Question Answer
Simply squamous epithelial  passage of materials by diffusion and filteration, secretes lube,

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)  
Epidermis layers (deep to superficial)  Basale, spinosum, granulosum, lucidum (thick skin only), corneum  
Dermis Layers  Papillary (superficial) and Reticular (deeper)  
Nerves of the Dermis  Meissner (light touch); Pacinian (deep touch); Free (pain)  
Glands of dermis  sebacous, sweat (eccrine, apocrine) mammary, ceruminous (ear wax)  
Sebacous Gland  Oily gland attached to hair, used to lube and move hair  
Sweat glands  Eccrine: insensible perspiration. Apocrine: sensible (aware) perspiration, stinky sweat crotch and armpit.  
bone parts  Epiphysis (ends of bone). Diaphysis (shaft), Medullary Cavity, Red (makes blood) and yellow(makes fat) marrow.  
Osteoblast  builds bone cells  
Osteoclasts  destroys bone cells  
epiphyseal plate  where the two bone building sites meet. When they are done you stop growing  
Osteon  basic unit of bone  
Central canal (Haversian)  Main blood canal in bone  
Canaliculus canals  tiny canals radiating outward form the central canal to lacuna  
Lamella  Solid matrix  
Lacuna  place where bone cell resides  
Perforating fibers (Sharpey's)  between periosteum and bone matrix  
Perforating Canals (Volkmann's)  Canals that run perpendicular to the central canal  
calcitonin  hormone that makes osteoblasts turn on and make bone.  
parathryoide hormone  tells the osteoclasts to destroy bone  
4 items that are needed for good bone growth  Calcium (in diet), vitamin D, Wolfs law (if you stress a bone...bone gets thicker), Hormones estrogen  
Joint Structure  Fiberous, Cartilagenous, Synovial  
Fiberous Joint type, function and location  Suture (skull), Syndesmosis (ankle), gomphosis (teeth). Welding bones with fiber.  
Cartilagenous type, function and location  Fibrocartilage (symphysis), Hyaline (synchondrosis). Ribs and spine.  
synovial type, function and location  Bones held together by fluid in a membrane with synovial fluid, shoulder, ball and socket  
Joint movement  synarthrotic (no movement), Amphiarthrotic (some movement), Diarthrotic (lots of movement)  
Joint movement and type of joints  Fibrous (synarthrotic), Cartilagenous (amphiathrotic), Synovial (Diarthrotic)  
periosteum  membrane that covers all bones  
endosteum  incomplete cellular layer that lives in the medullary  
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
the rule of f's  Muscle>Bundles>cells>organelles>Chemicals or Filaments>>>> to Flesh>Fascicles>Fibers>Fibrils>Filaments  
Connective tissue types around muscles  Epimysium>Flesh, Perimysium>Fascicles, Endomysium>Fibers  
Sarcoplasm  cytoplasm for muscle cells  
sarcolemma  cell membrane for muscle cells  
transverse tubules  holes in the sarcolemma  
sarcoplasmic reticulum  ER for the muscles  
filament  myosin = thick, Actin=Thin  
Contracting action on filaments  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  
Glial Cell Types  Astrocyte, microglial, ependymal, schwann, oligondrendrocyte  
Astrocyte  looks like a star, protects, feeds, loves  
microglial  small, immunity role

neuron parts  cell body, axon, dendrite  
Flow of neural message through neuron  in the dendrite and out the axon  
Axon characteristics  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
