Inro to A & P
Standing upright, facing forward and feet are shoulder-width apart, parallel and flat on the floor
Anatomical Position
Inorganic molecules lack this element
Carbon
Gel-like substance that fills the entire cell and holds all membrane-bound organelles in place
Cytoplasm
Division of cytoplasm
Cytokinesis
The study of tissues
Histology
Ability of the body to maintain a relatively stable, internal environment despite continuous changes in the external environment
Homeostasis
Enzyme that catalyzes phosphorylation of ADP - ATP cycle
ATP Synthase
Responsible for generating majority of cell’s energy in the form of ATP via cellular respiration
Mitochondria
Formation of 2 identical daughter cells
Telophase
Lacking a blood supply (blood vessels)
Avascular
Fundamental concept stating function (physiology) is directly related to its structure (anatomy)
Principle of Complementarity
Salad dressing is an example of this type of heterogenous mixture
Suspension
Site of lipid synthesis and steroid production
Smooth ER
Sister chromatids are pulled toward opposite poles of the cell and spindle fibers shorten
Anaphase
This type of tissue looks layered and all cells touch the basement membrane
Pseudostratified
Body temperature, blood glucose and BP are all regulated by this homeostatic mechanism
Negative feedback loops
Type of reaction that requires energy to form complex molecules from simpler ones
Anabolic
Spherical vesicle containing potent hydrolytic enzymes that break down waste and cellular debris
Lysosomes
The final part of interphase before Mitosis begins
G2
Gland responsible for secreting sebum
Sebaceous (oil)
Located ~2 inches from the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) along a line from the navel to the ASIS
McBurney's Point
Type of biochemical reaction that gains an electron (e-)
Reduction (Redox)
Modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids in preparation for transport to different parts of the cell
Golgi Apparatus (Complex)
After DNA is copied in S phase (interphase), there are this # of chromosomes
92 chromosomes
This dermal layer interdigitates with the epidermis to form fingerprints
Papillary layer
