a human starts with one cell, the zygote. the zygote results from the fusion of the sperm & egg. an adult human has 50 trillion cells. the process of going from one cell to many cells requires cell divison.
|
mitosis
|
|
the divison of the nucleus into 2 identical nuclei
|
mitosis
|
|
prokaryotic cells divide using different process called?
|
binary fission
|
|
chromosomes are linear structures of DNA. when the chromosomes enter mitosis, they have already been duplicated and you have 2 starnd joined in the middle. the starnds are called_________, and the region they are joined is called the _____
|
sister chromatids
centromeres |
|
the cell cycle consiste of 5 parts
|
g1
s g2 m c |
|
growth phase 1, this is the most of the life of a cell

g1
|
|
this is where the DNA is replicated
|

|
this is the second growth stage, the DNA has already replicated
|
g2
|
|
cytokinesis- cell divides

c
|
|

|
interphase
|
|
mitosis has 4 phases
|
prophase
metaphase anaphase telophase |
|
a. when the DNA starts becomes visiable under the light microscope, prophase has begun
b. nuclear membrane disintegrates c. nucleolus disappears d. chromosomes finish condensing e. mitotic spindle begins to form f. spindle attaches to kinetochores |
prophase
|
|
a. chromosomes are aligned along this plate
b. this phase plate is basically the equator of the cell |
metaphase
|
|
a. microtubules start shorten, this action pull the sister chromartids apart
b. the chromosomes start to move towards the poles of the cell bia the shortening of the microtubules |
anaphase
|
|
a.chromosomes reach the poles of the cell
b. kinetochores disappear c. nuclear membrane forms around DNA d. nucleous reappears e. DNA stats to unpack f. cytokinesis begins |
telophase
|
|
cytokinesis happens in 2 ways
|
cleavage furrows
cell plate |
|
in animals the cell starts to pinch in half(cytokinesis)
|
cleavage furrows
|
|
plant cells cannot pinch in half because of the cell wall, instead a plate forms bw the new daughter cells(cytokinesis)
|
cell plate
|
|
tissues are collections of cells, but they also have an extracellular component. the non-cellular component of a tissue is called? and ex would be cartilage, you have cells and a ____ that surrounds the cells
|
matrix
|
|
veterbrates tissues fall into 4 catefories
|
epithelial(skin)
connective tissue(bone,blood,cartilage) muscle tissue nervous tissue |
|
these tissues from sheets covering the outer surfaces or lining inner surfaces of organs. some ____cells make up gland used for secretion
|
epithelial tissue (skin)
|
|
these tissues bind nody parts together, form protective barriers, protect aginst infection, support the body, and store certain chem icals
|
connective tissues(bone, blood, cartilage, and others)
|
|
these tissues are responsible for producing movement. some can be controlled voluntarily and someare control involuntary
|
muscle tissue
|
|
these tissues send, conduct, and recieve electrical impulses. this allows diff parts of the body to communicate involuntary
|
nervous tissue
|
|
studying animal tissues
|
cell shape
cell location cell arrangement matrix |
|
cell shape
|
square, round, flat, tall, elongate
|
|
cell location
|
are cells next to an open surface or completely surrounded by cells
|
|
cell arrangement
|
cells in one layer, multiple layers? aligned in one direction? randomly arranged?
|
|
matrix
|
does the matrix have fibers or is it amorphous?
do the fibers line up or are they randomly? |
|
hese cells make up our up puter coverings and inner linings. these cells will be exposed to a free surfac; there should be a clear area on the slide
|
the epithelial tisues
|
|
basic shapes
|
squamos
cuboidal colimnar transitional |
|
flattened cells
|
squamos
|
|
cuboidal
|
same height and width, not always cube shaped
|
|
tranitional
|
there are epithelia hat can stretch, depend on how stretched they are these tissues can appear flat or cuboidal. urinary bladder epithelium is an example.
|
|
this is the tissue that the epithelial cells rest on
|
basement membrane
|
|
epithelial cell arrangements
|
simple
stratified pseudostratified |
|
a single layer of epithelial cells, all cells touch the basement membrane
|
simple
|
|
more then one layer of cells, only the lowest layer touches the baement membrane
|
stratified
|
|
these cells resemble stratified, but the cell are of diff heights and all the cell touch the bsement membrane, this is still a simple epithelium
|
pseudostratified
|
|
these cells form a single flat layer of cells. forms outer coating of many internal organs
|
simple squamous epithelium
|
|
at a high power you can se a single layer of flattened epithelial cells on a slide labled?
|
visceral peritoneum
|
|
these cells form a single layer of cells that are as tall as they are wide, (not always perfectly square)
|
simple cuboidal epithelium
(slide marked kidney or simple cubodial epithelium) |
|
these cells for a single layer, the cells are much taller than wide like columns
|
simple columnar epithelium
|
|
in the lumen of the small intstine, there are fingerlike projections called____
each____is covered with a simple columnar epithelium |
villi
villus (slide marked goblet cell epithelium or small intestine) |
|
looks like stratified, but all cells touch the basement membrane. cells have cilia on exposed side
|
pseudostratified columnar epithelium
(slide marked trachea& ciliated columnar epithelium) |
