Tissues
Cell extension that propels material above and away a cell's surface.
What is cilia?
Site of protein synthesis.
What are ribosomes?
The border of the cell that regulates what enters or leaves the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
Spontaneous movement where small particles are moved from areas of high concentration to low concentration.
What is simple diffusion?
Tissue type that forms the kidney tubules.
What is simple cuboidal epithelium?
Cell extension that increases surface area for absorption.
What is microvilli?
Considered the powerhouse of the cell. Produces cellular energy.
What is the mitochondria?
The cell membrane is composed of a ______ ________.
What is phospholipid bilayer?
Diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane.
What is osmosis?
Dominant fiber found in fibrocartilage that gives tensile strength.
What are collagen fibers?
Tissue type that is found in the heart. It has intercalated discs.
What is cardiac muscle?
Cell extension that provides locomotion.
What is flagella?
In a phospholipid, the head is considered to be:
What is polar/hydrophilic?
Based on the number of particles outside the cell and determines the diffusion of water across a cell membrane.
What is tonicity?
A different name fore bone tissue.
What is osseous tissue?
Loose connective tissue type that contains primarily lipids.
What is adipose tissue?
Organelle inside the nucleus that produces rRNA and assembles ribosomal subunits.
What is the nucleolus?
In a phospholipid, the tail is considered to be:
What is nonpolar/hydrophobic?
The movement of hydrophilic particles from areas of low concentration to areas of high concentration using transport channels. (ATP IS REQUIRED)
Muscle tissue that has no visible striations.
What is smooth muscle tissue?
Tissue type that always has a "top and "bottom".
What is epithelial tissue?
Structure that is continuous with the nuclear envelope. It is studded with ribosomes and synthesizes/modifies proteins.
What is the RER (Rough endoplasmic reticulum)?
Protein type that adheres to one face of the membrane.
What is a peripheral protein?
Cellular process in which particles are moved in/out of cell by creating hollow lipid spheres called vesicles.
What is vesicular transport?
A group of similar cells and their cell products:
What is a tissue?
