Q

What two things does a basal membrane consists of?

A

Basal surface and basal lamina.

25
What is the job of fibronectin?
A class of glycoprotein that attaches cells to the ECM. (Knitting)
26
What is a collagen?
A fibrous glycoprotein, which is a vital part of ECM.
27
What is elastin?
A rubbery protien that adds elasticity to the ECM.
28
What are fibroblasts?
Secrete most collagen and other proteins in connective tissue. (Blasts fibers)
29
What are the 6 connective tissue types?
Loose, fibrous, cartilage, bone, adipose, and blood.
30
This type of tissue consists of sparsely distributed fibroblasts surrounded by collagen and other glycoprotiens.
Loose connective tissue.
31
This type of connective tissue is found under the skin and around blood vessels.
Loose connective tissue.
32
This type of connective tissue contains sparsely distributed fibroblasts but dense and parallel bundles of collagen and elastin?
Fibrous connective tissue. (More collages = more fibre)
33
Examples of this type of connective tissue are tendons and ligaments.
Fibrous CT
34
This type of CT tissue consists of sparsely distributed chondrocytes in a network of collagen and chondroitin sulfate.
Cartilage
35
What is a unique key element present only in cartilage?
Chondroitin sulfate.
36
What is the densest CT?
Bone
37
What are osteocytes?
Mature bone cells stuck in collagen and calcium-phosphate.
38
What is the difference between osteoblast and osteoclast?
Osteoblast produce/blast collagen | Osteoclast cut/remove minerals to the bloodstream.
39
What is the basic structure of the bone with a central canal called?
Osteon.
40
What type of CT is also known as energy reserve cells?
Adipose Tissue.
41
What are the three parts of the Blood CT?
Erythrocytes, plasma (staw-colored fluid), and leukocytes.
42
This type of CT is known as a transport vehicle.
Blood
43
What are the 3 types of muscle tissues?
Skeletal, cardiac, and smooth.
44
This type of muscle tissue forms layers around body cavities.
Smooth muscle.
45
This type of tissue consists of long, striated muscle fibres and is used for movement.
Skeletal muscle.
46
What type of arrangement helps the cardiac muscle contract from all directions?
Intercalated disk branching.
47
These are spindle shaped contractile cells with tapered ends.
Smooth muscle tissue.
48
What are the 3 functions of glial cells?
Provide insulation, scavenge debris, and provide electrical insulation (myelin sheaths).
49
Homeostasis is accomplished specifically by what type of mechanism?
Negative feedback loop.
50
Why is homeostatis a dynamic process?
Because internal changes are made constantly.
51
What is a regulator?
Animal that maintains internal environment.
52
What is a conformer?
Animal that matches external environment.
53
What kind of feedback loop compensates for environmental changes?
Negative
54
What are the 3 parts of a Negative feedback loop?
Sensor, integrator, and effector (last step).
55
What kind of pathway bring information to the integrator?
Afferent (sensory).
56
What kind of pathway takes information towards the effector?
Efferent (effector - motor)
57
What structure in brain detects temperature change in the environment?
Hypothalamus.
58
What kind of feedback loop is less common?
Positive.
