What is anatomy and physiology?
The side of the golgi apparatus that releases vesicles to be transported to other areas of the cell.
What is the trans face.
What is simple cuboidal epithelium.
The 3 characteristic components of all connective tissue.
What are cells, protein fibers, and ground substance?
All of the tissues present in skin.
What is epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue?
The levels of organization, from least complex to most complex.
The structure manufactures the RNA necessary for the construction of the ribosome.
What is the nucleolus?
Sebaceous glands belong to this category of glands and use this method of secretion.
What is exocrine and holocrine.
The 3 types of loose connective tissue in the body.
What is areolar, adipose, and reticular connective tissue?
Aside from sweat, _______ makes the integumentary system critical for thermal regulation.
What is arteriole vasoconstiction/vasodilation?
The 5 function of human life.
What is responsiveness, movement, metabolism (includes catabolism and anabolism), development (included growth and differentiation), and reproduction?
The number of sister chromatids present after S phase.

The trachea is lined with this typed of epithelium.
Ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium.
This connective tissue is present in intervertebral discs and in the minisci of the knee.
What is fibrocartilage?
The layers of thin skin from superficial to deep.
What is the stratum cornuem, stratum granulosum, Stratum Spinosum, and stratum basale?
All elements of the negative feedback system:
You just ate a cookie. This causes your blood sugar levels to increase. This change in blood sugar level is detected by the beta cells of the pancreas. The pancreas will interpret this change in blood sugar and respond by releasing the hormone insulin in to the bloodstream. Insulin then binds to various tissues in the body and causes them to take in more glucose, thus lowering the amount of sugar in the blood.
What is homeostatic variable - blood sugar, sensor - beta cells, control center - pancreas, effector - insulin, response - lower blood sugar
The sugar coating around the cell that helps the immune system recognize "self".
What is the glycocalyx?
This term refers to epithelium present in blood vessels and serous membranes.
What is endothelium?
_____ gives bone some flexibility, while ______ gives bone firmness and strength.
What are collagen fibers and hydroxyapatite.
Tactile (Meissner's) corpuscle are localized to this structure in the skin and are responible for this sensation.
What are dermal papillae and touch.
