CELLS TYPES IN THE HUMAN BODY Flashcards
THESE ARE CELLS FOUND IN THE LARGEST ORGAN OF THE BODY
EPITHELIAL CELLS
THESE PROTECT THE BODY FROM THE EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENT AND ALSO COVER THE INTERNAL ORGANS
EPITHELIAL CELLS
THESE ARE CELLS PRIMARILY INTENDED FOR MOVEMENT
MUSCLE CELLS
THESE ARE CLASSIFIED ACCORDING TO THEIR STRUCTURE , ATTACHMENTS AND ABILITY TO RESPOND
MUSCLE CELLS
ALSO CALLED SKELETAL MUSCLE
STRIATED MUSCLE CELLS
THESE ARE THE MUSCLE CELLS WHICH IS PRIMARILY USED FOR LOCOMOTORY
STRIATED MUSCLE CELLS
THEY ARE CONNECTED TO LONG BONES THAT MOVE THROUGH MUSCLE CONTRACTION
STRIATED MUSCLE CELLS
MAKES UP THE MUSCLE OF THE INTERNAL ORGANS
SMOOTH MUSCLE CELLS
CONSIDERED TO BE THE MOST POWERFUL OF ALL CELLS
CARDIAC MUSCLE CELLS
THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE IN PUMPING BLOOD TO DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE BODY
CARDIAC MUSCLE CELLS
ALSO CALLED OSTEOCYTES
BONE CELLS
THE MOST RESILIENT BODY CELLS AS THEY ARE BOUND TOGETHER BY CALCIUM AND PHOSPATE
BONE CELLS
THEY GIVE STRENGTH , SUPPORT AND FRAMEWORK TO THE BODY BY ENCLOSING ORGANS
BONE CELLS
THESE CELLS FORM THE BONES
BONE CELLS
ALSO KNOWN AS CHONDROCYTES
CARTILAGE CELLS
FUNCTION SIMILARLY TO BONE CELLS BUT THEY ARE COMPOSED OF CHONDROITIN SULFATE THAT MAKES THEM SOFTER AND MORE FLEXIBLE COMPARED WITH THOSE BONE CELLS
CARTILAGE CELLS
SURROUNDED BY SPACES CALLED LACUNA WHICH MAKES THEM BENDABLE
CARTILAGE CELLS
PRESENT IN EARS AND COVER THE END OF THE HUMAN BODY’S LONG BONES TO LESSEN THE FRICTION WHEN BONE SRUB ON EACH OTHER JOINTS
CARTILAGE CELLS
ALSO KNOWN AS NEURONS
NERVE CELLS
WORK EVERY SECOND OF A HUMAN’S ;IFE
NERVE CELLS
PRESENT ALL OVER THE BODY
NERVE CELLS
ENABLE THE PERSON TO THINK , FEEL AND RESPOND. HIS/HER ENVIRONMENT
NERVE CELLS
APPEAR AS VERY LONG AND CONSIST OF MANY BRANCHES
NERVE CELLS
COMPOSED OF DENDRITES AND AXONS
NERVE CELLS
MAKES UP THE BRAIN AND SPINAL CORD
NERVE CELLS
FOUND IN GLANDS WHICH FUNCTIONS AS ORGANS OF SECRETION
SECRETORY CELLS
THE SECRETION CAN BE IN THE FORM OF SWEAT ,OIL AND THE LIKE
SECRETORY CELLS
KNOWN AS FAT CELLS
ADIPOSE CELLS
FUNCTION FOR STARING FATS
ADIPOSE CELLS
SEEN IN THE ABDOMEN AND BUTTOCKS
ADIPOSE CELLS
HELP REDUCE FRICTION AND CUSHION THE BODY
ADIPOSE CELLS
CLASSIFIED INTO RBC,WBC AND PLATELETS
BLOOD CELLS
FUNCTION FOR TRANSPORTING OXYGEN THROUGHOUT THE BODY , FIGHT AGAINST FOREIGN BODIES OR INFECTION AND FOR BLOOD CLOTTING
BLOOD. CELLS
KNOWN AS GAMETES
REPRODUCTIVE CELLS
THE PROCESS OF PRODUCING SEX CELLS
GAMETOGENESIS
PROCESS OF PRODUCING EGG CELLS
OOGENESIS
PROCESS OF PRODUCING SPERM CELLS
SPERMATOGENESIS
