Diaphragm
Divides the thoracic and abdominal cavity
Visceral
The layer touching the organ
What type of microscope do we use in class?
Compound microscope
The image we see in the microscope is…
Upside down and backwards
Two top lenses of the microscope and their magnification
Ocular lenses, 10x magnification
The bottom three lenses
Scanning 4x, low power 10x, and high power 40-45x
Total magnification
Multiple ocular lense by the objective lense
As we increase magnification, the field of view gets
Smaller
Parfocal
As you go from lower to higher magnification, the microscope stays in focus
Nucleus
Contains DNA
Nucleolus
inside the nucleus and produces ribosomes
Ribosomes
Synthesises proteins
Rough ER
Synthesises proteins, surrounded by ribosomes
Smooth ER
Synthesises lipids
Lipids
A source of energy, provides protection by surrounding organs
Three sources of energy
Carbs, lipids, protein
Golgi apparatus
Makes carbs and packages carbs, lipids, and proteins into little vesicles and ships them out to different parts of the body as needed
Lysosome
Breaks down cellular waste
Mitochondria
Provides energy in the form of ATP
Centrioles
Cell division
Four types of tissue
Epithelial, connective, muscle and nervous tissue
Simple squamous
Lines blood vessels
Stratified squamous
Lines the esophagus and some reproductive organs like the vagina
Simple cuboidal
Lines kidney tubules and liver cells
Stratified cuboidal
Lines the sweat glands
Simple columnar
Found in small and large intestines. Has specialisations such as, brush borders called cilia which help move substances across the cell
Columnar cells have…
Goblet cells which produce mucous that help cilia move substances across the cell
Stratified columnar cells
Rare and can be found in the pancreas and salivary glands
Transitional epithelium
only found in the lining of the bladder and can expand up to 3-4x it’s size
Pseudostratified columnar epithelium
Only 1 layer, located in the trachea, also has goblet cells and cilia
