Situated above or toward the head end

Superior

Name the three types of cartilages

Hyaline Fibrocartilage Elastic

Tissues

Tissue located in the brain, spinal cord, and nerves and interprets sensory information and coordinates bodily process - excitability and conductivity

Nervous tissue

The cell’s “control center” because it directs most metabolic activities including growth and reproduction

Nucleus

Located on the left side of the subject’s body or structure

Left

On the body referring to the upper chee

Anatomic Position

Study of the human body and their positional relationships to one another

Anatomy

Connective tissue type that serves as storage for surplus food and insulation to conserve body heat

Adipose

Movement of H2O across a membrane from area of low to high concentration to equalize fluid concentration of both sides of membrane

Osmosis

Flattened membrane lined sacs that bud off smell vesicles from the edges of the complex collects/packages secretions for use or export

Golgi complex

“Little organs” collection of membrane - bound functional structures in the cell.

Cell organelles

Cell’s “power plants” most chemical reactions involved in cellular respiration to produce ATP occur here

Mitochondria

Organelle that breaks down unneeded proteins and pathogens by engulfing and destroying them using digestive enzymes

Lysosomes

Smallest structural and functional unit that can exist as a self-sustaining entity

Cell

Movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration to equalize concentration

Space within a hollow or tubular structure such as an artery or intestine

Lumen

Relative to the outside or external surface of a structure

Superficial

Membrane that lines cavities or spaces between bones and joints
