Bio 3 Lecture 6

QuestionAnswer
What are tissues? Group of cells that are similar in structure and function
What are called the 3 fundamental embryonic tissues and what are they? The germ layers so the ectoderm, the mesoderm and the endoderm
What are the 4 primary tissues in adult vertebrates? Epithelial, connective, muscle and nerve
What is the function of epithelial tissues? They cover and line surfaces and body cavities
What are the divisions of epithelial tissues? There's 2 big categories: simple and stratified. Simple has a cuboidal, columnar and squamous sub-layer. Stratified has a squamous and columnar sub-layer.
[Epithelial simple] What are the functions of the simple squamous, cuboidal and columnar subtypes? Simple Squamous: Lines lungs and capillaries Simple cuboidal: Lines small ducts of glands Simple columnar: Lines respiratory tracts with cilia and in the intestines as well
[Epithelial stratified] What are the functions of the startified squamous and columnar subtypes? Stratified squamous is the outer layer of skin (mouth) and is found in areas with friction. Stratified columnar is the lining of the respiratory tracts with cilia. It has a protection function
What is the difference between epithelial simple and stratified? Simple has one layer while stratified has multiple layers.
Recongnize the epithelial type visually!! Go see images in the concept map or ppw
What is the function of connective tissues? They connect, insulate and transport
What are the divisions of connective tissues? There's proper and special. In proper, there's loose and dense (dense has regular dense and irregular dense). In special there's cartilage, bone and blood.
[Connective proper] What is proper loose? What is it strenghten by? What is an example? It's cells scattering within a ground substance. The material is strengthened by collagen and elastin. Adipose tissue
[Connective proper] What is proper dense? What is it strenghten by? Example? Proper dense is stronger than loose connective tissues. It's tighly packed collagen fibers. Tendons is an example.
[Connective proper] What are the 2 sub-types of proper dense? There's dense regular and dense irregular. Regular are things like tendons and ligaments. Irregular are though coverings for packaging organs.
[Connective special] What is special cartilage and where is it found in animal and humans? It's tougher than the loose connective tissue and it's found in skeleton of sharks. In humans, found in the nose, pinna, larynx and between the joints and bones.
[Connective special] Give an example of cells of special cartilage Cells called chondrocytes (XT detail: scattered sites through the cartilage and receive nutrition by diffusion)
[Connective special] Special blood has many cell types, what are they and what are their functions? There's erythocytes, leukocytes, placelets and plasma. Erythocytes carry oxygen. Leukocytes are for immunity. Placelets are fragments of cells that help in forming blood clots. Plasma carry food, waste. macromolecules and hormones
[Connective special] Identify white blood cells, red blood cells and placelets in an image Go see slide 12
[Connective special] Special bone has many types of cells, what are they and what are their role? There's osteocytes and canaliculi. Osteocytes are the cells that live within a lacunae. Canaliculi are tiny canals that allow the osteocytes to communicate with the blood cells.
[Connective special] In special bone, what is the Harversian system? The area of the bone that contains the osteocytes, the canaliculi and the lacuna, plus the Haversian canal in the center.
[Connective special] Identify parts of the special bone tissue see slide 13
What is the function of muscular tissues? Movement (voluntary and involuntary)
What are the divisions of muscular tissues? There's cardiac, smooth and skeletal
[Muscular cardiac] What's the type of control? Function and structure. What is it? It's involuntary control and it's striated muscle with one nucleus per cell. Intercalated discs present. Heart of veterbrates. Function: interconnected cells, promotes rapid spread of signal ignitiating contraction.
[Muscular skeletal] What's the type of control? Function and structure. What is it? It's voluntary control and it's striated. It has long cells and the muscle cells together form a muscle fiber. It's multinucleatedd and contain actin and myosin filaments. Function: Powers walking, lifting, talking and all other voluntary movement.
What is the function of nervous tissue? Controls nerve impulses
What is the neuron composed of? What do they do? The cell body, the axon and dendrites. Cell body contains the nucleus. Axon: Impulses are conducted away from the cell body. Dendrites: Receive impulses coming from other neurons.
Identify a neuron slide 18
What is the anatomical position? Hands toward the sides, palms facing foward, feet together and facing foward, eyes facing fowards.
What is bilateral symmetry? a term meaning that right and left sides of the body are mirror images
What are the body's major regions? Head (cephalic), trunk, upper limbs, lower limbs
What can be found in the trunk? thoracic, pelvic and abdominal region
What can be found in the upper limbs? Phalangeal, carpal, axilary, antecubital, antebrachial region
What can be found in the lower limbs? Femoral, patellar, crural and pedal region
[Directional Terms] What is superior? Toward the head
[Directional Terms] What is inferior? Away from the head and toward the lower part
[Directional Terms] What is ventral (anterior)? [Melyka arrows!] toward the front of the body
[Directional Terms] What is dorsal (posterior)? [Contraire de Melyka arrows] Toward the backside of the body
[Directional Terms] What is medial? Toward the middle of the body
[Directional Terms] What is lateral? Contrary of medial, away from the middle of the body
[Directional Terms] What is proximal? Close to the origin of the body part/point of attachment
[Directional Terms] What is distal? Farther from the origin of the body part/point of attachment.
[Directional Terms] What is superficial (external)? Toward or at the body surface
[Directional Terms] What is deep (internal)? Away from the body surface, more internal
[Directional Terms] Give the term for: the nose to the mouth Superior
[Directional Terms] Give the term for: the lungs to the rib cage Deep
[Directional Terms] Give the term for: the elbow to the hand Proximal
[Directional Terms] Give the term for: the foot to the knee Distal
[Directional Terms] Give the term for: the eye to the ear Medial
[Directional Terms] Give the term for: the thumb to the little finger (fifth digit) Lateral
[Directional Terms] Give the term for: the head to the thorax Superior
[Directional Terms] Give the term for: the skin to the skeleton Superficial
[Directional Terms] Give the term for: the brain to the skull Deep
[Directional Terms] Give the term for: the knee to the thigh Distal
[Directional Terms] Give the term for: the heart to the arm Medial
[Directional Terms] Give the term for: the arm to the chest lateral
The collabone to the breastbone and shoulder intermediate
[Directional Terms] What is intermediate? In between 2 structures
