What is the definition of a sagital plane?
Separates left and right
What is the definition of a coronal plane?
Separates front and back
What is the definition of a transverse plane?
Separates top and bottom
What axes of rotation does the sagital plane have?
Coronal axis
What axes of rotation does the coronal plane have?
sagittal axis
What axes of rotation does the transverse plane have?
Vertical axis
Superior defintion?
Towards the head
Inferior definition?
Away from the head
Medial definition?
Towards the midline
Lateral definition?
Away from the midline
Anterior definition?
Front of body
Posterior definiton?
Back of body
Proximal definiton?
Closer to point of attachment
Distal definiton?
Further away from point of attachment
Superficial definiton?
Towards body surface/skin
Deep definiton?
Away from surface, further into skin
What is a plasma membrane?
Skin barrier, the outer boundary of a cell that separates its contents from the external environment.
Ribosomes job? (Non membranous)
synethsize proteins, attaches to ER
Cytoskeleton job? (Non membranous)
Maintain shape or cell skeleton, protein framework
Microvilli job? (Non membranous)
Increase surface area and help with absorption
Mitochondria job? (Membranous)
Powerhouse, produce energy for white ells
Nucleus job? (Membranous)
Cells control centre
Endoplasmic reticulum job and what are the two types? what are the differences? (Membranous)
Produce proteins, smooth ER lacks ribosomes (synthesize and concentrate various substances needed by the cell) and rough ER has ribosomes (function = Make the proteins)
Golgi apparatus job?
Process, package and modify proteins
