The study of the functions of organisms

What is physiology?

100

The two layers of epithelial tissue.

What are the apical and basal surfaces?

100

This are the primary functions of connective tissue

What is support body tissues, transmit forces, and act as fillers?

100

These are the three types of muscle tissue

What are skeletal, cardiac, and smooth
100

These cells serve as lines of communication between body parts and glial cells

What are neurons?
200

The stable state of the internal environment

What is homeostasis

200
Common locations of simple squamous epithelium

What are blood vessel walls and air sacs in the lungs?

200

The mechanical properties of connective tissue depend on the type and quantity depend on this.

What is the extracellular matrix?
200
Contractions are produced by the interaction of these two proteins 
What are actin and myosin?
200

These are the three basic parts of a neuron

What are cell bodies, dendrites, and axons?
300

The third level of organization on your slides. (Smallest is cell)

What is an organ?
300

The functions of cuboidal epithelium

What are secretion and absorption?

300

These are the six types of connective tissue.

What is loose, fibrous, cartilage, bone, adipose, and blood

300

The cells within cardiac muscle are short and branched, and each are connected to neighboring cells with this.

What are intercalated disks?

300

This mechanism intensifies or adds to the change in internal or external environment

What is positive feedback?

400

Gap junctions allow these to flow through one cell to another

What are ions and small molecules?

400
The new, undifferentiated cells that are produced in the basal layer of skin.

What are stem cells?

400

This is the precursor to bone during embryonic development

What is cartilage

400

The cells of this type of muscle are small and spindle shaped, with the actin and myosin molecules arranged loosely

What is smooth muscle?

400

This is a 24 hour cycle that correlates with regular environment changes (hint: sleep)

What is the circadian rhythm?

500

Space between cells with buttonlike spots or belts that weld cells together

What are anchoring junctions?

500

This kind of epithelia is not involved in secretion or absorption

What is stratified squamous epithelium?
500

This cell type makes up mature bone, and is embedded in an ECM with collagen fibers and glycoproteins

What are osteocytes?

500

Cells of this type of muscle are stabilized by anchoring junctions and gap junctions, which allows the muscle to contract in all directions

What is cardiac muscle?

500

This is when a set point is changed artificially or in a laboratory setting.

What is acclimation?
