MIDTERMS Flashcards
qualitative decrease in size of cells.
Atrophy
qualitative increase in size of cells.
Hypertrophy
qualitative increase in number of cells.
Hyperplasia
transformation of one cell to another.
Metaplasia
it is the reversion of cell, lacks in structure.
Anaplasia
abnormality in size, shape, orientation of
cell.
Dysplasia
formation of new cell with atypical cellular
structure with increase mitotic figure.
Neoplasia
Animal starch is
Glycogen
principal fluid medium, constituting 70% of cell
mass.
Water
most abundant substance 10% to 20% of cell
mass, building block is amino acids.
Proteins
makes up 2% of cells, building blocks is fatty
acids and glycerol.
Lipids
is the stored form of lipids in fat cells.
Triglyceride
provides most of the nutritional
requirements of cell
Carbohydrates
Blood sugar, simplest form of
carbohydrates for cell metabolism
Glucose
stored in skeletal muscles and
it is the storage form of carbohydrates.
Glycogen
is the carbohydrate component of cell
membrane
Glycocalyx
Type of cells that divide through Meiosis and is Haploid (n).
Germ cells/Gametes
Type of cells that divide through Mitosis and is Diploid (2n).
Somatic Cells
“Resting phase” of the cell and it is known to be the longest phase.
Interphase
Cell Division Phase: Condensation of nuclear material, nucleus
becomes darker
Prophase
Cell Division Phase: Chromosomes thicken and become visible while
the nuclear membrane and nucleus disappear
Prophase
Cell Division Phase:
Chromosomes line up of along equatorial plate.
Metaphase
Cell Division Phase:
Chromosomes attach to spindle fibers and move
toward opposite poles
Anaphase
Cell Division Phase:
Each chromatid from separated chromosomes
become the chromatids of daughter cells, and the
nucleus and nuclear membrane reappear.
Telophase
Organelles: Boat/sausage-shaped organelle which is long regarded as powerhouse of the cell
Mitochondrion
Organelles: Produces energy in the form of ATP through Kreb’s Cycle/Citric/Tricarboxylic acid cycle
Mitochondrion
Organelles: Contains hydrolytic phagocytic cells/cell capable of engulfing bacteria
Lysosome
Organelles: contains oxidative
enzymes for neutralize and destroys foreign agents
Peroxisome
Organelle: for protein synthesis for external or
outside the cell
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
Organelle: Lipid, Steroid and
Carbohydrate synthesis.
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
Organelle: Half moon/cresent-shaped
Golgi Apparatus
Organelle: Packaging center of secretory products of Rough ER and Smooth ER prior to release out of cells
Golgi Apparatus
Organelle: Protein synthesis for internal use
Ribosomes
Organelle: Helps in formation and guides spindle fibers during mitosis and meiosis
Centriole
Organelle: Storage of nutrients, proteins, pigments

Os penis
Splanchnic Skeleton: present in the snout of pigs, square in shape.
Os rostri
Splanchnic Skeleton: present in the heart of ox/cattle.
Os cordis
Splanchnic Skeleton: rare/abnormal in cats
Os clitoris
Splanchnic Skeleton: present in chicken
Os entoglossum
blood cells are produced in what bone
long bones and flat bones in adults
Inorganic Framework of bones constitutes what %
65-70%
