25
what are the three types of muscle tissue
- Skeletal
- smooth

27
what is apoptosis
programmed / planned cell death
28
what is necrosis
unplanned cell death (trauma, toxins and hypoxia)
29
what is the difference between apoptosis and necrosis
apoptosis is planned cell death necrosis is unplanned cell death due to problems caused to body
30
what are pluripotent stem cells
in later embryonic development cells
- many potential fates
31
what are multipoint stem cells
- adult stem cells
- many potential fates but constricted
32
what are totipotent stem cells
- early cells
- potential to develop into any cell type
33
distinguish between the three types of stem cells
- totipotent
- pluripotent
- multippotent
34
what is the anatomy and function of smooth muscle
smooth non striated thick and thin filaments

carry information from one part of body to another down axons
38
what is the anatomy and function of glial cells
support neuron function
39
what is the purpose of Body cavities
allow for separation of biological contents and functions between spaces
- specialization
40
what does the cranial cavity contain
brain and spinal cord
41
what does the thoracic cavity contain
plural cavity/sac = lungs
pericardial cavity/sac = heart
42
what does the abdominal cavity contain
abdominal = digestive organs
pelvic = digestive and reproductive organs
43
what does the extracellular compartment contain

- plasma (fluid in blood)
44
what does the intracellular fluid compartment contain
all fluid within cells
45
what are the main functions of the cell membrane
- physical isolation (separation of ICF from EFC)
- Regulation of exchange of contents with the environment (control movement of ions in/out of cell)
- communication between the cell and it's environment
(membrane proteins allow the cell to respond to external changes)
- structural support (MP attach to cytoskeleton intracellular and create junctions between neighboring cells and the EC matrix)
46
what's the cell membrane composed of
lipids and proteins and small amount of carbohydrates
47
what three lipid types are in the cell membrane (create hydrophobic layer)
- phospholipids (primary)
- cholesterol
- sphingolipids
48
what are the three membrane proteins
- integral proteins (extend across cell membrane)
- peripheral proteins (non-covalently attached to integral proteins or heads of phospholipids)
- lipid-anchored proteins (inserted in bilayer, covalently bound to lipids in cell membrane)
49
what are the two membrane carbohydrates and what to they attach to
- glycoproteins -> proteins
- glycolipids -> lipids
50
what is the function of kinesin
assist in movement of vesicles and organelles along microtubules
51
what is the function of
assist in movement of vesicles and organelles along microtubules
52
what are the two components of the ECM
- proteoglycans
- insoluble protein fibers
53
what is the function of proteoglycans
- proteins bound to polysaccharides
54
what is the function off insoluble protein fibers
- provide strength and anchor the cell to the matrix by attaching to cytoskeleton proteins
(collagen, fibronectin, laminin, elastin)
55
what are the roles of proteins in Occluding junctions (TIGHT)
- Claudins/occludins: partially fuse cell membranes
- restrict moment of materials between cells
56
what are the roles of proteins in anchoring junctions (6)
- Cadherin: lock together on extracellular surface
- Adherens: anchor one cell to another and attach actin fibers inside each cell
- Desmosomes (strongest): anchor one cell to another and attach intermediate filaments inside each cell
- Integrin: grab matrix proteins
- Hemidesmosomes: connect ECM to intermediate filaments inside cell
- Focal Adhesions: connect ECM to actin fibers inside cell
57
what are exocrine glands
lumen forms in gland creating duct that provides passage for secretions to move to surface of epithelium
(Release outside body)
58
what are endocrine glands
lose connecting bridge to cells allowing their secretion to go directly into blood (release into body)
59
what are disadvantages of body compartments
- barriers between areas
- tissue transport and communication issues (cells have developed mechanisms to solve this)
