Transporters |
1. moveions & molecules across membrane 2.active & passive transport |
|
Channels |
1. allowions to cross membrane 2. passive transport |
|
Receptors |
1. bind signaling molecules 2. transfer information across membrane |
|
endocytosis(pinocytosis / phagocytosis) |
move things into a cell |
|
exocytosis |
move things out of a cell |
|
microvilli |
increases surface area of a cell, has actin (protein) in it |
|
cilia |
move fluid at surface of a cell |
|
flagella |
moves a cell |
|
centrioles |
cell division |
|
transcription |
happens in the nucleus needs transcription factors DNA template makes mRNA |
|
translation |
happens in the cytosol (cytoplasm) needs ribosomes mRNA template makes protein |
|
genetic code |
codon triplet with 3 bases code for one amino acid |
|
Rough ER |
translation on ribosomes protein transport |
|
smooth ER |
produce and secrete lipids detoxification |
|
ribosomes |
make proteins |
|
tight junctions |
no movement of molecules between cells ex. gastrointestinal tract |
|
desmosomes (belts) |
strong intercellular attachments that allows cells to move together as a sheet ex. skin |
|
gap junctions |
intercellular connections between cytoplasms of adjacent cells ex. epithelian tissue, heart muscle smooth muscle |
|
epithelial layers |
simple– single cell layer pseudostratified – single / several cell layer stratified– many cell layer |
|
epithelial cell types |
squamous– flat cuboidal – cube shaped columnar – long & tall |
|
Simple Squamous Epithelial tissue |
small intestines |
|
Simple cuboidal epithelial tissue |
kidney tubules |
|
simple columnar epithelial tissue |
small intestines |
|
pseudo-stratified epithelial tissue |
trachea |
|
stratified squamous epithelial tissue |
epidermis vagina |
|
stratified cuboidal epithelial tissue |
sweat gland |
|
glands |
endrocrine (hormones) exocrine acinus duct |
|
exocrine glands |
(1) simple coiled tubular, e.g., sweatgland (2)compound acinar, e.g., mammary gland (3)compound tubuloacinar,e.g., pancreas |
|
exocrine glands types of secretions |
1. Serous – thin, watery secretions e.g.,sweat, saliva, tears 2. Mucous – thick, sticky secretions e.g.,small intestine, saliva |
|
exocrine glands mechanisms of secretions |
1. Merocrine (aka,eccrine) – secretory vesicles e.g.,sweat, saliva, tears 2. Apocrine – loses part of cell (membrane &cytoplasm) e.g.,sweat, mammary glands 3. Holocrine – whole cell is lost e.g.,sebaceous gland (skin hair follicles) |
|
connective tissue types |
A)connective tissue proper B) fluid connective tissue C) supporting connective tissue |
|
connective tissue proper |
loose(areolar & reticular) dense (regular & irregular) |
|
loose areolar connective tissue proper |
found in mesentery, adipose tissue, and female breasts |
|
loose reticular connective tissue proper |
spleen |
|
dense regular connective tissue proper |
tendons |
|
dense irregular connective tissue proper |
dermis |
|
fluid connective tissue |
blood & lymph |
|
blood |
plasma+cells |
|
blood cells |
(1) red blood cells (RBCs), aka,erythrocytes – w/ hemoglobin for O2transport (2) white blood cells (WBCs) – immunesystem (3)platelets – not cells, but cell fragments – blood clotting |
|
lymphatic cells |
