Cell Metabolism
A chemical reaction that builds complex substances from simpler substances
Anabolism
Mitochondria
Classifications of epithelial tissue
squamous, cuboidal and columnar
The layers of the skin from the outermost layer to the innermost layer
Epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous layer
Lymphocytes that are responsible for specific or adaptive immunity
T and B cells
The primary source of energy
Glucose
Phospholipids and proteins
Blood, bone, cartilage and adipose tissue
Types of connective tissue
Blood vessels dilate and sweat glands become more active in response to this temperature change
Increased temperature (also accept thermoregulation)
These are protective proteins
Complements and interferons
Biochemical process that makes glucose from protein
Gluconeogenesis
Diffusion
The movement of a substance from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
Three serous membranes
Pleura (thoracic cavity), pericardium (thoracic cavity and heart) and peritoneum (abdominal cavity)
Lies on top of the dermis and provides the epithelium with cells
The process of cell-mediated immunity
1. T-cells originate in bone marrow and mature in the thymus. 2. Antigen presentation 3. T-cell activation 4. Production of a clone
Describe the process of aerobic catabolism
Glucose is broken down into pyruvic acid in the cytoplasm, moves to the mitochondria where enzymes break it down completely into CO2 and water, releasing many ATP
Isotonic, Hypotonic and Hypertonic solutions
isotonic solution has the same concentration as intracellular fluid, hypotonic has a low concentration to intracellular (causes hemolysis), and hypertonic has a higher concentration to intracellular fluid (causes shrinking)
Smooth, skeletal and cardiac are classifications of this type of tissue
Muscle tissue
Sebaceous, apocrine, eccrine, sudoriferous and ceruminous are types of
Glands
Macrophage, helper T-cells, B-cells, plasma cells, and memory B cells are involved in this process
Antibody-mediated Immunity
DNA, RNA, tRNA and mRNA work together in this process
Protein synthesis
Rough and Smooth refer to
The Golgi apparatus
Basic anatomy of a neuron and functions
Dendrites, cell body and axon
These are classifications of burns
First degree (superficial), second degree (partial thickness) and third degree (full thickness)
These participate in innate immunity (first and second line of defense)
Mechanical and chemical barriers, reflexes, phagocytes, protective proteins, natural killer cells, inflammation and pyrexia
