Neuron
Diffusion
Connective Tissue
Functions of the skeletal system

What neuroglial cell connects blood vessels to neurons?
Astrocytes
Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane
Osmosis
Tendons connect what
Muscles to bones

Diarthrotic Joints
Gap between the neuron and the motor end plate
To coordinate the body’s systems by receiving and sending information; maintains homeostasis
Difference between exocytosis and endocytosis
Exocytosis is the secretion (things exit the cell). Endocytosis, things enter the cell
Functions of this tissue: protection, secretion, absorption, excretion and senses
Epithelial Tissue
Clavicles, scapulas, upper arm, lower arm, and carpals are part of what
Pectoral Girdle
where a nerve and muscle fiber come together
Neuromuscular junction
Demyelination occurs and nerves are unable to send or receive signals with this disorder
Multiple sclerosis
What happens in Anaphase?
Chromatids separate and move to opposite poles
What cartilage is found at the end of the joints?
Hyaline Cartilage
4 sutures in the skull
Coronal, lambdoidal, squamosal, and sagittal
Disorder causing muscle weakness and leads to reduced mobility

Responsible for: smell, speech, hearing, and core memory
