Hierarchy for multicellular animals |
Cell, Tissue, Organ, Organ System, Organism |
|
Four Major Animal Tissue Types |
Epithelial, Connective, Muscle, and Nerve |
|
Epithelial |
Thin sheet of cells for covering body surfaces and internal organs(ex. Skin) |
|
Connective |
Provides Support/Connection |
|
Muscle |
Proteins that can contract that enable the body to move |
|
Nerve |
Conducts electricity throughout the body in order to communicate |
|
Cellular Differentiation |
Many cell divisions that form into differing types of cells |
|
What is a stem cell? |
A stem cell is a cell that can undergo cellular differentiation |
|
What is Umbilical Cord Blood Cell Banking? |
Keeping umbilical cord blood to potentially make stem cells |
|
What are The Functions of the Digestive System? |
To convert food into energy and waste |
|
What are the accessory organs of the digestion system? |
The Liver, Pancreas and Gallbladder |
|
Issues with digestive system |
Diabetes or IBS |
|
What is the function of the circulatory system |
Supply Oxygen to Body, Transport Nutrients throughout body |
|
Four components of blood |
Plasma, Red Blood and White Blood Cells and Platelets |
|
Major Blood Vessel Types |
Arteries - Carry Blood Away From Heart Veins - Carry Blood to the Heart Capillaries - Small |
|
Disorders for Circulatory System |
Coronary Artery Disease and Stroke |
|
What is Gas Exchange |
Gas exchange is your cells producing Carbon Dioxide for the body to take out |
|
Identify how the body breaths |
Inhalation: Diaphragm moves downward which creates negative pressure and forces air inward Exhalation: Opposite |
|
Disorder with Respiratory System |
SARS, COVID-19 |
|
Some organs that have been successfully transplanted |
Heart, Kidney, Pancreas |
|
Nervous System Main Parts |
CNS - Brain, Spinal Cord PNS - Nerves Ganglia |
|
What is Dermal Tissue |
Dermal Tissue - Covers Outer Surface of plant for protection |
|
What is Vascular Tissue |
Transport water and minerals up from the roots and energy and nutrients down from leaves |
|
What is Ground Tissue |
Carries out Photosynthesis and stores energy |
|
Function of Root Systems |
-Anchors Plant -Absorb Water - Store Food and Nutrients -Absorbs Minerals and Nutrients |
|
Functions of the shoot system |
-Produce Flowers - Carry out photosynthesis |
|
Photosynthesis Equation |
Carbon Dioxide + Water(Using Light Energy) = Glucose(C6H12O6) + Oxygen |
|
Sections of Shoot Systems |
Flowers, Leaves, and Stems |
|
What is Chloroplast |
An Organelle that Leaves use for photosynthesis |
|
What is the difference between a male and female flower? |
Males have pollen Females have eggs |
|
Importance of Cellular Differentiation in plants |
For producing supporting cells and vascular tissue |
|
Importance of Meristematic Cells |
They become all other cells in a plant |
|
Dermal Tissue System Structure & Function |
The entry of carbon dioxide is controlled by dermal tissue |
|
What is the Xylem and Phloem |
The Xylem transports water and minerals UP The Phloem transports sugars both up and down |
