lecture 2 Flashcards
major body cavities
cranial
thoracic
abdominopelvic
fluid filled compartments
circulatory system
eyes
cerebrospinal fluid
pleural and pericardial sacs
three fluid compartments
plasma
interstitial fluid
intracellular fluid
four cell membrane functions
physical isolation
regulation of exchange with the environment
communication btw cell and environment
structural support
fluid mosiac model
see diagram
organization of typical animal cell
see diagram
cytosol
fluid portion of cytoplasm
inclusions
lipid droplets
glycogen granules
ribosomes
protein fibers
cytoskeleton
centrioles
cilia
flagella
organelles
mitochondria
endoplasmic reticulum
Golgi
lysosomes
peroxisomes
microfilaments
actin fibers
intermediate filaments
keratin
neurofilaments
microtubules
tubulin
actin
associates with myosin for muscle contraction
keratin
hair and nails, protective barrier of skin
tubulin
movement of cilia, flagella , and chromosomes, intracellular transport of organelles, cytoskeleton
five major functions of cytoskeleton
cell shape
internal organization
intracellular transport
assembly of cells into tissues
movement
why must protein assembly happen in seperate compartments?
must protect DNA so assembly of proteins has to happen outside of nucleus
extracellular matrix structures
synthesized and secreted by cells, composed of proteoglycans, insoluble protein fibers
7 main categories of connective tissue
loose connective tissue
dense irregular connective tissue
dense regular connective tissue
adipose
blood
cartilage
bone
pluripotent
cells can become anything except go back from placental
totipotent
cells can become ANYTHING
multipotent
cells can pursue multiple routes but not all
hollow organs
heart, lungs, blood vessels, intestines
lumen
interior of any hollow organ
extracellular fluid
plasma, interstitial fluid
intracellular fluid
just intracellular fluid
lipids
phospholipids, sphingolipids, cholesterol
