Body Regions
Much larger than cilia
Flagella
Primary function is protection. Includes skin and appendages
Integumentary System
Consists of the heart, arteries, veins, and capillaries. Primary function is transportation.
Cardiovascular
What are the four types of tissues?
Epithelial, connective, nervous, muscle
Cilia
Head, neck, torso/trunk
Axial
Consists of bones, joints, cartilage and ligaments.
Skeletal
Consists of lymph nodes, lymphatic vessels, and specialized lymphatic organs. Primary function is movement.
Lymphatic System
Classified by shape and arrangement. Forms continuous sheets with no blood vessels.
Epithelial Tissue
Controls every organelle in the cytoplasm; also processes of cell reproduction.
Nucleus
Upper and lower extremities
Appendicular
Consists of skeletal (voluntary), smooth (involuntary), and cardiac types.
Muscular
Composed of nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs. Primary function is air movement.
Respiratory system
The seven types of this tissue are the most abundant and widely distributed. Found in skin, membranes, muscles, bones, nerves and internal organs.
Connective tissue
Consists of tiny, flattened sacs stacked on one another near the nucleus
Golgi Apparatus
Generalized decrease in size or a wasting away of body organs and tissues that affects the structure and functions of body areas
Atrophy
Consists of brain, spinal cord, and nerves. Main functions are bodily communication and control.
Nervous
Organs separated into primary and secondary. Ensures proper absorption of nutrient.
Digestive
The three types are skeletal, cardiac, and smooth.
Muscle tissue
System of membranes forming a network of connecting sacs and canals that wind back and forth through a cell’s cytoplasm.
Endoplasmic reticulum
Short, rod like structures
Chromosomes
Consists of numerous glands. Glands secrete hormones for communication, integration, and control.
Endocrine
Includes kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. Cleans blood of waste products.
Urinary system
Characterized by cells and processes. Primary function is communication and control.
Nervous tissue
Threadlike structures made of proteins and hereditary material called DNA.
Chromatin
