QUIZ 3.1 Flashcards
These increase the surface area for the absorption of nutrients and other essential substances from the gut cavity into the underlying tissues and blood vessels
Microvilli
They are found in the small intestines, kidneys, egg cells, and white blood cells.
Microvilli
A cilium’s structural core is made of _____ on the outside ring with 2 microtubules on the central portion.
nine pairs of microtubules
In the respiratory tract ___ prevent infection or mucus (from goblet cells),
bacteria, and dirt from entering the lungs. Nose
Cillia
____ in a frog’s inner ear allow it to detect sounds from its environment. Through these, frogs have a mechanism to detect and escape from potential threats.
Stereocillia
are tail-like structures that provide motility to cells.
Flagella
are both found at the basement membrane of epithelial cells.
Basal infoldings and hemidesmosomes
help the epithelial tissue provide protection and structural support to the underlying cells.
Hemidesmosomes
are responsible for increasing surface area and for ion and fluid transport.
Basal infoldings
are found in epithelial cells and are mainly responsible for connecting adjacent cells. Combination
Cell junctions
prevent leakage of substances.
Tight junctions
connect adjacent cells. More bigger
Adherens Junctions
connect adjacent cells. Lower part
Desmosomes
serve as channels of ions, water and other essential substances.
Gap junctions
Are biconcave to aid in the diffusion of gases from the air sacs of the lungs and into the oxygen-deprived tissues of the rest of the body. Transport of Oxygen
Red blood cells
The lack of _____ in red blood cells gives more space for hemoglobin
Nucleus
Red blood cells also lack ____. They generate their energy through anaerobic respiration.
mitochondria
3 types of Bloodcells
- Red blood cells
- White blood cells
- Platelets
White blood cellscan either be ____ or ____
granulocytes or agranulocytes
5 types of white blood cells
Monocyte
Lymphocytes
Eosinophil
Basophil
Neutrophil
Are the largest cells in the human body and are necessary for sexual reproduction. Only in female
Egg cells
travel from the testes to the female’s fallopian tube to facilitate an event called fertilization. Only in male
Sperm cells
are responsible for increasing the surface area for absorption.
Microvilli
are responsible for movement and sensation, respectively.
Cilia and stereocilia
are responsible for locomotion or motility
Flagella
are responsible for fluid transport and attachment, respectively.
Basal infoldings and hemidesmosomes
serve as connections between adjacent cells.
Cell junctions
are responsible for transporting oxygen and protecting the body from pathogens, respectively
Red and white blood cells
aid in the reproduction process.
Sperm and egg cells
maliit ang ulo
Microcephaly
Ano yung Bipolar, Major depreesive, and schizophrenia
Psychiatric Diseases
