List the regions of the superior limb from proximal to distal
Pectoral girdle brachium antebrachium manus carpus metacarpus digits
List the regions of the inferior limb from distal to proximal
Pelvic girdle clunes coxae thigh crus pes tarsus metatarsus digits
beginning with the chemical level list the steps in the hierarchical organization of living matter
Chemical level cells tissues organs organ systems organism
What are the microscopic building blocks that combine to form molecules
Atoms
What are the three types of organic molecules
Carbs
lipids and
proteins
The three subdivisions of the cell
Plasma membrane
nucleus
cytoplasm
What are the four functions of the cell membrane
Mechanical barrier
selective gate keeper
chemical receptor
identify self from nonself
What is the brain
Nucleus
Molecular movements do not require energy and can be divided into two subtypes
Passive- where molecules move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration
Osmosis- where water molecules move from areas of high concentration of water molecules to areas of low concentration water molecules
Active movements require energy and can be divided into two subtypes
carrier mediated- require special carrier proteins in the membrane to transport molecules into or out of the cell
Energy production in the cytosol is called
glycosis, it produces 2 atp
Energy production in the mitochondria is called
krebs cycle and produces 36 atp
Basic muscle tissue
Connective- vascular- few cells lots of extra cellular matrix
muscle
epithelial - a vascular
Nervous
Epithelial tissues are classified based on
Shape and number of layers
List the four basic connective tissues
General
cartilage
bone
blood
What are the two basic building blocks of connective tissues
few Cells and extracellular matrix
what two fibers dominate the extracellular matrix
collagen - great tensile strength
Elastic - Branched, stretch and recoil
Loose collagenous connective tissue
allows for movement
Dense irregular connective tissue
tensile strength
strong in all directions
dense regular connective tisse
strong in one direction
adipose tissue
insulate and padding
Why is cartilage and exception among the types of connective tissues
its the only one that is avascular
Hyaline cartilage
smooth and glassy
