linked by cadherins allows for stretch in heart, skin
gap junctions
things like ions move freely between cells like neurons or some parts of heart
simple diffusion
moves through phospholipid bilayer. Typically small lipid soluble molecules
carrier mediated facilitated diffusion
proteins like lock and key specific molecule binds to and gets let in does not use energy/ATP passive
channel mediated facilitated diffusion
tunnels for ions to go through
osmosis
aquaporin proteins absorb water
primary active transport
ATP driven like sodium potassium pump
secondary active transport
energy created from ATP concentration gradient like sodium glucose transporter sodium moves down its concentration gradient pulling glucose with it up its concentration gradient
phagocytosis
Bulk transport cell eating example white blood cells eat bacteria enclosing it into a phagosome
pinocytosis
Bulk transport cell drinking cell takes sample of ECF into vesicle
Symportter

anti-porter
sends one substance in one out pumps in opposite directions
uni-porter
one thing moving in one direction in or out
receptor mediated endocytosis
bulk transport extracellular substances bond to specific receptors to be pulled into vesicle.
Exocytosis
bulk transport. Cell puts things in vesicle and removes it from cell, examples waste removal, mucus, neurotransmitters
cytoplasm
entire region between plasma membrane and nuclear envelope 70-80% water has organelles
nucleus
phospholipid membrane contains nucleoplasm also contains DNA chromosomes and chromatin
Ribosomes
responsible for protein synthesis the process of combining separate parts, to form a single whole. Can be attached or free floating
mitochondria
"Power house of cell" Makes APT uses glucose and oxygen produces CO2 as waste . Has double membrane has its own ribosomes and DNA
peroxisome
phospholipid bi-layer oxidation reactions releasing hydrogen peroxide involved in detoxification often found in liver and kidneys
vesicle
phospholipid bi-layer
endomembrane system
interconnected membranous sacs and tubules main part is the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)
rough ER (rough endoplasmic reticulum) rough ER
has ribosomes attached to it job is to modify proteins ribosomes make the proteins and send them to the rough ER to be modified
smooth ER (smooth endoplasmic reticulum)
has no ribosomes synthesizes lipids, steroid hormones, carbohydrates. Some detoxification, muscle cells store calcium molecules in sarcoplasmic reticulum
endomembrane system Golgi apparatus
sort, tag and distribute lipids and proteins receive them from vesicles where they sort, tag and then distribute through vesicles
lysosomes
destroy pathogens and waste with hydrolytic enzymes (enzymes that can perform hydrolysis) involved in phagocytosis and endocytosis
cytoskeleton
network of protein fibers that help maintain shape of cell, secure organelles, allow movement of vesicles and cytoplasm
extracellular matrix
holds cells together to form tissues
Exocrine glands
exocrine glands use ducts to release substances onto body surfaces or into internal cavities can be unicellular or multi cellular
Endocrine Glands
endocrine glands are ductless and release hormones directly into the bloodstream secrete by exocytosis
epithelial tissue roles
covering and lining like skin, digestive tract. Glands, such as Endocrine, Exocrine glands
epithelial tissue main functions
Thick protection, Thin absorption, filtration, excretion, secretion, and sensory reception.
epithelial tissue unique functions
polarity the 2 ends are different apical surface (top) may have microvilli or cilia. Has a basement membrane basal lamina + reticular lamina. Avascular no blood vessels but innervated does have nerve endings (sensor receptors) . It is highly regenerative
microvilli vs cilia
microvilli increase surface area increased absorption. Cilia involved in movement propel substances
basement membrane basal lamina + reticular lamina
basal lamina bunch of glycoproteins and collagen fibers act as a filter . Reticular lamina collagen fiber of connective tissue underneath helps with support
types of epithelial tissue
Simple squamous, simple cuboidal , simple columnar, stratified squamous cells , pseudostratified columnar , transitional epithelium
Simple squamous functions
filtration through diffusion can be found in lungs, kidneys , lining of heart, forms a lot of the serous membranes. Secrete serous fluid in the serous membranes
simple cuboidal function
secretion and absorption often found in kidney tubules, ducts and secretory portion of small glands
simple columnar function
absorption, secretion of mucus, enzymes and other substances, nonciliated type often found in the digestive tract with microvilli to increase absorption
pseudostratified columnar
found in trachea , most of upper respiratory tract ciliated secrets mucous
stratified squamous cells
protects found in areas subject to abrasion nonkeratinized type found in moist linings like mouth stomach etc keratinized found in epidermis of skin a dry membrane
transitional epithelium
unique to urinary system lines ureters, bladder, urethrae urethra can stretch . Resembles both stratified squamous with cuboidal
glands
type of epithelial tissue a gland is one or more cells that make AND secrete hormones
how do Exocrine glands secrete merocrine glands
merocrine glands secrete through exocytosis like sweat glands and salvatory glands
how do Exocrine glands secrete holocrine glands
holocrine glands accumulate products until they blow up
types of connective tissue
connective tissue proper can be loose or dense, cartilage, bone, blood
connective tissue major functions
binding and supporting, protecting, insulating, storing reserve fuel, transporting substances
what do all connective tissue have in common/unique features
all connective tissue arise from mesenchyme. Degrees of vascularity cartilage has no vascularity , dense irregular connective tissue is poorly vascularized areolar is highly vascularized. Non living extracellular matrix
connective tissue Non living extracellular matrix
Non living extracellular matrix has interstitial fluid between cells very dense in cell adhesion proteins which act as tissue glue. Contains 3 types of fibers collagen fiber, elastic fiber, reticular fiber.
connect tissue cells
if it ends it blasts it is an immature cell that secretes ground substance and fibers are mitotic divide creating more. Cyte are mature cells less active helps to maintain matrix that has already been created
loose connective tissue areolar
areolar soft connective tissue gel matrix has all 3 fiber types wraps and cushions organs,. It is also under the skin, phagocytizes bacteria plays a role in inflammation
loose connective tissue adipose
adipose fat tissue provides reserve food source, insulates from heat loss under skin in the hypodermis helps prevent heat loss. Protects organs
loose connective tissue reticular
tissue of the lymph node system forms a soft external skeleton that support other cell types like white blood cells, mast cells, and macrophages
dense regular connective tissue proper
dense regular lots of collagen fibers a few elastic fibers oriented in same direction make up tendons muscle to bones and ligaments bones to bones. Good at resistance to stress in one direction
dense irregular connective tissue proper
dense irregular are irregularly arranged collagen fibers some elastic fibers withstand tension in multiple directions found in capsules of joint especially ones with lots of movement like shoulder capsule. Also found in dermis and in submucosa
dense regular connective tissue proper elastic
elastic connective tissue contain lots of elastic fibers allows tissue to recoil after stretching mainly found in the walls of our arteries like the aorta of our heart
connective tissue cartilage Hyaline
Hyaline resists compressive stress forms costal cartilage of ribs in joint cavities so bones dont rub against bones
connective tissue elastic cartilage
elastic cartilage made of more elastic fibers maintains shape while maintaining flexibility found in ear and epiglottis
Connective tissue Fiber cartilage
Fiber cartilage best at resisting compressive shock in disk of knees, in disk of spine vertebrae, pubic synthesis
Connective tissue bone
bone many collagen fibers, osteocytes very well vassalized hard calcified supports and protects provides levers for muscles, stores calcium and other minerals is the site for blood cell formation
connective tissue blood
red in white blood cells in fluid matrix (plasma) transports respiratory gasses, waste, nutrients.
muscle tissue characeristics
highly vascularized, responsible for most movement, and it has myofilaments type of fiber only in muscle cells
