Q

Glandular Epithelial Tissue

Primary Job + 2 Types

A

Primary job is Secretion
Exocrine Gland - secrete either directly or through ducts ( ex. sweat, salivary gland)
Endocrine Gland - ductless and secrete directly into blood stream (ex. hormones)

Q

Mucous Membranes

A

epithelial tissue that line the passages and cavities that have exposure to the external environment and internal organs
* specialized epithelial cells and produce “MUCUS”, a clear, sticky fluid

A

7.35-7.45

29
Q

Buffers

A

chemicals found in the body that help prevent large changes in the blood pH

30
Q

DNA

A

Deoxyribonucleic Acid

31
Q

Osmosis

A

the movement of molecules of a solvent (such as water) through a semi-permeable memberane, which will lower the concentration of a solute on one side of the membrane until the concentration on both sides is even

32
Q

Extracellular Fluid

A

Outside the cell

33
Q

Intracellular Fluid

A

Inside the cell

34
Q

Isotonic

A

the net flow of water across the semi-permerable membrane is equal

35
Q

Hypertonic

A

Shrivel up

More concentrated than the intracellular fluid causing the water to flow out of the cell

36
Q

Hypotonic

A

Cell Bursts

Less concentrated than the intracellular fluid causing the water to rush into the cell

37
Q

Homeostasis

A

Resistance to change

38
Q
