Lecture #2 Flashcards
Noble Gases?
Stability (Octet Rule=Each atom want 8 electrons in outer shell)
Covalent Bond?
Sharing electrons
Ionic Bond?
Positive+ & Negative- attraction
Hydrogen Bonding?
Hydrogen becomes positive when electrons are unequally shared in a covalent bond and is attracted to a negatively charged atom or molecule.
Polar?
Molecule has a negative and positive end (electrons not shared equally).
Non-Polar?
Electrons are shared equally resulting in neither a negative or positive charge.
Solvent?
A substance that dissolves other substances (solutes).
Acid?
Proton donor-Substance that releases H+ when dissolved in water.
Base?
Proton Acceptor-Substance that reduces H+ concentration when dissolved in water.
Buffer?
Can either accept or donate an H+ ion to maintain pH levels.
Structure of Carbohydrates?
CH20 (water molecule + carbon)
Glycolysis?
Splitting of sugars
What are the four basic types of tissue? (Histology)
Epithelial
Connective
Muscle
Nervous
Tissue?
A group of cells organized together to carry out specific functions.
Six levels of tissue?
Atom Molecule Organelle Cell Tissue Organ
Functions of epithelial tissue?
Cover Line Protect Absorb Secrete Filter/diffuse
How is epithelial tissue classified?
Squamous-flattened/scale like
Cuboidal-cubed shaped
Columnar-rectangular
How is epithelial tissue arranged?
Simple-one layer
Stratified-multiple layers
Pseudostratified-appears to have multiple layers but all cells contact basement membrane (Pseudo=False)
What does connective tissue do?
Binds/connects, protects, supports, stores energy, body defense/immunity.
What are common characteristics of connective tissue?
Abundance of matrix between cells, fibers, vascularity, variety of cell types.
Loose connective/areolar tissue functions?
Surrounds organs, muscles, blood vessels, lines body cavities, cushions, and supports.
What is adipose tissue composed of?
Composed of Fat cells called adipocytes.
Where is adipose tissue located?
Deep to the skin and throughout the body.
What is the function of adipose tissue?
Stores energy, cushions, and pads.
