A particle that is composed of at least two atoms.

Tissues are composed of _____.

Living things take in molecules from the environment and chemically change them into molecules that form their own structures, control their physiology, or provide them with energy.

Study of structural changes caused by disease

Is feeling structure with the fingertips, such as palpating a swollen lymph node or taking a pulse.

A layer of epidermis that Provides strength and flexibility to the skin.

Study of the cell

It is made up of proteins and lipids

It is the largest and most prominent of a cell’s organelles, it stores most of the genetic instructions and is therefore essential in cells that will reproduce themselves.

Used for routine spot test sampling and drop transfers or whenever a handy disposable mixing aid is required.

Study of function

Organs are composed of _______.

Made up of both RNA and protein. A site of protein synthesis.

It is enclosed in a plasma membrane composed of lipids and proteins. most cell have one nucleus, an organelle that contains its DNA

Organ systems are composed of ______.

Used to measure the rate of respiration of a living organism by measuring its rate of exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide

The Red bloods cells are also known as…

Four classes of tissues 1. Epithelial tissue 2. Connective tissue 3. Nervous tissue 3. Cartilage tissue 5. Muscular tissue

Found in the heart, these striated cells are shorter, branched, and usually have a single nucleus. They contract involuntarily to pump blood.

Principal organs: Brain, spinal cord, nerves, ganglia Principal functions: Rapid internal communication and coordination m, sensation.

The smallest units of an organism that carry out all basic function of life.

Used for suction of liquid in and out of the device

Used for capillary blood samplin

These cells are responsible for bone formation. They produce the bone matrix and are involved in the mineralization process.

A layer of Epidermis that is the Deepest layer where new skin cells are generated.

Principal Organs: Teeth, tongue, salivary glands, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestines, liver, gallbladder, pancreas.

A form of cell division where the cell splits into two each identical to the original cell. it create copies of themselves for growth and repair.

All cells come from pre-existing cells through cell division

Cell is a self replicating structure

Used for blood collection. Available in plain or anti - Cingular that keeps blood from clotting

The organism is composed of ______ _____.

It is proposed by Matthias Schleiden and Theodore Schwann

Organelles are composed of m______.

Molecules are composed of _____.

A network of protein fibers within the cytoplasm that provides structural support, maintains the cell shape, and facilitates cell movement, division, and intercellular transport.

also known as thrombocytes, are small, disc-shaped cell fragments in the blood that play a crucial role in blood clotting. When a blood vessel is injured, platelets quickly move to the site of the damage, where they adhere to the exposed tissue and each other, forming a temporary "platelet plug.”

Principal organs: Skin, hair, nails, cutaneous glands. Principal functions: Protection, water retention, thermoregulation, Vitamin D, Synthesis, cutaneous sensation, non verbal communication

A main type of stem cells that supply new cells for an embryo as it grows and develops into a baby.

Butterfly shaped organ, Located anterior to the trachea, just inferior to the Larynx.

Tapping on the body and listening to the sound for signs of abnormalities such as pockets of fluid or air

A layer of epidermis that cells starts to die and form a barrier

Pair of spongy, air filled organs located on either side of the chest (thorax).

Ability to maintain internal stability

They help protect the body against infections, bacteria, viruses, and other foreign substances. Unlike red blood cells, white blood cells are not involved in oxygen transport. Instead, they are responsible for identifying and attacking pathogens, producing antibodies, and coordinating immune responses. There are several types of white blood cells, including neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils, each with specialized functions in immune defense

Cells are composed of ________.

What are the major components of Plasma membrane or cell membrane? 1. Phospolipid 2. Cytoplasm 3. Proteins 4. Ribosomes 5. Carbohydrates 6. Cholesterol

Also known as myocytes or muscle fibers, are specialized cells that make up muscle tissue and are responsible for producing force and movement in the body.

Study of anatomical structures of a sub-cellular level

Study of the tissues

These large, multinucleated cells are involved in bone resorption, the process of breaking down bone tissue. It dissolve’s bone matrix and release calcium and other minerals into the bloodstream, playing a crucial role in bone remodeling and calcium homeostasis.

Study of internal structures visualized by x-ray

Used to measure visual activity

Arranged in bundles of liner fibers. A single muscle cell is elongated in shape, containing within.

Is a mass of similar cells and cell products that forms a discreet region of an organ.

Structure that can be seen with the naked eye, whether by surface observation or dissection.

Is listening to the natural sounds made by the body, such as heart and lung sounds

A semi-fluid, gel-like substance in which the organelles are suspended. It consist mainly of water, dissolved ions, small molecules, and soluble macromolecules like proteins and enzymes.

a type of cell division that results in four cells, each having half the number of chromosomes of the original cell. A process by which egg and sperm cells are formed.
