Three layers of epithelial tissues

apical, lateral, basal

100

What causes membrane potentials?

Membrane potentials are the results of a difference in the concentration of ions inside and outside the cell, as well as the permeability of the cell membrane.

100

Name the five cardinal signs of inflammation

Rubor, Calor, Dolor, Tumor, Funtio laesa

100

Which lymphoma presents with waldeyer's rings?

Non Hodgkins lymphoma

100

Which leukemia is most common in young children?

ALL

200

What types of connective tissue are supportive connective tissue?

Cartilage and Bone

200

Give an example of cotransport/symport system.

In the intestine, the absorption of glucose and amino acids is coupled with sodium transport.

200

Describe the vascular phase of acute inflammation.

Momentary vasoconstriction -> rapid vasodilation

Results in rubor and calor

Increases vascular permeability leading to dolor and tumor and funtio laesa.

localization of injury

200

What type of cells do the lymphomas generally affect?

T-Cells and B-Cells.

Hodgkins and Non-Hodgkins are considered B-Cell Lymphomas.

200

What is the difference between Acute and Chronic Leukemia?

chronic leukemia involves abnormal proliferation of well differentiated cells while acute deals with immature, undifferentiated blast cells.

300

Name the four recognized types of connective tissue proper.

Loose (areolar), adipose, reticular, and dense connective tissue

300

What kind of transport is the Na+/K+ ATPase pump?

Primary Active Transport
300

Describe the cellular phase of acute inflammation.

Delivery of leukocytes, mainly neutrophils, to injury site.

1) adhesion and margination

2) transmigration

3) chemotaxis

4) activation and phagocytosis

300

Which lymphoma is multicentric and non-contiguous?

Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma

300

What kind of leukemia interferes with maturation of all blood cells, including granulocytes, erythrocytes, and thrombocytes?

Myelogenous (Myeloid)

400

What makes skeletal and cardiac muscles striated?

There are actin and myosin filaments arranged in large parallel arrays in bundles.
400

What is the different between passive and active transport?

Active: Low concentration to high concentration

Passive: high concentration to low concentration

400

Describe Granuloma formation

Associated with foreign bodies such as splinter in body. Starts as a small 1-2mm lesion with a massing of macrophages surrounded by other lymphocytes.

400

This Lymphoma peaks in 2 groups, 15-25 and 55-75

Hodgkins lymphoma

400

What causes bone pain in leukemia(s)? Which type of leukemia is bone pain most associated with?

Cancerous immature blast cells crowd the bones, causing pain. Most closely associated with Acute leukemias

500

At what specialized structures does communication between neurons and effector organs occur at?

synapses
500

What is the difference between Endocytosis and exocytosis?

endocytosis: uptake or incorporation of substances into the cell by engulfing it in cell membrane in order to form a membrane-bound vesicle.

exocytosis: cellular vesicle fuses to cell membrane in order to release contents outside of the cell.

500

Four types of inflammatory mediators

1) cell derived

2) plasma

3) Preformed mediators

4) newly synthesized

500

True or False: Hodgkin Lymphoma is characterized by Bence-Jones cells.

False.
