Tissue

a group of similar cells that perform a common function

Endoplasmic Reticulum

a network of tubules used to transport and synthesize (produce) materials

Mediastinum

area between the lungs containing the heart, aorta, venae cavae, esophagus, and trachea

lateral

away from the midline

Cell

basic structural and functional unit of life; the smallest living structures that serve as the basic units of structure and function in organisms

abdominopelvic cavity

cavity that contains organs of digestive system as well as kidneys and ureters of urinary system

Inferior (caudal)

closer to the feet

Superior (cranial)

closer to the head

Proximal

closest to point of attachment to trunk

Organ

contain two or more tissue types that work together to perform specific, complex functions

pelvic cavity

contains distal part of the large intestine, the urinary bladder and urethra, and the internal reproductive organs

coronal (frontal) plane

divides the body or organ into anterior (front) and posterior (back) portions

midsagittal plane

divides the body or organ into equal right and left portions

Transverse (horizontal/cross-sectional) plane

divides the body or organ into superior (top) and inferior (bottom) portions

saggital plane

divides the body or organ into unequal right and left portions

simple diffusion

example of passive transport; movement of substances through the cell membrane based on concentration differences (high to low)

Distal

furthest from point of attachment to trunk

Organ system

group of organs that work together to perform a specific function

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

has ribosomes on walls. Transports and modifies proteins made by ribosomes.

Organsim

has several organ systems which work together to maintain life; highest level of structural organization in the body

thoracic cavity

houses the pleural cavity, mediastinum, and pericardial cavity

Plains of reference

imaginary lines or actual dissecting cuts (sections) which may be used to "section" the body or an organ.

Anterior (ventral)

in front of; toward the front surface

Proteins

in the cell membrane and loosely attached to the surface

ribosomes

involved in protein synthesis

ribosomes attached to ER

make proteins primarily for export

cilia

motile; move substances over the surface of stationary cells

flagellum

motile; whip-like structure that moves cells (sperm cells)

active transport

movement of substances through the cell membrane against a concentration gradient

microvilli

nonmotile, help increase surface area

process by which large molecules are brought into the cell

exocytosis

process by which large molecules are secreted by the cell

mitochondrion
