Study of the structures of the human body that can be seen with the naked eye, and of what substances they are made.
What is Anatomy
100
Small organ.
What is organelle
100
A process of cell reproduction in human tissues that occurs when the cell divides into two identical cells daughter cells.
What is mitosis
100
A collection of similar cells that perform a particular function.
What is tissue
100
Structures composed of specialized tissues designed to perform a specific functions in plants and animals.
What is organs
200
The study of the functions and activities performed by the body structures.
What is Physiology
200
Dense active protoplasm found in the center of a cell...genetic control center.
What is nucleus
200
The process of "building up" larger molecules from smaller ones. During this process, the body stores water, food, and oxygen for the time when these substances will be needed for cell growth and repair.
What is anabolism
200
Supports. protects, and binds together other tissues of the body. Example; bone, cartilage, ligaments, tendons, fascia and fat.
What is connective tissue
200
Circulates the blood.
What is heart
300
Study of the tiny structures found in living tissue.
What is histology
300
Watery fluid containing the food material necessary for cell growth, reproduction, and self-repair.
What is cytoplasm
300
Complex compounds within the cells are "broken down" into smaller ones. This process releases energy that is stored by special molecules to be used in muscle contractions, body secretions, or heat production.
What is catabolism
300
Gives smoothness and contour of the body.
What is adipose tissue
300
Serves as a protective covering for the body and helps in temperature regulation, consists of skin, accessory organs such as oil and sweat glands, sensory receptors, hair, and nails
What is integumentary system
400
The basic unit of all living things, from bacteria plants to animals to human begins. Without cells, life does not exist.
What is cells
400
Part of the cell that encloses the protoplasm and permits soluble substance to enter and leave.
What is cell membrane
400
Chemical process taking place in living organisms whereby the cells are nourished and carry out their activities.
What is metabolism
400
Protective covering on the body surfaces. Examples; skin, mucous membranes, the lining of the heart, digestive and respiratory organs, and the glands.
What is epithelial tissue
400
Forms the physical foundation of the body. Provides; shape and forms for our bodies in addition to supporting, protecting, allowing bodily movement, producing blood for the body, and storing minerals such as calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate.
What is skeletal system
500
Colorless, jellylike substance in which food elements such as proteins, fats, carbohydrates, mineral salts, and water are present.
What is protoplasm
500
Fluid that contains proteins, and very important acid known as DNA.
What is nucleoplasm
500
Carries messages to and from the brain and controls and coordinates all bodily functions.
What is nerve tissue
500
Study of the anatomy, structure, and function of the bones.
