Nucleolus |
produces ribosomal proteins |
|
Golgi Apparatus |
processes, packages, and secretes modified proteins |
|
Ribosomes |
plays an important role in protein synthesis, contain concentration of RNA |
|
Smooth ER |
synthesizes lipids and plays a role in detoxification |
|
Rough ER |
transports proteins |
|
Cell Membrane |
controls exchange of materials inside and outside of the cell |
|
Cytosol |
intracellular gel-like fluid where chemical reactions occur |
|
Flagellum |
used for locomotion |
|
Mitochondrion |
cell's power plant |
|
Lysosome |
breaks down molecules that enter the cell |
|
Centrioles |
aids in cell division |
|
Cytoskeleton |
provides structural organization |
|
Nucleus |
contains DNA, controls cellular activity, plays central role in heredity |
|
Vesicle |
sac that stores and transports substances |
|
Microtubules |
protein cylinders that move organelles |
|
Prophase |
nuclear envelope breaks down and the nucleus looks less defined, centrioles migrate to opposite poles of the cell |
|
Metaphase |
the mitotic spindle has attached to the centromere of each chromosome and the chromosomes line up along the midline |
|
Anaphase |
sister chromatid separate from each other and the mitotic spindles pulls them towards opposite poles of the cell |
|
Telophase |
chromosomes begin to disperse,spindle fibers break down |
|
Interphase |
3 Phases G1 Growth
S Phase
G2 Phase |
|
Epithelium |
lines and covers body surfaces |
|
Connective Tissue |
protect, support, and bind together. The most abundant and widely distributed tissue type in the human body.
|
|
Muscular Tissue |
produces movement |
|
Nervous Tissue |
receive stimuli and conduct impulses |
|
Simple |
cells are found in a single layer attached to the basement membrane |
|
Stratified |
cells are found in 2 or more layers stacked atop each other |
|
Pseudostratified |
a single layer of cells the appears to be multiple layers due to variance in height and location of the nuclei in the cell |
|
Transitional |
cells are rounded and can sliSde across one another to allow stretching |
|
Squamous |
flat, thin, scale-like cells |
|
Cuboidal |
cells that have a basic cube shape. Typically the cell's height and width are about equal. |
|
Columnar |
tall, rectangular or column-shaped cells. Typically taller than they are wide. |
|
4 Types of Connective Tissues |
1. Loose Connective Tissue a. Areolar b. Adipose c. Reticular 2. Cartilage a. dense irregular b. dense regular c. elastic 3. Bone 4. Blood
