Q

Which type of cell?

This cell carries the respiratory gases, oxygen and carbon dioxide. Its concave disc shape provides extra surface area for the uptake of respiratory gases. This steamlined shape also allows the cell to flow easily through the bloodstream. So much oxygen-carrying pigment is packed in erythrocytes that all other organelles have been shed to make room.

A

Erythrocyte (red blood cell)

Note: they also have lots of extracellular space

Q

Which type of cell?

Some of these cells are gland cells, with an abundant rough ER, Golgi apparatus, and secretory granules

25
Which type of cell? The elongated shape of this cell extends along the cablelike fibers that it secretes. It also has an abundant rough ER and a large Golgi apparatus to make and secrete the protein components of these fibers.
Fibroblast
26
Structure: Rodlike, double-membrane structures; inner membrane folded into projections called cristae
Mitochondira: Site of ATP synthesis; powerhouse of the cell
27
This theory of cellular aging proposes that free radicals are primarlily the by-products of normal cellular metabolism, although they also form in rsponse to external insults, such as radiation and chemical pollutants. **Free radicals build up and progressively damage the essential cell molecules. **
Free radical theory
28
Orientation and Directional term: Closer to the origin of the body part or the point of attachment of a limg to the body trunk
Proximal
29
Structure: Fine filaments of the contractile protein actin
Microfilaments: involved in muscle contraction and other types of intracellular movement; help form the cell's cytoskeleton
30
Anatomical position and regional term: Cephalic, what does it stand for and what 5 features does it include?
Head; Frontal (forehead), orbital (eyes), Nasal (nose), Oral (mouth), Mental (chin)
31
(8)
Hypogastric (pubic) region
32
Serosae associated with the abdominal viscera
Peritoneum
33
The thoracic cavity has three parts:
(a) two lateral parts, each containing a lung surrounded by a **pleural cavity** and (b) a central band of organs called the **mediastinum. **
34
The Ventral Body Cavity has two main divisions:
(1) a **superior thoracic cavity** surounded by the ribs and the muslces of the chest wall and (2) an inferior **abdominopelvic cavity** surrounded by the abdominal walls and pelvic girdle
35
(7)
Right iliac (ingunial) region
36
Frontal Plane
37
Which cells store nutrients? What creates the sherical shape?
Fat cells: the shape is produced by a large lipid droplet in its cytoplasm
38
Structure: Membrane system encolosing a cavity, the cisterna, and coiling through the cytoplasm; externally studded with ribosomes

45
Structure: A stack of smooth membrane sacs close to the nucleus
