describe and classify as an active or passive transport method: active transport active; uses ATP, moves against concentration gradient
describe and classify as an active or passive transport method: bulk-phase endocytosis active; eats a droplet of solute and whatever is in it
describe and classify as an active or passive transport method: diffusion passive; molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
describe and classify as an active or passive transport method: exocytosis active; anything moving out of a cell
describe and classify as an active or passive transport method: facilitated diffusion passive; involves channel proteins
describe and classify as an active or passive transport method: osmosis the diffusion of water
describe and classify as an active or passive transport method: phagocytosis active; one cell eating another cell
describe and classify as an active or passive transport method: solute (ion) pumps active; moving ions across membranes using channels
describe and classify as an active or passive transport method: receptor-mediated endocytosis active; selective molecule intake using receptors
describe how water will move for a cell in each of these solutions:isotonichypotonichypertonic isotonic: water in=water out, cell stays the same sizehypotonic: water in>water out, cell swellshypertonic: water<water out, cell shrinks
name and describe the four tissues: epithelial - covers surface; involved with protection, absorption and secretionconnective - binds, supports and protects; cells in a matrixmuscle - movement and heat productionnervous - communication
identify endocrine gland: secretes into blood
identify exocrine gland: secretes into ducts
identify fibroblasts: make fibers
describe simple squamous epithelium: on layer of flat cells on a surface
describe stratified squamous epithelium: several layers of flat cells
describe pseudostratified columnar epithelium: looks stratified but is not, cells are column shaped
describe simple cuboidal epithelium: one layer or cube-shaped cells
describe simple columnar epithelium: one layer of column-shaped cells
describe transitional epithelium: changes shape
discribe areolar CT: loose CT made of fibroblasts, elasitc fibers, and collegen fibers
discribe dense regular CT: made of collagen fibers and fibroblasts
discribe dense irregular CT: made of collegen fibers and fibroblasts
discribe adipose tissue: fat, made of adipocytes, stores lipids
describe hyaline cartilage: chondocytes in lacunae/ground substance
describe fibrocartilage: chondrocytes in lacunae/ground substance/collagen fibers
describe elastic cartilage: chondrocytes in lacunae/ ground substance/elastic fibers
describe bone: osteocytes in lacunae/collagen fibers/calcium and phosphate salts
describe blood: WBC and RBC in plasma matrix
describe skeletal muscle: has striations
describe cardiac muscle: has striations and intercalated disks

describe neuroglia: support cell
state makeup and location for serous membrane: epithelium and CT; closed cavities
state makeup and location for synovial membrane: CT; between free-moving joints
state makeup and location for cutaneous membrane: epithelium and CT, skin
state makeup and location for mucous membrane: epithelium and CT, lines open cavities
distinguish between visceral and parietal: visceral is on surface or organ and parietal lines cavity
distinguish among peritoneum, pericardium, and pleura: peritoneum: abdominopelvic cavitypericardium: heartpleura: lungs

describe the dermis in terms of tissue, function, and blood supply: most tissues, toughness, vascular
describe the hypodermis in terms of tissue, function, and blood supply: adipose tissue, insulation, vascular
name the five layers of "thick skin" epidermis from superficial to deep: stratum corneum, stratum lucidum, stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, stratum basale
what is the source, location and signicance of melanin: melanocytes; stratum basale; UV protection
what is the source, location and signicance of keratin: keratinocytes; basale; waterproofing
identify dermal papillae: allows nutrients from the dermis to get to the epidermis
identify Meissner's corpuscles: nerve endings
identify: arrector pili: responsable for goosebumps
identify sebum: oil
identify Pacinian corpuscles: pressure receptors
identify lunula: half moons on fingernails

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
