Protein synthesis	is the process by which cells build proteins, which are essential for structure, function, and regulation of the body’s tissues and organs. It occurs in two main stages: transcription and translation.
Epithelial membranes	are thin layers of tissue that cover surfaces, line body cavities, and form protective barriers. They are made of epithelial tissue and an underlying layer of connective tissue. There are three main types:Cutaneous Membrane (Skin)Mucous Membrane (Mucosa)S
Cartilage	is a type of connective tissue that is firm, flexible, and provides support and cushioning in the body. It is avascular (lacks blood vessels), so it heals more slowly than other tissues. Cartilage is made up of chondrocytes (cartilage cells) embedded in a
Dermis	is the middle layer of the skin, located beneath the epidermis and above the subcutaneous layer (hypodermis). It is thicker than the epidermis and is made primarily of connective tissue, which gives the skin strength, flexibility, and elasticity.
Organic Matrix	refers to the fibrous, living portion of connective tissue that provides flexibility, strength, and support. In bone, it is part of the extracellular matrix and is composed mainly of: Collagen fibers: Provide tensile strength and flexibility. Proteoglyc
Meosis	is a type of cell division that produces sex cells (gametes—sperm in males, eggs in females) with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. This is essential for sexual reproduction because it ensures that offspring have the correct chromosome
Deltoid	is a large, triangular-shaped muscle located on the shoulder. It is responsible for the rounded contour of the shoulder and plays a major role in arm movement.
Rectus Femoris	is one of the four muscles that make up the quadriceps femoris group in the anterior (front) thigh. It is unique among the quadriceps because it crosses both the hip and knee joints, making it a biarticular muscle.
Osteoblasts	are specialized bone cells responsible for bone formation. They play a key role in building and maintaining the skeletal system.
