synthesize vitamin D

3 pigments that impart a wide variety of colors to skin

melanin


hemoglobin


carotene

The ______ causes the skin's color to vary

amount of melanin

3.5 - 4x


used for scanning larger sections of the slide and for locating objects which are scattered over a considerable area of the slide

VERY LOW POWER OBJECTIVE

Effect of temperature on diffusion?

The higher the temperature, the faster the rate of diffusion. b/c atoms are more excited at higher temperature

tendon

It is found on many joint surfaces. It is pearly bluish in color with firm consistency and has a considerable amount of collagen. It contains no nerves or blood vessels, and its structure is relatively simple.

hyaline cartilage

A layer of connective tissue that lines the cavities of joints, tendon sheaths, and bursae and makes synovial fluid, which has a lubricating function.
