Intro Definitions
The ''cutting open" of the body and the physical relationships among body parts
What is Anatomy?
Their monomers are known as monosaccharides
What are Carbohydrates?
The movement of water that can create hypotonic, hypertonic, and isotonic solutions
Specialized cells that produce extracellular matrix proteins such as fibronectin and collagen
What are Fibroblasts?
Exocrine gland commonly associated with hair and the production of sebum
What is a Sebaceous Gland?
The study of the function and how living organisms perform their vital functions
What is Physiology?
Organic compound used for long term storage (fat)
What are Lipids?
A membrane where lipids and water can move freely while other molecules can not
What is a Semi-permeable membrane?
Type of connective tissue that is composed of Areolar tissue, Adipose tissue, and Reticular tissue
What is Loose Connective tissue?
Middle layer of a hair follicle that contains hard keratin
What is the Cortex?
The examination of large structural features typically visible to the unaided eye commonly known as "gross anatomy".
What is Macroscopic Anatomy?
Built by repeating monomer units known as amino acids and held together by peptide bonds
What are Proteins?
This process doesn't require ATP and molecules move from a high to low concentration
What is Passive Transport?
Type of tissue that is found in tendons and ligaments that interconnect bones or stabilize the positions of internal organs
What is Dense regular connective tissue?
What is the Nail Matrix?
The examination of structures that can't be seen without magnification commonly known as "Histology"
What is Microscopic Anatomy?
A molecule with low molecular weight that can combine with others of the same kind to form a chemical compound known as a polymer
What is a monomer?
This process requires ATP and molecules move from a low to high concentration
What is Active Transport?
Type of connective tissue that is formed as interstitial fluid drains into lymphatic vessels taught return tissue fluid to venous blood
What is Lymph?
The amount of time taken place during the catagen phase in hair
What is 10 days?
The position where your feet are on the ground, hands are at your side, shoulders are down, and palms are facing forward
What is the Anatomical position?
This structure can be composed of a alpha helix or a beta sheet
Higher temperature and more saturation can have what effect
What is an increase in membrane fluidity?
Type of cartilage that has a high flexibility and low strength located at the auricle of the external ear
What is Elastic Cartilage?
Also known as "sudoriferous" and a key component of thermoregulation throughout the body
What are Sweat Glands?
