What are the 4 general types of cells/tissues?
Epithelial
Connective
Muscle
Nerve
What are the types of connective tissue? (7)
Loose
Dense, irregular
Dense, regular
Adipose
Blood
Cartilage
Bone
What's an example of Loose Connective Tissue?
gelous tissue in skin: fibroblats
What's an example of Dense, Irregular Connective Tissue?
muscle and nerve sheaths: fibroblats
What's an example of Dense, Regular Connective Tissue?
tendons and ligaments: fibroblats
What's an example of Adipose Connective Tissue?
white fat, brown fat
What's an example of Cartilage Connective Tissue?
elastic, but fragile: chondrocytes
What's an example of Bone Connective Tissue?
calcified tissue: osteocytes, osteoblasts, osteoclasts
What are the types of epithelia? (6)
Exchange
Transporting
Secretory
Ciliated
Protective
Sensory
Exchange Epithelia
thin, leaky or fenestrated, hold no gradients
Transporting Epithelia
tight, can created and hold large concentration gradients
Secretory Epithelia
exocytosis/endocytosis, characterized with a high rate of membrane turnover
Ciliated Epithelia
occur in airways and female reproductive tract
Protective Epithelia
may be multilayer such as skin epidermis
Sensory Epithelia
contains sensory cells that form synapses with nerve endings: taste buds, hair cells in the inner ear
What does hydrostatic pressure do?
It counters the water influx from osmosis and sets the equilibrium where the net water flow is zero.
Equation for hydrostatic pressure difference at equilibrium:
P2-P1=RT(C2-C1)

P=pressure
C=concentration of solute
How do transport epithelial layers produce osmotic work?
By transporting substances uni-directionally and allow water to follow the flux of these substances.
A difference of C2-C1 = 1 mOsm creates pressure of _____
18.4 mmHg
In the most primitive animal, The
endoderm = ?
mesoderm = ?
ectoderm = ?
endoderm = gastrodermis
mesoderm = mesoglea
ectoderm = epidermis
About 550 M yrs ago, when ____ appeared, a branching occurred between:
________ with _____ cleavage
________ with _____ cleavage
Hox genes

Protostome with spiral cleavage

Deuterostome with radial cleavage
Deuterostoma:
the primary mouth (embryonic invagination) becomes an anus
What's derived from coelomic cavities?
Kidneys
Reproductive organs
Peritoneal, pleural cavities
Cardiac sack
The very first body compartment is _____, which is _________
the stomach, which is topologically a part of the external space
The primordial gastric cavity was made of _________. This division pre-difined the animal body development based three embryonic leaflets: _____, ____, and ______.
three layers
endoderm
mesoderm
ectoderm
Lungs appeared later in evolution and derived as ___________.
a ramification of the digestive tract.
Ectoderm Examples: (4)
1.Epidermis of skin & its derivatives
2. Lens of eye
3. Tooth enamel
4. Neuroendocrine glands: Adrenal medulla (part of the Sympathetic NS) and pituitary
Endoderm Examples (5)
1. Lining of gastrointestinal tract
2. Liver and pancreas
3. Epithelium of pharynx, auditory canal, larynx, trachea, lungs
4. Epitelium of thyroid and parathyroid glands and thymus
5. Urinary bladder and urethra
Mesoderm Examples: (7)
1. Endothelium of blood and lymphatic vessles, smooth muscles (surrounding blood vessels and GI tract, urinary system)
2. Heart & Blood
3. Skeletal muscles and bones (NOT SKULL!)
4. Kidneys, ureters, Gonads.
5. Connective tissue: cartilage and ligaments
6. Covering of internal organs and lining of body cavities, Adrenal cortex
7. Dermis of skin, dentin of teeth
Diffusion equation:
<x^2>=2Dt

<x^2> - mean square distance (cm^2)
D - diffusion coefficient (cm^2/s)
t - time interval (s)
