Biology Chapter 1

QuestionAnswer
cell membrane allows materials to go in and out. Holds cells together
Mitochondria power supply
Nucleus controls all activities. DNA is on the Nucleus
DNA stands for: Deoxyrobonucleacacid
the things that are make up cells are called organelles
Nucleolus located inside the nucleus, provides ribosomes. Critical in protein synthesis
Ribosomes Used for protein synthesis
Rough endoplasmic reticulum holds ribosomes
smooth endoplasmic reticulum does not hold ribosomes
Lysosomes waste disposal. When cells produce waste lysosomes get rid of it
Vacuole involved in digestion, some hold water, some hold food. Cellular digestion occurs hear
Golgi looks like a stack of pennies. packages macromolecules for transport elsewhere in the cell
The order in which things are made up in your body is? Organelles, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organism
Assembly cells assembly cells make hormones/enzymes in your body that speed up reactions in your body
Movement cells Cells for movement, they create movement
Absorbing cells Absorbs in the respiratory, digestive/ absorbs nutrients
Tissues Tissues are groups of the same kind of cells that perform the same job and function
The four kinds of tissue are: muscle tissue, nerve tissue, epithelial tissue, and connective tissue
Muscle tissue allows movement skeletal (striated/striped) attached to bone smooth muscle tissue (lining on organs and cavitites) ex: stomach, lungs, blood vessels Cardiac: heart, entire heart is a muscle
Connective tissue bones, ligaments, tendons. Pads and connects Bone-moves and supports body, supports muscle's shape and structure LBB- ligaments connect bone to bone to blood TBM- tendons connect bones to muscle
Osteocyte's are: bone cells
Blood . transports O2, nutrients, and CO2 throughout body. Also gets waste away from cells
Fat acts as insulation, protection, and long term energy
Epithelial tissue skin and outer lining. protection. Helps maintain body temperature and transport materials
Homeostasis maintains a balance in your body between internal and external environments. Ex: You drink water to cool you off after sweating during exercise, since water helps homeostasis. Homeostasis cools your body down to its regular temperature.
Nerve tissue Acts as a messenger system. Sends messages in nerves. Sends messages between your body and your brain. Always passes through spinal cord
Organs organs are different tissues with different function but come together to do one job. ex heart liver stomach
Organ systems different organs with different functions come together to perform one major task or jobs
Skeletal system made up of bones and bone cells. Supports and protects you, allows posture, allows your muscles to move. Also makes blood.
