6 Proteins & Their Functions**
- Channels—–> h2o/electrolytes in/out the cell
- Transport Proteins—> active pump through cell membrane
- Receptors—> hormone attachement site
- Cytoskeleton Anchors—> cell shape
- ID Marker—> self
- Enzymes—> speed chemical reaction
Mitochondrial Energy Production Equation**
O2+glucose(mitochondria/enzyme) ATP+Heat+CO2+H2O
Cell Organelles & Functions
- Cell Membrane—>protect the cell
- Cell Nucleus—> brain of cell, genetic blueprint
- Mitochondria—> powerhouse of cell
- Ribosomes—> protein factor
- Golgi Apparatus–> production of cell membrane to surround exported proteins
- lysosomes—> “suicide bag”
Exocrine Gland Examples and Fuction**
- secrete into the hollow organs
- *do not produce hormones**
- have ducts
Examples:
- GI tract
- Kidney
- Liver
- Salivary Glands
- Pancreas
- Prostate Glands
- Mammary Glands
Endocrine Gland Examples and Function**
- secrete into the bloodstream
- *produce hormones**
- do not have ducts
Examples:
- Pituitary Gland
- Hypothalamus
- Thyroid
- Parathyroid
- Pancreas
- Ovary
- Testicles
- Adrenal Gland
Erythrocyte & its Function**
Size- 7 microns
Number- 7 million
Function-transport O2
Source- red bone marrow
Platelet & its Function
Size- 2-2.5 microns
Number- 200,000-300,000 mm3
Function- blood clotting
Leukocyte & its Function**
Function- immunity
Source- red bone marrow
Artery & its Function
blood vessels
Function- pulls blood away from heart
Capillary & its Funtion
microscopic blood vessel in body
Function- O2–> every cell in body
Plasma
H2O fraction of the blood that can still clot
Serium
H2O fraction that has clotted
Coagulation
blood clotting
Anti Coagulation
chemical prevents blood clotting
