption (digestive system)
stratified squamous
protection (integumentary -> skin)
stratified cuboidal
protection (glands)
stratified columnar
protection & secretion (reproductive system)
seudo-stratified columnar
filters air with cilia (trachea)
transitional epithelial
no specific shape
stretches bladder
layers of integumentary system
epidermis
dermis
sebaceous layer (hypodermis)
stratum corner
outermost layer
dead skin
stratum lucidum
thick skin only
stratum granulosum
abundant granules in cells
stratum spinous
largest layer
where keratin is made
gets nutrients from dermis that are diffused
stratum basale
basement
mitosis for entire epidermis
has melanocytes
in dermis layer
hair follicles
sebaceous glands
sweat glands
long bones
humerus
flat bones
sternum
very flat
short bones
heel, ankle bones
irregular bones
only vertebrate
tuberosity
large, rounded projection
crest
narrow ridge of bone
truchanter
large, blunt, irregularly shaped
line
narrow ridge of bone (less prominent than crest)
tubercle
small, rounded projection
epicondyle
raised area above condyle
spine
sharp pointed projection
process
bony prominence
facet
smooth surface where bones attach
condyle
rounded articular projection
foramen
hole in bone
meatus
canal like passageway
sinus
cavity in bone (can’t see through, divot)
fosa
basin like depression (bowl)
clavicle
collar bone
scalpula
shoulder blade
radius & ulna
make forearm
radius identified by rounded projection on bottom
ileum
half of pelvis
femur
only bone with a trucanter
tibia
identifiable by spongy ridge (larger)
fibula and tibia
long bones in lower leg
