Anatomical Terms
A cut along this plane would split the body into left and right halves
Saggital Plane
This type of cell junction directly connects the cytoplasm of two cells
Gap junctions
Blood and lymph are this type of connective tissue
Fluid connective tissues
This is the waterproofing protein that fills the cells in the upper layers of the epidermis
Keratin
This type of bone growth forms flat bones such as those in the skull
Intramembranous ossification
The brain is ________ to the skull
Deep
This type of cell junction anchors the epithelium to the basement membrane
Hemidesmosomes
This type of cell lives within a lacuna in the bone matrix
Osteocyte
This is the deepest layer of epidermal cells that are attached to the basement membrane
Stratum basale
The knee joint is an example of this type of freely movable joint that contains synovial fluid for lubrication
Synovial joint
The arms are _________ to the chest
Lateral
This type of epithelial tissue is mostly found lining urinary tract organs like the bladder
Transitional epithelium
This type of connective tissue makes up tendons and ligaments
Dense regular connective tissue
These glands secrete sebum to lubricate and protect the skin and hair
Sebaceous glands
The primary ossification center forms here during endochondral ossification
Diaphysis
The triceps muscle is located __________ to the biceps muscle in anatomical position
Posterior
This tissue may appear to have multiple layers, but all cells are anchored to the basement membrane. The cells also have specialized projections growing on the apical surface
Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium
All connective tissues differentiate from this type of embryonic tissue
Mesenchyme
Goosebumps are caused by a contraction of this muscle
Arrector pili
The body releases this hormone when blood calcium levels are elevated
Calcitonin
This plane divides the body along the superior-inferior axis
Transverse Plane
In this type of secretion, the apical sides of glandular cells go through cycles of secretion via break down and regrowth
Apocrine secretion
The protein fiber that gives connective tissues the ability to stretch and recoil is called
Elastic
This superficial layer of the dermis is comprised of areolar tissue
Papillary layer
This structure lines the internal surfaces of bone, including the medullary cavity and contains cells important for bone growth and repair
Endosteum
