Primary Components of Human cells
What is the control center of the cell?
The nucleus
Which of the following cell organelles is responsible for transporting materials throughout the cell?
Endoplasmic Reticulum
What is “skin”
Skin is multiple layers that make up a bigget layer that helps with temperature regulation, sensation, excretion, and vitamin D production.
What is the Axial Skeleton?
A skeleton containing 80 bones, including the skull, vertebrae, and ribs.
What are “Skeletal Muscles” responsible for?
body movement; also called voluntary muscle or striated muscle
What Contains many suspended organelles, or cell structures?
Cytoplasm
In which cavity do you find the Liver?
Abdominal Cavity
What is the “Epidermis Layer”?
Outermost layer of the epithelial tissue, covers the external surface of the body.
What is the “Appendicular Skeleton“?
A skeleton with 126 bones, including arms, legs, and pelvic girdle.
What is “Smooth Muscle”?
Found within the walls of hollow organs and blood vessels and in the iris of the eye; also called involuntary muscle
What Protects the nucleus, allowing in only specific materials?
The Nuclear membrane
In which cavity do you find the Bladder?
Pelvic Cavity
What is the “Dermis Layer”?
Thick layer between the epidermis that contains arteries, veins, and nerves.
What is a “Ligament”?
What is ”Cardiac Muscle”?
Found only in the heart; cross-fibered to allow the heart to contract from the top and bottom to pump blood.
What Converts nutrients into energy for use by the cell/body? known as a power plant.
Mitochondria
In which cavity do you find the Brain?
What is the “Subcutaneous Layer”?
Loose, connective tissue composed of adipose tissue and lipocytes
What is the Purpose of “Tendons”?
The tendons join muscles to bones that help in moving extremities. Tendons in the muscular system help avoid muscle injury by absorbing some of the impact muscles take.
Primary functions of all muscles?
Movement, body support, stabilizing joints, and generating heat.
Which component Separates the internal components of the cell from the surrounding environment??
in which cavity do you find the Lungs?
Thoracic Cavity
What are “Sebaceous/Oil Glands”?
Glands that Produce sebum to keep skin and hair soft and prevent bacteria from growing on the skin
What is the purpose of “Connective tissue/Cartilage”?
This tissue maintains, protects, and gives form to other tissues and organs. Cartilage is a part of connective tissue found in the larynx and respiratory tract. It also covers and protects the end of long bones.
What are the main proteins in muscle contraction?
Actin(thin filaments), and Myosin(thick filaments)
