Anatomy Ch 3 test review Flashcards
-diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane
-water moves down its concentration gradient
Osmosis
-transport of too large of molecules that can;t go through membrane pores
-protein channels are used
facilitated diffusion
types of active transport
exocytosis, endocytosis, protein pumps
substances are moved across the membrane “in bulk” without actually crossing the plasma membrane
vesicular transport
types of endocytosis
- phagocytosis- “cell eating”
-pinocytosis- “cell drinking”
-receptor- medicated endocytosis
-move materials across the cell surface, hairlike structure
-located in the respiratory system to move mucus
Cillia
propels the cell
-only one on the human body in sperm
Flagella
tiny, finger line extensions of the plasma membrane
-increases surface area for absorption
Microvilli
types of connective tissue (most rigid to softest)
- bone
-cartilage
-dense connective tissue
-loose connective tissue
-blood
-control center, contains DNA
Nucleus
three regions of Nucleus
nuclear envelope, nucleolus, chromatin
layer of two membranes that surrounds the nucleus of a cell
nuclear envelope
found inside the nucleus and produces ribosomes
Nucleolus
loosely wound
-composed of DNA wound around histones
-condense to form chromosomes
Chromatin
tightly wound
histones
a jellylike fluid outside the nucleus and inside the plasma membrane
cytoplasm
3 major parts of cytoplasm
cytosol, incisions, organelles
fluid portion of cytoplasm, suspension other elements
cytosol
chemical substances such as stored nutrients or cell products that float in the cytosol
inclusions
a tiny cell structure that carriers out a specific function within the cell
organelles
makes proteins
ribosomes
fluid-filled tunnels that carry substances within the cell
Rough ER- makes proteins, lots of ribosomes
smooth ER- has no ribosomes
Endoplasmic reticulummo
modifies and packages proteins
Golgi apparatus
containing digestive enzymes
lysosomes
produce hydrogen peroxide; detoxify harmful substances
peroxisomes
network of protein filaments within the cells that helps the cell maintain its shape and is involved in many forms of cell movement
cytoskeleton
generate microtubules
centrioles
cells that connect body parts
fibroblasts and erythrocyte
cells that cover and line body organs
epithelial cells
cells that move organs and body parts
skeletal muscle and smooth muscle cells
