Mary joy Carin 2mkb BODY ATLAS Last meeting‚ we watched a film called body atlas. The film was about human body‚ bones‚ heart‚ blood‚ skin‚ reproductive system‚ and etc. It gives us a basic understanding of the parts and function of different systems in the human body. For example‚ the heart‚ it keeps our body alive because it pumps blood all around our body that contains oxygen. Heart has the main role of blood circulation in the body. Another important part of the body is the blood. It carries

Introduction to Histology Introduction Histology is the microscopic study of cells and tissues of organisms. This study is important in the overall understanding of anatomy and physiology of organisms. It helps to understand the structures and functions of various tissues that make up bodily organs and systems (Wendy Wright‚ 2014). The cell theory states that a cell is the fundamental biological unit. All living organisms are composed of one or more cells‚ and every bodily activity that takes

Chem 1252‚ General Chemistry I Lab Johnson Acid-Base Titrations Introduction Titration is a convenient quantitative method for accurately determining unknown concentrations of solutions. A necessary requirement for its use is that a standard solution (a solution of known concentration) reacts chemically with the solution whose concentration is being determined. The standard solution is added to a solution of unknown concentration until all of the unknown solution has reacted. From the known quantity

HISTOLOGY PURPOSE: The purpose of this exercise is to be able to identify and correctly name the major tissue types in the body‚ as well as identifying the subcatergories of tissue types while observing them through the microscope and diagrams‚ and be able to explain the location and function of the tissue types in the body. There are not any real safety concerns for this lab other than making sure correct use and care of the microscope is used. EXERCISE 1: EPITHEILIAL TISSUE Epithelial Tissue Observations

HISTOLOGY: EPITHELIAL TISSUE o Human body composed of 4 basic types of tissue: epithelial‚ connective‚ nervous and muscular o Formed by cells and molecules of the extracellular matrix o Connective tissue: characterized by the abundance of extracellular fluid o Organs can be divided by parenchyma (composed of cells for main function of organ) and stroma ( supporting tissue) o Except in brain and spinal cord stroma made of connective tissue o Epithelial tissue: covering‚ lining protecting surfaces
