Chapter 1 ELO’s Describe the basic functions of living organisms. A. Responsiveness – organisms respond to changes in their immediate environment (long term changes is adaptability) B. Growth – over a lifetime‚ organisms grow larger through an increase in size or number of cells. Differentiation is when cells have specialized functions C. Reproduction – Organisms reproduce‚ creating subsequent generations of similar organisms D. Movement – Organisms are capable of movement

Muscle Tissue How does the structure of the skin normally protect the body? It is composed of cells that can contract to generate the physical force needed to move body structures and generate heat that warms the body. B. As the body was being moved‚ skin slid away from the underlying connective tissue. What is the normal function

epithelial tissue are supported by having such big cells? The large round cells allow it to slide or move past each other. It also allows the tissue to stretch . Questions A. What is the primary function of connective tissue? It connects the epithelium to the rest of the body. It also provides structure (bone)‚ stores energy (fat)‚ and transports material (blood). B. What can the shape of the cells in a particular type of tissue tell about the function of that tissue? Epithelial tissue comes

Fixation means prevention of degeneration of cells and tissue by the autolytic enzymes present in the cells and preservation of cells as close as possible to the living state (Manual for Cytology‚ 2005). Specifically in cytology‚ the purpose of fixation is to Maintain‚ as closely as possible‚ the cytomorphologic characteristics and diagnostically essential cytochemical elements of the cell. (Yoshida‚ 2004) Deactivate autolytic enzymes Replace cellular water Facilitate diffusion of dyes across

December 18th‚ 2013 Block 8 Body Tissues Essay There are four major categories of tissues in the human body. Each of them separate into even smaller groups with specific structures and functions. The four major types are epithelial tissue‚ connective tissue‚ muscle tissue and cardiac tissue. They are all necessities of the human body and contribute to many functions our bodies and cells carry out in order to survive. Tissues interact and group together to make up organs which then compose systems

Introduction A 45-year-old Caucasian female presented with a rapidly changing "black mole" on her left leg. Initially it was a flat brownish macule‚ which she had for many years. The patient reported that the lesion had become slightly raised with irregular borders over a period of 4 weeks prior to her presentation (see Figure 1). Upon questioning‚ the patient stated that she had received approximately 20 sessions of UV exposures per year for 5 consecutive years at tanning salons. She also mentioned
