Term
sarcomere
Definition
A sarcomere is the functional unit of striated muscle. This means it is the most basic unit that makes up our skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle is the muscle type that initiates all of our voluntary movement. Herein lies the sarcomere’s main purpose. Sarcomeres are able to initiate large, sweeping movement by contracting in unison. Their unique structure allows these tiny units to coordinate our muscles’ contractions.A sarcomere (Greek sarx "flesh", meros "part") is the basic unit of striated muscle tissue. It is the repeating unit between two Z lines. Skeletal muscles are composed of tubular muscle cells (myocytes called muscle fibers or myofibers) which are formed in a process known as myogenesis. Muscle fibers contain numerous tubular myofibrils. Myofibrils are composed of repeating sections of sarcomeres, which appear under the microscope as alternating dark and light bands. Sarcomeres are composed of long, fibrous proteins as filaments that slide past each other when a muscle contracts or relaxes.The contractile unit of a skeletal muscle fiber. Sarcomeres are divided into bands of filaments made of actin or myosin. During muscle contraction, the filaments slide over each other to cause shortening of the sarcomere.sarcomere is one unit of a myofibril of overlapping thick and thin filaments
Term
ATP
Definition
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) The myosin head binds to ATP, which is the source of energy for muscle movement. Myosin can only bind to actin when the binding sites on actin are exposed by calcium ions.
Term
tropomyosin
Definition
The protein tropomyosin covers the myosin binding sites of the actin molecules in the muscle cell. To allow the muscle cell to contract, tropomyosin must be moved to uncover the binding sites on the actin. Calcium ions bind with troponin-C molecules (which are dispersed throughout the tropomyosin protein) and alter the structure of the tropomyosin, forcing it to reveal the cross-bridge binding site on the actin.
Term
troponin
Definition
One of the proteins that make up the thin filaments of muscle tissue and that regulate muscle contraction and relaxation. Troponin occurs in three forms bound together in a complex. One of the three forms is a receptor of calcium ions that induces structural changes that allow the actin in the thin filaments to interact with myosin, causing contraction.round guy that cover up binding sites in action until calcium is released into cells which changes confirmation and allows myelin to grab hold

