Eeny
Carries messages to and from brain
Controls & coordinates all bodily functions
Composed of special cells (neurons) which make up nerves, brain, and spinal cord
What are nerve tissues?
The oval, bony case that protects brain
What is the cranium?
(Examples: blood, lymph)
What are liquid tissues?
Basic unit of all living things
Responsible for carrying on all life processes
Without these, life would not exist.
What are cells?
Contracts and moves various parts of body
What are muscular tissues?
( Examples: bone, cartilage, ligaments, fat)
What are connective tissues?
Dividing into two identical cells called daughter cells
What is mitosis?
The two parts of the skull.
What are the cranium and the facial skeleton?
Anabolism & Catabolism are carried out simultaneously & ____________within the cells

hindmost bone, below parietal bones, forms back of skull above nape
What is the occipital bone?
protoplasm
Colorless
What is protoplasm?
Two bones that form sides of head in ear region
What are the temporal bones?
Dense, active protoplasm found in center of cell
Plays part in cell reproduction & metabolism
What is the nucleus?
Forms the forehead
What is the frontal bone?
Encloses protoplasm
Permits soluble substances to enter & leave cell
What is the cell membrane?
Phase of metabolism
Involves breaking down of complex compounds within the cells into smaller ones
Releases energy
Stored by special molecules to be used in muscle contractions, body secretions, or heat production
What is catabolism?
All the protoplasm except the nucleus
Watery fluid that contains food material necessary for growth, reproduction, & self repair
What is cytoplasm?
Two bones that form bridge of nose.
What are the nasal bones?
(Examples: skin, mucous membranes, lining of heart, glands)

Two small, thin bones located at front inner wall of orbits (eye sockets)
What are the zygomatic or malar bones?
Two bones of the upper jaw.
What are the maxillae?
Constructive metabolism
Process of building up larger molecules from smaller ones
Body stores water, food, & oxygen for time when these are needed for cell growth and repair
What is anabolism?
Lower jawbone, largest and strongest bone of face
What is the mandible?
