1
New cards

Anatomy

Study of the form and structure of an organism

2
New cards

Physiology

Study of the processes of living organisms, or why they work

3
New cards

Pathophysiology

Study of how disease occurs and the responses of living organisms

4
New cards

cell membrane

Outer protective covering of the cell/ diffusion, osmosis, filtration, are transport mechanisms the cell membrane uses

5
New cards

cytoplasm

semifluid inside the cell but outside the nucleus. Contains 70-90 percent water, proteins, lipids(fat), carbohydrates, minerals, and salts. The site for all the chemical reactions that take place.

6
New cards

organelles

located in the cytoplasm. Help a cell to function

7
New cards

nucleus

mass in the cytoplasm. Separated from the cytoplasm by the nuclear membrane that has pores that allow substances to pass between the nucleus and cytoplasm

8
New cards

nucleolus

located inside the nucleus and important in cell reproduction

9
New cards

chromatin

located in the nucleus and made of DNA and protein.

10
New cards

mitochondria

rod-shaped organelles located throughout the cytoplasm. Called the “furnaces” or “powerhouses” of the cell because they break down carbohydrates, proteins and fats.

11
New cards

Golgi apparatus

stack of membrane layers located in the cytoplasm

12
New cards

Rough endoplasmic reticulum

network of tublar structures in the cytoplasm. contains ribosomes and aids with storage of proteins.

13
New cards

smooth endoplasmic reticulum

network of tubular structures located in cytoplasm. does not contain ribosomes and is not present in the cell. it also assists with cholesterol synthesis, fat metabolism, and detoxification of drugs

14
New cards

Vacuoles

pouchlike structures found through the cytoplasm. have a acuolar membrane. filled w/ watery substance, stored food, or waste products.

15
New cards

Lysosomes

oval/round bodies in cytoplasm. contains digestive enzymes that digest and destroy old cellsm bacteria, and foreign materials.

16
New cards

Centrioles

1 centromes is 2 centrioles. during mitosis the centrioles separate.

17
New cards

ribosomes

sites for protein synthesis

18
New cards

Father of microbiology

Anton van Leeuwenhoek

19
New cards

Heart and lung machine

used during heart surgery to temporarily take over functionsof the heart and lungs/ first used May 1953

20

New cards

gabriel Fahrenheit

physicist, inventor, and scientific instrument maker. most famouse for mercury thermometer (1714) and developing the Fahrenheit temperature scale (1724)

23
New cards

4 functions of the muscles

attach bones to provide movement, provide heat and energy, maintains posture, and protects internal organs

24
New cards

Skeletal muscle tissue

25

26
New cards

Smooth or Visceral tissue

Muscle properties

elasticity,

30
New cards

Cardiac muscle

the cardiac muscle forms the walls of the heart and contracts to circulate blood through the body

31
New cards

Visceral muscle

the visceral muscle also called the smooth muscle, is found in the internal organs of the body, viscera muscles are involuntary mean
