Cellular Structures
This structure is the powerhouse of the cell
What is the Mitochondria
This tissue is commonly referred to as the skin
What is the cutaneous membrane?
This tissue type sends electrical signals throughout the body
What is Nervous tissue?
This organ system works to fight off disease by producing antibodies and white blood cells.
What is the immune system?
This feedback mechanism regulates body temperature.
What is Negative feedback?
This membrane bound structure contains most of the genetic information in the cell
This membrane is typically found lining various organs exposed to external sources, being composed of simple squamous or simple cuboidal epithelial tissue.
What are the Mucous membranes?
The skin is made up of this tissue type
What is epithelial tissue?
These two organ systems provide structural support for the body
What are the Muscular and Skeletal systems?
This feedback mechanism regulates blood clotting
What is positive feedback?
This structure is the packing center for proteins and lipids to be deleivered out of the cell
What is the Golgi Apperatus
This membranes are typically found in joints
What are Synovial Membranes?
This special tissue type is found in the bladder
Transitional epithelium.
This organ system is responsible for the ingestion and absorption of nutrients in the body
What is the Digestive system?
These are established thresholds required for physiological processes to maintain balance
What are homeostasis set points?
This structure transports molecules throughout the cell
What are Vesicles
This membrane, made up of connective tissue, is found lining internal organs
What are Serous Membranes?
This type of connective tissue is found in the hypodermis
What is Loose connective adipose tissue?
These two primary organs of the urinary system filter waste from the blood
What are the kidneys?
After an injury, the release of histamine triggers this response
What is inflamation?
This structure, involved in the cell's digestive system, works to digest and clean out unwanted molecules in the cell body.
What is the Lysosome
This pump in the phospholipid bilayer is responsible for utilizing ATP to transfer large molecules across the concentration gradient
What is a sodium-potassium pump?
This tissue type is striated and multi-nucleated.
Skeletal Tissue
This organ system is responsible for the hormonal levels within the body.
Blood vessels must do this to decrease body temp
What is Dialate?
