Intro to the Body
Anatomical Position
What is standing straight with palms out and knees shoulder-width apart
Functions of Mitochondria
What is to generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell
Epithelial Tissue
What is the outermost and thinnest primary layer of skin
Cardiovascular/Circulatory
What is blood circulation
Epidermis
What is the thin, outer layer of the skin that is visible to the eye and works to provide protection for the body
What direction is Superficial?
What is nearest to the body surface
Functions of the Nucleus
What is to control and regulate the activities of the cell
Collagen
What is the most abundant protein in the human body, found in the bones, muscles, skin, and tendons
Endocrine
What is the production of horomones
First Degree Burns
What is burns in which only the surface layers of epidermis involved (partial thickness)
What direction is Proximal?
What is toward or nearest the trunk, or nearest the point of origin
ATP
What is the energy-carrying molecule
Fibrocartilage
What is the tough, strong tissue found in the ligaments and tendons
Integumentary
What is to protect the body from damage
Basal Cell Carcinoma
What is the most common type of skin cancer, of epidermis, often on upper face, lesions begin as small raised areas that erode in center, bleed, and crust over, and less likely to metastasize than other skin cancer types
What direction is Medial?
Functions of Smooth and Rough ER
What is the production, folding, quality control and despatch of some proteins (rough ER) and lipid manufacture and metabolism and steroid production hormone production (smooth ER)
Cardiac Muscle Tissue
What is called striated involuntary; composes heart wall; ordinarily cannot control contractions
Muscular/Skeletal
What is to provide support, stability, and movement to the body
Kaposi sarcoma
What is associated herpes virus (KSHV), surface, which quickly metastasize internally
Homeostasis
What is any self-regulating process by which biological systems tend to maintain stability while adjusting to conditions that are optimal for survival
Functions of the Golgi Apparatus
What is to help process and package proteins and lipid molecules, especially proteins destined to be exported from the cell
Elastin
What is the protein that exists as fibers in the extracellular spaces of many connective tissues
Lymphatic
What is the production of blood and defense against disease
Synovial fluid and Bursae
What is small fluid-filled sac lined by synovial membrane
