HBS skeletal Quiz #2 Flashcards
Describe the relationship between cells, tissues, organs, and systems in the human body.
Cells makes up tissues, tisssues make up organs, and organs make up body system in the human body.
Nervous Tissue
Ex: nerves, spinal cord, brain
- made up of neruons,
-work to recieve and interept, respond signals.
Epithelial Tissue
Ex: outer surface of all organs and blood vessels, in mouth, on surface of human
-work to absorb, secrete, protect, and sense.
Muscle Tissue
Ex: muscles in the body (can be straited, smooth, or cardiac).
-Striated muscle tissue are skeletal muscle tissue and they are attached to bones.
- Smooth muscle tissue are the walls in the internal organ.
-Cardiac muscle tissue are the walls of heart and they have the ability to contract.
Connective Tissue
Ex: blood, fats, cartilege
- All over the body
- Works to connect and support other tissue types in the body
- holds the organ in place
- attach muscle to bone
- link bones with jointand enable other tissues (like lungs_ to stretch).
What tissue type is bone and cartilage?
Connective
What do you notice is the main difference between the structure of the connective tissues and the structure of the epithelium? Note the organization of cells in these two tissue types. How do their structures relate to function?
The epithelial tissue’s layer seems to be more tightly packed together while the connective tissue’s layer seems to be more loose.
The epithelial tissue is tightly packed together because this way we don’t get hurt easily.
One common epithelial tissue is our skin and with the cells tightly packed together, it prevents some injuries or unwanted antigens from going directly into our body.
The connective tissue is packed loosely because its primary function is to store energy and with the wide space, it allows it to store more energy.
Flat bones
Ex: Left parietal bone; sternum
-made up of a layer of sponge bone, between two thin layer of compact bones.
-Have marrow but no marrow cavity
Long bones
Ex: Right humerus
- Made up of a shaft and two ends.
-Longer than width
-Thick outside layer with a marrow-filled cavity.
-The end of the bone contain spongy bone
Short bones
Ex: Right carpals
- Roughly cube shape, vertical and horizontal dimensions, approx. equal.
- Mostly spongy bones; the outside surface is a thin layer of compact bone.
Irregular bones
Ex: Thoracic vertebra
- Compact bones surround thin layers of sponge bone.
- Do not fit any of the previous bone description.
What type of bone is patella?
Sesamoid bone
External features of long bone
Epiphysis-Diaphysis-Epiphysis
Internal features of long bone
Hyaline cartilage-Epiphyseal line- Red bone marrow- Marrow cavity-Yellow bone marrow- Yellow bone marrow- Periosteum- Compact bone- Spongy bone- site of endosteum- Nutrient foramen
Sponge Bone
-House bone marrow
-allow for RBCs formation or erythropoiesis
- allow bones to be less dense and more light
-flexibility
Blood Vessel
-transport nutrients
-transport wastes away through bloodflow
-most important: carries oxygen to the body
Compact Bone
- provide protection and strength to bones
- one of the two types of bone tissue (another type is called spongy bone).
Periosteum
- supplies them the blood they need and help them to grow and heal.
Medullary Cavity
-space within the hollow part of the bone
-houses bone marrow
Yellow Bone Marrow
-produces cartilege, fat, and bone
-stores fat in cells called adipocytes
-helps maintain the right enviornment and provides the substance the bones need to function.
