Most cancers are carcinomas (originate in epithelia cells). why?
Because epithelial cells go through cell division quickly and that creates a higher chance of mutation, which then causes cancer
Judy tore a knee cartilage on a skiing vacation. Can she expect a rapid recovery?
No, because cartilage is avascular.
The epidermis is a keratinized stratified squamous epithelium. Explain why this is much better suited for protecting the body's external surface.
Keratin is protective and because the tissue is stratified and has multiple layers it can withstand force from any direction
Where are mucous membranes found within the body?
lungs, digestive
Why is pseudostratified columnar is not actually stratified?
Because it is not multi layer, it just has the look of it
What are the 6 functions of the skeletal system?
support, protection, movement, mineral homeostasis, blood cell production, triglyceride storage
What is extracellular matrix composed of?
solid; 25% water, 25% collage, the rest is made up of salts

g. trabeculae
h. canaliculi
Which best describes:
a. cells that deposit bone matrix

Does the bone grow in length your entire life? If not, when does it stop? What about growth in thickness?
No, bones stop growing around the late teens and early twenties. Yes growth in thickness continues.

h. increases when blood calcium is low
i. synthesis of bone protein
j & k. drastic changes of bones, growth spurts
Why do you think wheelchair bound people with paralyzed lower limbs have thin, weak, leg and thigh bones?
Because the legs have no stress put on them, so that means there is no signal to increase bone mass.
Why do people living in northern climates need to be more concerned about their vitamin D intake than residents of the tropics?
The sun helps the body produce vitamin D
What mineral is most abundant in the skeleton and what is it so important to the rest of the body system?
Calcium; without calcium the brain won't function properly, neither will the nervous system, blood, muscles, and heart

What are the 4 steps of bone repair?
1. fracture hematoma - clotting factors (blood clot) and inflammation occurs (swelling, pain)
2. fibrocartilagenous callus formation - invasion of phagocytes which cleans away dead tissue, cells, etc; fibroblasts produce collagen and some differentiate into chondroblasts to form fibrocartilage
3. ossification of callus
osteogenic cells develop osteblasts and build trabecular (spongy bone)
4. callus is remodeled and builds compact bone

Osteoporosis is weak bones and rickets/osteomalacia is soft bones which cause bending of the bones
What is osteosarcoma? Who is more susceptible? Why?
A cancer. Kids are more susceptible because their bones are growing at a higher rate than adults
