A & P Lab Exercise 1 & 2

Front 1

The walls of the ventral body cavity and the outer surfaces of the organs it contains are covered with an exceedingly thin, double layered membrane called the ______.

Back 1

Serosa or serous membrane

Front 2

The part of the membrane lining the cavity walls is referred to as the _____.

Back 2

Parietal serosa

Front 3

The parietal serosa is continuous with a similar membrane covering the external surface of the organs within the cavity is the _______.

Back 3

Visceral serosa

Front 4

The serosa lining the abdominal cavity and covering its organs is the ______.

Back 4

Peritoneum

Front 5

Encloses the lungs is the _______.

Back 5

Pleura

Front 6

Around the heart is the _______.

Back 6

Pericardium

Front 7

Tiny spherical bodies composed of RNA and protein; actual sites of protein synthesis; floating free or attached to the rouh ER in the cytoplasm.

Back 7

Ribosomes

Front 8

Membranous system of tubules that extend throughout the cytoplasm.

Back 8

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Front 9

Studded with ribosomes with tubules that provide an area for storage and transport of the proteins made on the ribosomes to other cell areas.

Back 9

Rough endoplasmic reticulum

Front 10

Has no function in protein synthesis rather it is a site of steroid and lipid synthesis, lipid metabolism, and drug detoxification.

Back 10

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

Front 11

Stack of flattened sacs with bulbous ends and associated small vesicles; found close to the nucleus; plays a role in pckaging proteins or other substances for export from the cell or incorporation into the plasma membrane and in packaging lysosomal enzymes

Back 11

Golgi apparatus

Front 12

Various-sized membranous sacs containing digestive enzymes; function to digest worn-out cell organelles and foreign substance that enter the cell; have the capacity of total cell destruction if ruptured

Back 12

Lysosomes

Front 13

Small lysosome-like membranous sacs containing oxidase enzymes that detoxify alcohol, hydrogen peroxide and other harmful chemicals

Back 13

Peroxisomes

Front 14

Generally rod-shaped bodies with a double-membrane wall; inner membrane is thrown into folds, or cristae; contain enzymes that oxidize foodstuff's to produce cellular energy (ATP); often referred to as "powerhouse of the cells"

Back 14

Mitochondria

Front 15

Paried, cylindrical bodies lie at right angles to each other, close to the nucleus; direct the formation of the mitotic spindle during cell division; form the bases of cilia and flagella.

Back 15

Centrioles
