Monocytes
It is NOT TRUE that defensins
cooperate with myeloperoxidase in the chlorination of bacterial proteins
Which leukocyte contains three different types of cytoplasmic granules?
Neutrophils
Functions of eosinophils DO NOT include
Neutralization of mediators produced by mast cells
In the blood platelet, granulomere DOES NOT contain
Tubules storing calcium ions
Elasticity of elastic fibers results from
Expansion of the cross-links between elastin molecules
In proteoglycan aggregates, proteoglycan molecules are connected by
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs)
It is NOT TRUE that procollagen molecules
Can aggregate with other procollagen molecules
Indicate a common feature of fibroblasts and plasma cells
Well developed RER
In the smooth muscle cell, binding of myosin to actin requires
Phosphorylation of myosin
Which cells can spontaneously (without external signal) depolarize their cell membrane?
Interstitial cells of canal
FIlaments which protect sarcomere from too excessive stretching are built of:
Desmin
In the skeletal muscle fiber, voltage-sensitive protein:
Is located in thin myofilament and pulls tropomyosin away from actin
The quadriceps muscle of 100 meter world record holder is built mostly of
White muscle fibers
In nerve cells, RER, free ribosomes and dictusomes of the Golgi apparatus are:
Poorly developed because nerve cells are not capable of proliferation and differentiation
Neurosecretory cells release peptide hormones at axon terminals. What makes it possible?
Kinesin
Suggest the correct arrangement of structures in myelinated nerve fiber (inside-out)
Axon - myelin sheath - layer of Schwann cell cytoplasm - basal lamina
Which cells have unusual apical cell membrane built of thick protein plates (plaques) interconnected by flexible areas of normal cell membrane?
Dome-shaped cells of urothelium
In stratified epithelia, dividing cells are located
In the basal layers
In the microvillus, actin filaments are connected to the cell membrane by
myosin
It is NOT TRUE that stereocilia
Contain 9 peripheral doublets and 2 central microtubules
Ciliated epithelium can transport objects along its surface because
Bending (active phase) is unidirectional but slightly delayed in successive cilia
