Question Answer
Simply squamous epithelialpassage of materials by diffusion and filteration, secretes lube,
strattified squamous epithelialthick 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 epitheliumcube shaped, secretion and absorption, located in the Kidney tubules, ducts and secretory portions of glands
stratified cuboidal epithelium2 layers (usually), job is protection, location glands (salivary, mammary, sweat)
Simple columnar epitheliumcolumns with nucleus towards "basement" or basale, Job is absorption, lines the intestinal track. Location in the guts or intestins.
stratified columnar epithelialmany of layers elongated cells with nucleus at the base. Job is protection and secretion. Small amounts in the male uretha (rare)
transitional epitheliumresembles cuboidal and columnar but is neither, stretches and twists enough to be used in the bladder with out tearing
psudeostratified columnar epthieliumhas cillia to move stuff out of the trachea, not stratified, trachea and secretion
Areolargel matrix with 3 types fibers (fibroblast, macrophages, mast cells) Job: wraps and cushions. Location: widely distributed under the skin.
AdiposeDesc: 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
ReticularDesc: 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 RegularDesc: 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 IrrigularDesc: Mostly irregularly arranged collagen fibers, Fibroblast cells. Job: Able to stand tension exerted from many different directions. Location: dermis of skin, digestive tract, joints
HyalineDesc: 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.
ElasticDesc: close To hyaline but with more fibers. Job: maintains the shape of structure while allowing great flexibility. Location: ear
FibrocartilageDesc: 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.
BoneDesc: hard calcified matrix with collagen fibers. Job: support and protection, makes blood. Locations: bones
bloodDesc: red and white blood cells in plasma matrix. Job: transport respiritory gases, nutrients, waste, Location blood vessels
NueronsDesc: Nurons cells with branching cells processes. Job: transmit electrical signals from receptors to effectors, which control their activity. Location: brain spinal cord.
Skins 3 LayersEpidermis (on top), Dermis (middle), Hypodermis (deepest)
Epidermis layers (deep to superficial)Basale, spinosum, granulosum, lucidum (thick skin only), corneum
Dermis LayersPapillary (superficial) and Reticular (deeper)
Nerves of the DermisMeissner (light touch); Pacinian (deep touch); Free (pain)
Glands of dermissebacous, sweat (eccrine, apocrine) mammary, ceruminous (ear wax)
Sebacous GlandOily gland attached to hair, used to lube and move hair
Sweat glandsEccrine: insensible perspiration. Apocrine: sensible (aware) perspiration, stinky sweat crotch and armpit.
bone partsEpiphysis (ends of bone). Diaphysis (shaft), Medullary Cavity, Red (makes blood) and yellow(makes fat) marrow.
Osteoblastbuilds bone cells
Osteoclastsdestroys bone cells
epiphyseal platewhere the two bone building sites meet. When they are done you stop growing
Osteonbasic unit of bone
Central canal (Haversian)Main blood canal in bone
Canaliculus canalstiny canals radiating outward form the central canal to lacuna
LamellaSolid matrix
Lacunaplace 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
calcitoninhormone that makes osteoblasts turn on and make bone.
parathryoide hormonetells the osteoclasts to destroy bone
4 items that are needed for good bone growthCalcium (in diet), vitamin D, Wolfs law (if you stress a bone...bone gets thicker), Hormones estrogen
Joint StructureFiberous, Cartilagenous, Synovial
Fiberous Joint type, function and locationSuture (skull), Syndesmosis (ankle), gomphosis (teeth). Welding bones with fiber.
Cartilagenous type, function and locationFibrocartilage (symphysis), Hyaline (synchondrosis). Ribs and spine.
synovial type, function and locationBones held together by fluid in a membrane with synovial fluid, shoulder, ball and socket
Joint movementsynarthrotic (no movement), Amphiarthrotic (some movement), Diarthrotic (lots of movement)
Joint movement and type of jointsFibrous (synarthrotic), Cartilagenous (amphiathrotic), Synovial (Diarthrotic)
periosteum membrane that covers all bones
endosteum incomplete cellular layer that lives in the medullary
the rule of f'sMuscle>Bundles>cells>organelles>Chemicals or Filaments>>>> to Flesh>Fascicles>Fibers>Fibrils>Filaments
Connective tissue types around musclesEpimysium>Flesh, Perimysium>Fascicles, Endomysium>Fibers
Sarcoplasmcytoplasm for muscle cells
sarcolemmacell membrane for muscle cells
transverse tubulesholes in the sarcolemma
sarcoplasmic reticulumER for the muscles
filamentmyosin = 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 characteristicsGlucose + Air (oxygen), lots of atp created, lasts for hours
anaerobic respiration characteristicsglucose makes 2 atp lasts for 15 seconds, byproduct is lactic acid
White Fiber (Muscle Cell) CharacteristicsLarge in diameter, more powerful and pull, low oxygen, anaerobic respiration, low endurance also called fast twitch
Red Fiber (Muscle Cell) CharacteristicsSmaller in diameter, less power, lots of blood, air mitochondria, areobic with high endurance
The motor unitWhen 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 TypesAstrocyte, microglial, ependymal, schwann, oligondrendrocyte
Astrocytelooks like a star, protects, feeds, loves
microglialsmall, immunity role
ependymalmoves fluid along in the brain
schwann cellmakes myelin sheath
oligondrendrocytemakes myelin sheath
neuron partscell body, axon, dendrite
Flow of neural message through neuronin the dendrite and out the axon
Axon characteristicsthe output in a neuron, the bigger the wire the faster the message gets sent
Myelin sheathcreates more insolation and that means that there is less leaking.
nerve sizes and locationsbig fat nerves in the eyeballs, small and thin in the stomach
nerve process1. 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 synapse1. 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
