Q

Steps to using a microscope

A
  1. Lowest objective lense in place (4x), the stage is completely lowered, light is on a low setting.
  2. Slide is placed on the stage and held in place by camps.
  3. Stage controls bring the specimen into view.
  4. Light and course focus are adjusted first followed by the fine focus to make the subject clearly visible.
  5. Step 4 is repeated with the additional objective lenses.
  6. Repeat step one after removing the slide from the stage.
  7. Turn off, cover & store microscope

42
Q

Factors that affect the rate of simple diffusion

A
  1. Temperature
  2. Concentration gradient
43
Q

What type of molecules can diffuse through the cell membrane by simple diffusion?

A

Hydrophobic molecules - cell membrane is made of phospholipids

44
Q

Epithelial Tissue

A

Can be identified by its apical surface next to the lumen.
It functions to form body linings.
These tissues can secrete, absorb, or protect

45
Q

Tissue Classes

A

Epithelial
Connective
Nervous
Muscle

46
Q

Nervous tissue

A

Identifiable by the presence of neurons and glia cells.
Responsible for sending, receiving, and responding to messages (stimuli) from the body.

47
Q

Muscle Tissue

A

Functions to move substances throughout the body. Is able to recieve and respond to stimuli. Contractible.

48
Q

Connective tissue

A

So diverse that it requires sub-categories:
* Dense - bone, cartilage, tendons
* Loose - areolar, adipose
* Fluid - blood
These tissues can secrete an ECM of salts and protein fibers, elastic and collegent fibers are present around the cells in the matrix.

49
Q

Simple Squamous

Characteristics + Location

A

Simple = one layer Squamous = flat
Thin enough for substances to simply diffuse and has a lot of lumen present
Location: Lungs, Capillaries, Veins

50
Q

Stratified Squamous

Characteristics + Location

A

Stratified = multiple layers Squamous = flat
Epithelial tissue with multiple layers without any gaps and the most superficial layer consistently sluffing off.
Location: Mouth, Esophagus, Vagina, Skin

51
Q

Simple Cuboidal

Characteristics + Location

A

Simple = one layer
Cuboidal = roughly square/ rectangular shaped
Cells squarish shape allows them to secrete or absorb. This epithelial tissue has gaps of lumen present.
Location: Kidneys, Ducts of glands, Ovaries

52
Q

Simple Columnar

Characteristics + Location

A

Simple = one layer
Columar = column/ tubular shape

Location: Small intestine, Uterus, Fallopian tube

53
Q

looks like a really marbled steak
Location: Heart

57
Q

A

Cells appear short and spindled (kinda like a cone incence).
Location: Lining - digestive tract, blood vessel walls, urinary walls

58
Q

Q

What’s the difference between eccrine sweat glands and apocrine sweat glands?

A

Eccrine:
* Found all over the body
* Secretory part is coiled in the dermis
* Mostly contains: water, salt + waste
Apocrine:
* only found in armpits + around genitals
* Lipids and carbs are present → body odors after bacterial degredation (probably pharamones)
* Secretory part is deeper

64
Q

  • Temp receptors
  • Pain receptors
65
Q

Membrane types

Only ones covered in class

A
  • Cutaneous - skin
  • Mucous - contains glands
  • Serous - secrete fluid
  • Epithelial - attaches epithelial to connective
66
Q

Integumentary glands

  • Sweat: Eccrine, apocrine
  • Mammary - midified sweat
  • Sebaceous - secrete sebum onto hair follicle
67
Q

Sebum

A

Substance that coats the skin, provides lubrication + makes skin waterproof.

68
Q

Dermis

  • 2 layers of connective tissues under the epidermis: Papillary, Reticular
  • Makes up most of the skin
  • Gives skin elasticity
  • Contains blood vessels + neurons
69
Q

Reticular Dermis

A

Deepest layer and composes most of the dermis with dense irregular connective tissue. The dense bundles of collagen fibers go in all directions that resist stretching in all directions with cleavage lines within the bundles.