Definition
an organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. Part of the endomembrane system in the cytoplasm, the Golgi apparatus packages proteins into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell before the vesicles are sent to their destination. The Golgi apparatus resides at the intersection of the secretory, lysosomal, and endocytic pathways. It is of particular importance in processing proteins for secretion
Term
ribosomes
Definition
is a complex molecular machine, found within all living cells, that serves as the site of biological protein synthesis (translation). Ribosomes link amino acids together in the order specified by messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules. They read the RNA, and join amino acids to form a polypeptide chain.The ribosomes and associated molecules are also known as the translational apparatus.
Term
endoplasmic reticulum
Definition
Think protein synthesis. ER is a type of organelle found in eukaryotic cells that forms an interconnected network of flattened, membrane-enclosed sacs or tube-like structures The membranes are continuous with the outer nuclear membrane. The outer (cytosolic) face is studded with ribosomes that are the sites of protein synthesis and moves things to Golgi.
Term
eukaryotic
Definition
are organisms whose cells have a nucleus enclosed within membranes, unlike Bacteria Their name comes from the Greek εὖ (eu, "well" or "true") and karyon, "nut" or "kernel").[6] Eukaryotic cells also contain other membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria and the Golgi apparatus, and Unlike unicellular archaea and bacteria, eukaryotes may also be multicellular and include organisms consisting of many cell types forming different kinds of tissue. Animals and plants are the most familiar eukaryotes.
Term
lysosomes
Definition
is a membrane-bound organelle found in many animal cells and most plant cells. Think digestion. They are spherical vesicles that contain hydrolytic enzymes that can break down many kinds of biomolecules. Besides degradation of polymers, the lysosome is involved in various cell processes, including secretion, plasma membrane repair, cell signaling, and energy metabolism. They digest materials taken into the cell and recycle intracellular materials. Step one shows material entering a food vacuole through the plasma membrane, a process known as endocytosis. In step two a lysosomes within an active hydrolytic enzyme comes into picture as the food vacuole moves away from the plasma membrane. Step three consists of the lysosome fusing with the food vacuole and hydrolytic enzymes entering the food vacuole. In the final step, step four, hydrolytic enzymes digest the food particles.
Synthesis of lysosomal enzymes is controlled by nuclear genes. responsible for more than 30 different human genetic disorders, which are collectively known as lysosomal storage diseases. These diseases result from an accumulation of specific substrates, due to the inability to break them down. These genetic defects are related to several neurodegenerative disorders, cancers, cardiovascular diseases, and ageing-related diseases.[8][9]
Term
DNA
Definition
is a molecule composed of two chains (made of nucleotides) that coil around each other to form a double helix carrying the genetic instructions used in the growth, development, functioning and reproduction of all known living organisms and many viruses. DNA and ribonucleic acid (RNA) are nucleic acids; alongside proteins, lipids and complex carbohydrates (polysaccharides), nucleic acids are one of the four major types of macromolecules that are essential for all known forms of life.
Term
RNA
Definition
is essential in coding, decoding, regulation and expression of genes. RNA and DNA are nucleic acids, and, along with lipids, proteins and carbohydrates, constitute the four major macromolecules essential for all known forms of life. Cellular organisms use messenger RNA (mRNA) to convey genetic information that directs synthesis of specific proteins. Many viruses encode their genetic information using an RNA genome. Some RNA molecules play an active role within cells by catalyzing biological reactions, controlling gene expression, or sensing and communicating responses to cellular signals. One of these active processes is protein synthesis, a universal function in which RNA molecules direct the assembly of proteins on ribosomes. This process uses transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules to deliver amino acids to the ribosome, where ribosomal RNA (rRNA) then links amino acids together to form proteins.
Term
cell physiology process
Definition
homeostasis, growth, reproduction, absorption, endocytosis, phagocytosis
Term
endocytosis
Definition
Endocytosis is a cellular process in which substances are brought into the cell. The material to be internalized is surrounded by an area of plasma membrane, which then buds off inside the cell to form a vesicle containing the ingested material. Endocytosis includes pinocytosis (cell drinking) and phagocytosis (cell eating).
Term
phagocytosis
Definition
is part of the endocytosis process. "to eat". is the process by which a cell engulfs a solid particle to form an internal compartment known as a phagosome. Phagocytosis is involved in the acquisition of nutrients for some cells. the process eliminates debris and pathogens
In an organism's immune system, phagocytosis is a major mechanism used to remove pathogens and cell debris. For example, when a macrophage ingests a pathogenic microorganism, the pathogen becomes trapped in a phagosome which then fuses with a lysosome to form a phagolysosome. Within the phagolysosome, enzymes and toxic peroxides digest the pathogen. Bacteria, dead tissue cells, and small mineral particles are all examples of objects that may be phagocytized.

Definition
mitosis is nuclear division plus cytokinesis, and produces two identical daughter cells. No fertilization so no change in cells.
Term

