PRELIMS01: LABORATORY Flashcards
Possesses highly organized structure that enables it to carry out its vital functions
CELL
2 types of cell
Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cell
Has no nucleus
Prokaryotic Cell
Has nucleus
Eukaryotic Cell
Functions inside a cell
Organelles
Towards the back
Dorsal
Powerhouse of the cell
Mitochondria
Two types of ER
Rough and Smooth ER
Study of tissues
HISTOLOGY
All structures in one part of the body
REGIONAL
Only exist in plant cell
Chloroplast
Key in the processing and packaging of protein and lipids
Golgi Apparatus
Anatomy of the body studied by systems
SYSTEMATIC
Towards the front or belly
Ventral
Father of Microbiology
Antoine Van Leuuwenhoek
Also known as “revolving turret”
Nose piece
Known as the body and carries optical parts in the upper part of the microscope
Head
Also known as the “ocular”
Eyepiece
Specially modified compound microscope and uses mercury arch lamp as source of UV light
FLUORESCENE MICROSCOPE
Hooke devised the compound microscope and illumination system (1665) and the best microscope of his time
COMPOUND MICROSCOPE
Knobs that move the condenser up and down thus controlling the focus of light on the specimen
Condenser focus knobs
Controls how far the stages should go preventing the object lens from getting too close to the specimen slide and prevents specimen slide from coming to far up and hitting the objective lens
Rack stop
Study of cells
CYTOLOGY
Developmental changes of the body before birth
Embryology
Closer to the feet or lower than another structure in the body
Inferior
Study of structural changes caused by disease
PATHOLOGICAL ANATOMY
Study of internal structures visualized by x-ray
RADIOGRAPHICAL ANATOMY
Study of anatomical structures at a sub-cellular level
MOLECULAR BIOLOGY
Gel-like matric containing water, salt, proteins, and other molecules and occupies intracellular space between the cell membrane and the nucleus
CYTOPLASM
Works together to maintain cellular homeostasis and perform essential life activies
Structure and Basic Functions
Surrounds the cell in a selective barrier between interior and exterior
Cell membrane
Rigid cell wall, may have flagella
Animal cell
Composed of protein filaments and regulates cell shape
Cytoskeleton
Give the three protein filaments
Microtubules, Microfilaments, Intermediate filaments
Study of internal structures as they relate to the overlying skin
SURFACE
