Cell Differentiation + Apoptosis Flashcards
process by which a cell assumes specialized structure and functions
differentiation
blank organisms do not undergo differentiation
single cell
these demonstrate the greatest number of examples of differentiation
embryos
cell differentiation also occurs in the adult which is called blank
maturation
example of maturation is an osteoblast turning into a blank
osteocyte
undifferentiated cells are aka blank or blank
stem cells, blast
four days old embryo that is a ball of cells
morula
a morula is not yet blank
differentiated
early embryo is a three layer blank
germ disk
destruction and death of a cell caused by genetic programming
apoptosis
apoptosis is a blank process conducted by the cell that requires blank
active, energy
does apoptosis injure surrounding cells?
no
cell death due to external circumstances and can damage surrounding cells
necrosis
necrosis does not use its own blank
energy
apoptosis occurs during this time
entire lifespan
example of apoptosis in human
webbing that goes away between fingers and toes
rudimentary tail of the embryo is an extension of blank
vertebral column
surplus of unneeded reserve blast cells undergo blank
apoptosis
thymus makes the most blank in the body
lymphocytes
callus of skin is the blank layer
cornified
healthy hair is due to secretions of blank
sebaceous gland
all cells have a set of enzymes called blank which are normally present in an inactive form
caspases
caspases initiate blank when activated
apoptosis
caspases are an example of amplification of action because one caspase being activated triggers blank
a cascade of other caspases
apoptosed cells are removed by blank
phagocytosis
blood cells are derived in the blank
bone marrow
stem cell of blood cells
hemopoietic stem cell
two stages in development of RBC after hemopoietic stage
BFU-E, CFU-E (Burst/colony forming unit - erythroid)
hemopoietic stem cell is recognized by a cell surface marker called
cd34
level of erythrocytic differentiation which is the youngest precursor ofRBC that can be seen by microscopy
pronormoblast
any nucleated cell that is identifiable by routine staining that is recognized as a precursor of the RBC
normoblast
young large round cell with a large round nucleus.
pronormoblast
pronormoblast nucleus has a very delicate blank pattern and stains lightly
chromatin
common organelle that resists staining
golgi
hemoglobin is basophilic or acidophilic
acidophilic
RBC where traces of RNA can be seen
polychromatic erythrocytes (immature RBC)
polychromatic erythrocytes are only released into circulation during blank
blood loss
RBC usually live for blank days
100
we replace blank percent of RBCs per day
1%
first test tube baby

rbc stages
pronormoblast, basophilic normoblast, polychromatic normoblast, orthochromatic normoblast, reticulocyte, erythrocyte
