Mitosis

a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus.

Cytokinesis

the cytoplasmic division of a cell at the end of mitosis or meiosis, bringing about the separation into two daughter cells.

Centromeres

the region of a chromosome to which the microtubules of the spindle attach.

Tissues

any of the distinct types of material of which animals or plants are made, consisting of specialized cells and their products.

Epithelial Tissue

line the outer surfaces of organs and blood vessels throughout the body, as well as the inner surfaces of cavities in many internal organs.

Simple epithelial tissue

One layer

Statiphied epithelial

Found as a protective covering where friction is common.

Stratified cuboidal

2 layers of cuboidal cells

Stratified columnar

Surface cells are columnar, cells underneath vary in size and shape

Transitional Epithelia

Shape of cells depends upon the amount stretching.

Glandular Epithelial

One or more cells responsible for secreting a particular product.

Endocrine gland

Ductless since secretions diffuse into blood vessels.

Endocrine gland

Ductless since secretions diffuse into blood vessels.
