strattified squamous epithelial
thick membrane made of many layers, basement layers are cuboidal or collumnar (basale), surface cells are flat, When keartinized they have a layer of flat cells, protection from abrasion, non keratinized line the esophogus, mouth (remember chips).
Simple cuboidal epithelium
cube shaped, secretion and absorption, located in the Kidney tubules, ducts and secretory portions of glands
columns with nucleus towards "basement" or basale, Job is absorption, lines the intestinal track. Location in the guts or intestins.
stratified columnar epithelial
many of layers elongated cells with nucleus at the base. Job is protection and secretion. Small amounts in the male uretha (rare)
transitional epithelium
resembles cuboidal and columnar but is neither, stretches and twists enough to be used in the bladder with out tearing
psudeostratified columnar epthielium
has cillia to move stuff out of the trachea, not stratified, trachea and secretion
Areolar
gel matrix with 3 types fibers (fibroblast, macrophages, mast cells) Job: wraps and cushions. Location: widely distributed under the skin.
Adipose
Desc: Sparse matrix, mostly made up of fat cells, nucleus pushed to outer edge of cell by fat droplet. Job: reserve fuel, insulation against heat loss, cushions for organs. Location: under skin, around kidneys & eyeballs, abdomen, breasts
Reticular
Desc: Network of fibers (reticular) and reticular cells within the network. Job: fibers form a soft internal skeleton to support white blood cells, mast cells. Location: lymphoid organs
Dense Regular
Desc: Mostly parallel collagen fibers made of fibroblast cells. Job: attaches muscles to bone or to other muscles and withstands great stress. Location: tendons and ligaments.
Dense Irrigular
Desc: Mostly irregularly arranged collagen fibers, Fibroblast cells. Job: Able to stand tension exerted from many different directions. Location: dermis of skin, digestive tract, joints
Hyaline
Desc: Firm matrix (collagen fibers make an impenatrable matrix), cells live in a lacuna. (CATEYE). Job: supports and reinforces, cushions, resists compressive stress. Location: cartilage in ribs, nose, laraynx.
Elastic
Desc: close To hyaline but with more fibers. Job: maintains the shape of structure while allowing great flexibility. Location: ear
Fibrocartilage
Desc: Cat eye, less firm than hyaline with thick collagen fiber. Job: Tensile strength with ability to absorb shock. Location: discs of knee joints and intevertebral discs.
Bone
Desc: hard calcified matrix with collagen fibers. Job: support and protection, makes blood. Locations: bones
blood
Desc: red and white blood cells in plasma matrix. Job: transport respiritory gases, nutrients, waste, Location blood vessels
Nuerons
Desc: Nurons cells with branching cells processes. Job: transmit electrical signals from receptors to effectors, which control their activity. Location: brain spinal cord.
Skins 3 Layers
Epidermis (on top), Dermis (middle), Hypodermis (deepest)
Thin/actin filaments are the ones moving, Thick are the ones pulling the thin/actin.
9 Steps to muscle contraction
1. AP 2. calcium released from sr 3. Calcium binds to troponin. 4. troponin rotates the tropomyosin exposes binding site on actin. 5. myosin grabs actin. myosin pulls actin. Atp resets myosin, calcium. Tropomysin covers binding sites
aerobic respiration characteristics
Glucose + Air (oxygen), lots of atp created, lasts for hours
anaerobic respiration characteristics
glucose makes 2 atp lasts for 15 seconds, byproduct is lactic acid
White Fiber (Muscle Cell) Characteristics
Large in diameter, more powerful and pull, low oxygen, anaerobic respiration, low endurance also called fast twitch
Red Fiber (Muscle Cell) Characteristics
Smaller in diameter, less power, lots of blood, air mitochondria, areobic with high endurance
The motor unit
When the nerve is talking to the muscle
Recruitment (Muscle)
When the nerve "taps" more muscles fibers to get more power...the brain is in charge of recruitment.
Summation (muscle)
When the nerve continues to fire...tells the muscle to keep going. "Keep" holding the pen
the output in a neuron, the bigger the wire the faster the message gets sent
Myelin sheath
creates more insolation and that means that there is less leaking.
nerve sizes and locations
big fat nerves in the eyeballs, small and thin in the stomach
nerve process
1. Depolarization: sodium goes in through "sodium channel" by diffusion. 2. Repolarization: potassium goes out of axon by way of diffusion. 3. sodium potassium pumps sodium out and potassium in at 3:2 rate.
nerve firing trigger point
-55
nerve synapse
1. AP releases synapse. 2. calcium channels open. 3. calcium goes into presynaptic nerve. 4. vesicles are released into synapse. 5. NT released and bind to recepters on postsy 6. NT open the channels on postsy nerve. 7. reset by NT back to postsy
