Exam 4: Review questions at end of chapters Flashcards
Name the Organelles of the cells
Mitochondria Endoplasmic Reticulum Golgi Apparatus Lysosome microtubles/microfilament
Mitochondria
Responsible for energy production and for the rate at which cell uses energy (metabolism of cell)
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Series of interconnecting tubules in the cell that are responsible for the manufacture of various products to be used inside or outside of the cell
Golgi Apparatus
series of flattened saccules that produce a thin membrane to surround the material produced by the ER so it can be moved around the cell without mixing with the cytoplasm
“packages”
Lysosome
circular structure that acts as a scavenger for the cell
What is pinocytosis?
“Drinking In”
What is the difference between cell organelles and cell inclusions?
Organelles are small functioning parts that allow the cell to remain alive and carry out its particular function
Inclusions are storage products in a cell not actually used to maintain the cell under normal circumstances
What is the function of the cell membrane?
keep the cellular fluid in and unnecessary foreign materials out
Define Epithelium
group of cells that makes up the skin and lines the inside of the tubes and cavities of the body.
Most common type of epithelium
Stratified Squamous
What are desmosomes?
Ultrastructural part of a cell next to the cell wall that helps hold cells together
Where do glands come from?
Epithelium
How are glands classified?
Distributive mechanism
secretory mechanism
arrangement of components
Name embryonic germ layers. Which layer does epithelium come from?
Ectoderm, Entoderm, mesoderm
any of the three
components of irregular connective tissue
nerve and blood vessels
How do cartilage and bone differ?
Cartilage is noncalcified supporting component of the body
Bone is hard connective tissue that forms the framework of the body. the hardness is attributable to hydroxyapatite crystal
What is a haversian system?
system of blood vessels located within the bones to provide them with nourishment
what are components of endochondral bone development ?
cartilage is formed first, covered by perichondrium
As bone replaces cartilage it does in 2 sections. Epiphyses is the 2 end sections and diaphysis is center section