Definition
is a specialized type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, creating four haploid cells, each genetically distinct from the parent cell that gave rise to them.[1] This process occurs in all sexually reproducing single-celled and multicellular eukaryotes, including animals,
Term
dif with mitosis and meiosis
Definition
mitosis is like individual duplication of cells and meiosis is duplication because of sex and fertilization. Meiosis caused genetic changes where as mitosis is the same as the existing cell.
Term
sinoatrial node
Definition
The sinoatrial node (SA node), also known as sinus node, is a group of cells located in the wall of the right atrium of the heart.[1] These cells have the ability to spontaneously produce an electrical impulse (action potential; see below for more details), that travels through the heart via the electrical conduction system (see figure 1) causing it to contract. In a healthy heart, the SA node continuously produces action potential, setting the rhythm of the heart and so is known as the heart's natural pacemaker. The rate of action potential production (and therefore the heart rate) is influenced by nerves that supply it.[2]
Term
neuroglia
Definition
also called glial cells are non-neuronal cells in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system. They maintain homeostasis, form myelin, and provide support and protection for neurons.[1] In the central nervous system, glial cells include oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, ependymal cells, and microglia, and in the peripheral nervous system glial cells include Schwann cells and satellite cells. They have four main functions: (1) To surround neurons and hold them in place (2) To supply nutrients and oxygen to neurons (3) To insulate one neuron from another (4) To destroy pathogens and remove dead neurons. They also play a role in neurotransmission and synaptic connections and in physiological processes like breathing,

what is lumen
Definition
In biology, a lumen (from Latin lūmen, meaning "an opening"; plural lumina) is the inside space of a tubular structure, such as an artery or intestine. By extension, the term lumen is also used to describe the inside space of a cellular component or structure, such as the endoplasmic reticulum.

liver
Term
duodenum
Definition
the first part of the small intestine immediately beyond the stomach, leading to the jejunum. Image result for what does duodenum do
It receives partially digested food (known as chyme) from the stomach and plays a vital role in the chemical digestion of chyme in preparation for absorption in the small intestine. Many chemical secretions from the pancreas, liver and gallbladder mix with the chyme in the duodenum to facilitate chemical digestion.
Term
what does gallbladder do
Definition
Your gallbladder sits on the right side of your belly, below your liver. It’s a small organ, shaped like a pear, that holds a fluid called bile. This liquid, made in your liver, helps you digest fats and certain vitamins. When you eat, your body gets the signal to release it -- through channels called ducts -- into your small intestine.

In anatomy, serous membrane (or serosa) is a smooth tissue membrane consisting of two layers of mesothelium, which secrete serous fluid. The inner layer that covers organs (viscera) in body cavities is called the visceral membrane. A second layer of epithelial cells of the serous membrane, called the parietal layer, lines the body wall. Between the two layers is a potential space, mostly empty except for a few milliliters of lubricating serous fluid that is secreted by the two serous membranes.[1]
Term

Term
dif with endocrine and exocrine gland
Definition
Endocrine glands release chemical substances directly into the bloodstream or tissues of the body.The chemical substances released by the endocrine glands are known as hormones. Exocrine glands release chemical substances through ducts to outside the body or onto another surface within the body.
Term
ex. of endocrine and exocrine glands
Definition
endo; secrete hormones directly into body (no ducts). pineal (melatonin); ovaries/testes (estrogen/progest/testosterone)

Exocrine: uses a duct. sweat, salivary, mammary, ceruminous, lacrimal, sebaceous, and mucous.

method of secretion[edit]
Exocrine glands are named apocrine glands, holocrine glands, or merocrine glands based on how their products are secreted.[1]

Merocrine secretion – cells excrete their substances by exocytosis; for example, pancreatic acinar cells.
Apocrine secretion – a portion of the cell membrane that contains the excretion buds off.
Holocrine secretion – the entire cell disintegrates to excrete its substance; for example, sebaceous glands of the skin and nose.
product secreted[edit]
Serous cells secrete proteins, often enzymes. Examples include gastric chief cells and Paneth cells
Mucous cells secrete mucus. Examples include Brunner's glands, esophageal glands, and pyloric glands
Mixed glands secrete both protein and mucus. Examples include the salivary glands: although the parotid gland 20%is predominantly serous, the sublingual gland 5% mainly mucous gland, and the submandibular gland 70%is a mixed, mainly serous gland.
Sebaceous glands secrete Sebum, a lipid product. These glands are also known as oil glands, e.g. Fordyce spots and Meibomian glands.

Liver and pancreas are both.
