1
Q
A

Blue binds to negatively charged nucleic acids

Pale signifies, euchromatin that theres a lot of expression going on

S is heterochromatic nucleus with small cytoplasm — relatively inactive.

H and E stain

DNA/RNA is blue

Proteins/Amino acids are pink

Hepatocytes

2
Q
A

Artifacts

large lipid droplets

All the components of the cell get pushed off to the periphery. Nucleus, golgi, gets pushed off to the side.

Q
A

Answer #3 : 12-18

You are looking at the inside of a vessel and the vessel wall.

Some cells look like they don’t have a nucleus because the cut is such that the nucleus is not included.

PAS is electric purple

H&E is a dull purple

Tall columnar cells

9
Q

What is Metachromasia

A
10
Q

Increasing Magnification also…

A
11
Q

Can you increase magnification without increasing resolution?

A

Yes, digitally

12
Q

What is TEM?

A
13
Q

Light Microscope vs. TEM

A
14
Q

What is an SEM

A
15
Q

What type of microscopy?

A

Scanning Electron Microscope

16
Q

What type of microscopy and what is it scanning

A

Intestinal Epithelium on an SEM

17
Q
A
18
Q

Lipid Bilayer

A
19
Q
A

O2 and H2O and Steroids

Charged will have difficult time getting through

Just a little water can pass through (without aquaporins)

Amino acids, glucose, Chloride, none of them can pass through.

20
Q

Lipids in the bilayer

A
21
Q

Proteins in the Lipid Bilayer

A
22
Q

How can we attach proteins to the membrane?

A
23
Q

Q

Example of Structural Protein

A
25
Q

Example of Enzymes in the membrane

A
26
Q

Examples of Linkers in the Membrane

A
27
Q

Examples of Recpetors

A
28
Q

Example of protein channels in the membrane

A
29
Q

Example of Protein Pumps in the Membrane

A
30
Q

Movement of Molecules through the membrane

A
31
Q

Facilitated Diffusion vs. Active Diffusion

A
32
Q
A

E — peripheral proteins are only attached to membrane via charged interactions.

Ionic detergents disrupt the membrane.

33
Q

Carbohydrates in the lipid bilayer

A
34
