Midterm 1 review Flashcards
organelle that is the principle site for energy production
Mitochondria
small granules composed of RNA and proteins, synthesizes proteins
Ribosomes
Ribosomes are attached to the outside and it functions to make proteins by taking up polypeptides and amino acids from cytosol and assembling them into proteins.
Rough ER
does not contain ribosomes and functions to synthesize lipid substances, steroid hormones, and detoxifies certain organic chemicals
Smooth ER
these organelles package materials made in the cell into vesicles and distributes them to other parts of the cell.
Golgi apparatus
Vesicular organelles that are formed by the golgi apparatus and then are dispersed throughout the cytoplasm. They contain digestive enzymes and function as an intracellular digestive system.
Lysosomes
the largest structure in the cell. It is the control center of the cell, controlling its chemical reactions and reproduction.
Cell’s Nucleus
What are the four basic tissues in the body?
1) Epithelium
2) Connective tissue
3) Nervous tissue
4) muscle
Axial skeleton consists of?
vertebral column, ribs, and sternum
Appendicular skeleton consists of?
bones of the limb and bones connecting the limbs to the axial skeleton
Visceral skeleton consists of?
bones that develop in the viscera or soft structures such as the os penis in carnivores and the os cordis in the ox and sheep
what are the different parts of the long bone?
Diaphysis
Epiphysis
Metaphysis
what is the gross term for bone that looks solid?
Compact bone
term for bone that has visible spaces in it. the empty spaces between trabeculae are filled with bone marrow?
Cancellous/spongy bone
immature bone that has been laid down but not organized by secondary remodeling.
woven bone
mature bone that has been remodeled.
Haversian bone
when stimulated, they develop into the more active, secretory cell = osteoblast (stemcells)
osteoprogenitor cells
differentiated bone-forming cell responsible for the production of bone matrix. cell becoming bone.
osteoblast
Mature bone cells, derived from osteoblasts.
Osteocytes
bone resorbing cells. large, motile, often multinucleated cells that are derived from stem cells in blood producing tissue of bone marrow and spleen.
Osteoclasts
chondrocytes begin to divide and organize into columns forming the zone of proliferation.
zone of reserve cartilage (youngest)
these cells are dividing and as they produce cartilaginous matrix, they push the epiphysis away from the diaphysis, thereby elongating the bone.
Zone of proliferation
each division of chondrocytes brings about larger cells.
Zone of hypertrophy
(oldest) hypertrophied cells begin to calcify the cartilage matrix.
Zone of calcified matrix
types of joint movements
rotation flexion extension adduction abduction circumduction pronation supination
what are the function of muscles?
movement posture maintenance heat generation protection of some internal organs squeezes fluids and other substances respiration heart beat
muscle that is striated, musculature of the heart, branched fibers.
Cardiac muscle
muscle striated, generally attached to bone, usually under voluntary control, non branched fibers
Skeletal muscle
muscle not striated found in the walls of viscera (gut, vessels, glands, etc)
smooth muscle
what are the skeletal muscle fibers?
red
white
intermediate
what does the sacromere contain?
Z line I band A band M line H band motor unit motor end plate
