Human Biology Exam 1

Sep 27 2007

QuestionAnswer
What is the hardest matrix of connective tissue? Bone
What tissue is made of calcium salt deposits Bone
What's an osteoblast? Bone Cell
Where do osteoblasts reside? Lacunae
Bone tissue is highly vascular T or F? T
Haversian canals are tubes and channels in bone tissue that house numerous blood vessels
Red marrow makes RBC
blood cells are suspended in fluid matrix plasma
RBC erythrocytes
WBC Leukocytes
Platelets Thrombocytes
what tissue can contract, elongate muscle
3 types skeletal, cardiac, smooth
skeletal muscle is voluntary, multinucleated, striated, long
skeletal muscles are voluntary T of F T
smooth muscles are nonstriated, smaller than skeletal
smooth muscles are found in digestive tract
cardiac muscles are found in heart and aorta (involuntary)
cardiac muscle cells are short, striated, intercalated disks
what does cardiac intercalated disks do? enable free ion exchange, special junctions for fast passage
Two nervous cells neurons and neuroglial
parts of neuron soma, axon, dendrites
part of neuron that sends impulse axon
soma is the ____ of a neuron body
reticluar tissue is thin and delicate T of F T
what forms the framework of liver spleen bone marrow and lymph nodes reticular tissue
Reticular tissue gives rise to macrophages true or false T
Dense connective tissue is made of what Collagen and close packed fibers
what are tendons and ligaments made of dense connective
ligament = bone to bone
tendon = bone to muscle
dense connective tissue doesn't heal fast due to poor blood supply
specialized connective tissue is otherwise known as cartilage
what's a chondrocyte cartilage cell
where do chondrocytes live lacunae
are there vessels in cartilage tissue no
3 types of cartilage tissue hyaline, elastic, fibrous
What carilage cell is the most widely distributed? Hyaline
what cartilage cell is the weakest Hyaline
what cartilge cell is yellow and the most flexible elastic
what cartilage cell is the strongest and most dense fibrous
what cartilage makes up the ends of long bones, the costal cartilage, and the nose hyaline
what cartilage makes up the external ear, epiglottis, and larynx elastic
what cartilage makes up the invertebrae disks, and the pubic symphis? fibrous
what is connective tissue made of fibers- collagen and elastin
what do connective tissues do bind things together ,support, protect, store fat, RBC production
connective tissue is widely seperated by a noncellular matrix
3 types of connective tissues fibroblast, mast cells, ad macrophages
most common connective tissue fibroblast
what connective tissue is a large star shape fibroblast
what connective tissue makes collagen and elastin fibroblast
what connective tissue cells are located near blood vessels mast cell
what does a mast cell contain heparin and histamine
where are macrophages attached to fibers
what do histocytes do help immunity (macrophages)
what connective tissue is made of fibroblasts loose connective (fibrous)
what does loose connective tissue do hold organs in place, hold tissue layers together
what tissue holds fat adipose
intercellular matrix is _____ around adipose tissue reduced
fat cells do store energy, inulate, protect
Gametes form morula
morulas form blastula
blastulas form zygotes
3 layers of blastula ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm
endoderm becomes gastric system
mesoderm becomes muscle, circulation, repoduction, skeletal
ectoderm becomes nervous and skin
epithelial tissues are for protection, excretion, absorption
epithelium is ______ linked and ________ layers tightly linked, one or more layers
_________ holds epithelial cells in place noncellular membrane or basement
shapes of cells squamous, cuboidal, columnar
irregular shape squamous
rectangle, tall shape columnar
little box shape cell cuboidal
4 types of cellular arrangement simple, stratified, pseudostratified, transitional
simple arrangement one cell layer
stratified arrangement several layers
psuedostratified appears to be two layers but in actuality is one layer
transitional layers of closely packed cells - soft pliable and easy to stretch (skin)
histology study of tissues
