Q

Golgi apparatus

A

2 functions:

  1. Store lipids and proteins
  2. If other cells need it, they ship them out

18
Q

What is a Lysosome?

A

It is a suicide organelle, because when they break they release enzymes to either help the cell survive or kill the cell

19
Q

Perioxisome

A

They have enzyme catalase and breaks down hydrogen peroxide to give our body water and oxygen = H20 + Oxygen

20
Q

Microtubules and Microfilaments have 4 functions

A
  1. Cells are made different shapes because of the way they are arranged
  2. push out cytoplasm that they form structures such as cilia
  3. form flagellum
  4. form another organelle called centriole
21
Q

What is the major commodity in cytoplasm?

A

Water and other organelles

22
Q

Epithelium?

A

Is the covering tissue

23
Q

3 types of epithelium?

A
  1. Squamous - 6 - sided, inside cheeks
  2. Columnar - inside small intestines
  3. Cuboidal - found in nephrons, in kidneys, which produce urine
24
Q

Connective Tissue?

A

Bone, cartilage, tendon and ligaments

25
Loose connective tissue?
holds organs together in our abdominal area
26
Collagen and Elastine both are?
Protein fibres
27
The connective tissue has matrix chemical compounds of?
Carbohydrates, fats and proteins
28
Dense Connective tissue means?
Found in ligaments and tendons | Lots of collagen, dense
29
In the matrix of bone you will find?
Calcium and Magnesium > carbonate, phosphate, sulphate
30
What is the Haversian Canal?
Through which blood vessels can pass
31
Haversian Canal inside is...
---> Lucanae ---> canaliculi -->Osteocyte
32
The cells founds in bones are?
Osteocyte - which have blood vessels and nerves
33
Plasma is...
...the matrix in which you find all the different cells of blood

Leucocytes
36
In 1 drop of blood?
1 Erythrocytes to 1 Leucocytes
37
Platelets?
- Are bits and pieces of cells surrounded by cell membrane | - they help in clotting

Hemoglobin carries?
Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide
39
Oxygen and Hemoglobin
Oxyhemoglobin
40
Carbon dioxide (CO2) and Hemoglobin
Oxyminohemoglobin
41
Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Hemoglobin
Carboxyhemoglobin
42
Oxygen is given to cells because?
For Cellular respiration, so we get energy.
43
GLYCOPROTEIN
Carbs and protein
44
