Name the 11 major systems that compose the human body.

1. Integumentary 2. Skeletal 3. Muscular 4. Nervous 5. Endocrine 6. Cardiovascular 7. Lymphatic/Immune 8. Respiratory 9. Digestive 10. Urinary 11. Reproductive

What 4 elements make up about 96% of the material in the human body?

1. Carbon 2. Oxygen 3. Hydrogen 4. Nitrogen

What is the octet rule?

Atoms with fewer than 8 electrons in the outer energy level attempting to lose, gain, or share electrons with other atoms to achieve stability.

What is the difference between the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) and the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER)?

RER: Has ribosomes attached to the surface giving it that appearance. SER: Lacks ribosomes. RER: Synthesizes and transports proteins SER: Lipid production, detoxification, and calcium storage.

What is the difference between microvilli, cilia, and flagella?

Microvilli - fingerlike projections that increase the surface area of absorption. Cilia - fine processes that transport fluid across the surface of the cell. Flagella - single elongated processes that enable cell mobility.

What are the four major types of tissues of the human body?

Epithelial, Connective, Muscle, and Nervous

What are the 3 most common types of Epithelial membranes? Give an example of each.

1. Cutaneous (skin) 2. Serous (parietal, visceral, pleura, and peritoneum) 3. Mucus/mucosa (Lining of the organs that open to the exterior)

What are the 3 major types of bone cells?

1. Osteocyte (bone maintainer) 2. Osteoblast (bone maker) 3. Osteoclast (bone-destroyer)

What cell is mainly found in cartilage? Also, why does cartilage take so long to heal?

Chondrocyte Cartilage is avascular and relies on diffusion for nutrients.

What are the 3 major muscle types and note if they are voluntary and striated.

Skeletal: striated voluntary Smooth: nonstriated involuntary Cardiac: striated involuntary

What are the different layers of the skin starting from the deepest?

Stratum basale -> Stratum spinosum -> Stratum granulosum -> Stratum lucidum -> Stratum corneum

How many bones are in the human body and how is the skeleton divided?

Axial skeleton - 80 bones Appendicular skeleton - 126
