What are serous membranes?"<font color=""#ff061e"">SEROUS MEMBRANES</font> are thin, two-part membranes which line certain closed body cavities (spaces which do not open to the exterior) and envelop the viscera (organ)."
What do serous membranes line?"They line: <br>• the <font color=""#ff061e"">peritoneum</font> - which envelops many abdominal organs. <br>• the <font color=""#ff061e"">pleural sac</font> - which envelop the lungs. <br>• the <font color=""#ff061e"">pericardial sac</font> - which envelops the heart."
What are the functions of serous membranes?"These serous membranes (or serosae) <font color=""#ff061e"">exude a lubricating fluid</font> that promotes relatively <font color=""#ff061e"">friction-free movement</font> of the structures they surround."
What do serous membranes consist of?"A SEROUS MEMBRANE consists of: <br>• a simple squamous epithelium (mesothelium) that <font color=""#ff061e"">exudes the watery lubricating fluid </font><br>• a <font color=""#ff061e"">thin layer of connective tissue</font> that attaches the <font color=""#ff061e"">epithelium to adjacent</font> tissues <br>• (also carries <font color=""#ff061e"">blood and lymphatic vessels</font> and nerves)"
What are mucous membranes?"MUCOUS MEMBRANES <font color=""#ff061e"">line certain internal tubes</font> which open to the <font color=""#ff061e"">exterior</font>, for example: <br>• the gastrointestinal tract <br>• the respiratory tract <br>• the urinary tract <br>(these mucosae bear mucus-secreting cells to varying degrees)"
What does a mucous membrane (mucosa) consist of?"A MUCOUS MEMBRANE consists of: <br>• an <font color=""#ff061e"">epithelium lining</font> the lumen of a tube (type depends on site) <br>• an adjacent layer of <font color=""#ff061e"">connective tissue</font> often referred to as the <font color=""#ff061e"">lamina propria</font> (literally ‘one’s own layer’) <br>• a third layer consisting of <font color=""#ff061e"">smooth muscle cells</font>, referred to as the <font color=""#ff061e"">muscularis mucosae </font><br>• (also carries blood and lymphatic vessels and nerves)"
Why do organs such as the heart, lungs and the gut become surrounded by serous membranes?"During <font color=""#e60023"">embryonic development</font> the heart, lungs, and gut develop next to a <font color=""#e60023"">bag-like cavity</font> into which they <font color=""#e60023"">invaginate. </font><br>So they each become <font color=""#e60023"">surrounded by serous membrane</font> that has an inner and outer part."
What are the 2 types of serosal membrane and describe them?"• <font color=""#ff061e"">Visceral</font> serosal membrane <font color=""#ff061e"">closest to organs</font> in cavity <br>• <font color=""#ff061e"">Parietal</font> serosal membrane lines <font color=""#ff061e"">outer edge</font> of cavity"
What are epithelia?"<font color=""#ff061e"">Sheets</font> of contiguous cells, of <font color=""#ff061e"">varied</font> embryonic origin, that cover the <font color=""#ff061e"">external surface</font> of the body and line <font color=""#ff061e"">internal surfaces</font>, including the <font color=""#ff061e"">body’s vessels</font>"
Where have epithelial tissues derived from?"Epithelial tissues are derived from all of the embryological germ layers: <br>- from <font color=""#ff061e"">ectoderm</font> (e.g. the <font color=""#ff061e"">epidermis</font>) <br>- from <font color=""#ff061e"">endoderm</font> (e.g. the inner and outer lining of the <font color=""#ff061e"">GI tract</font>) <br>- from <font color=""#ff061e"">mesoderm</font> (e.g. the <font color=""#ff061e"">inner linings of body cavities</font>)"
Name the different epithelial cell types?"<font color=""#ff061e"">SIMPLE (one cell layer thick) </font><br>SQUAMOUS<br>CUBOIDAL<br>COLUMNAR<br>PSEUDOSTRATIFIED<br><br><font color=""#ff061e"">STRATIFIED / COMPOUND (more than one cell layer thick)</font><br>SQUAMOUS<br>CUBOIDAL<br>COLUMNAR <br>TRANSITIONAL"
What does the basement membrane include?Basement membrane = basal lamina + reticular layer
What is the function of simple squamous epithelia?"Material exchange and <font color=""#ff061e"">tissue lubrication <br><br></font>• Barrier in the <font color=""#ff061e"">brain and CNS<br></font>• <font color=""#ff061e"">Bowman’s Capsule</font> – Barrier <br>• Serosa of <font color=""#ff061e"">lungs, heart and viscera</font> – tissue lubrication"

What are the 2 types of ossification?Endochondral ossification<br>Intra-membranous ossification
Define endochondral ossification?The formation of long bones from a cartilage template. <br>Continued lengthening is by ossification at epiphyseal plates<br>e.g appositional growth (at the edges)
Define intra-membranous ossification?- The formation of bone from clusters of mesenchymal stem cells in the centre of bone<br>- Trabecular (cancellous bone)<br>e.g interstitial growth (growth in the middle)
Describe how cancellous bone is converted to cortical bone?"1. MSC convert into osteoblast that line recently formed trabeculae.<br>2. Lay down osteoid that is mineralised.<br>3. Osteoblasts are trapped - osteocyte. <br>4. This repeats (to form many lamellae)<br>5 The central MSC convert into blood vessel, lymph vessels and nerves. <br><img src=""paste-eec9c4b810cdd2cf13dcd4b872d19d7a1f135e5e.jpg"">"

What does the nucleus consist of? This consists of chromatin = genetic information made up of DNA and proteins <br>- Heterochromatin - dark solenoid of DNA tightly bound and histones<br>- Euchromatin - light beads on a string the genes are expresses as the DNA is more available for transcription
Name and describe the 3 components of the cytoskeleton?"Actin Filaments <br>- Smallest, they give the microvilli its shape <br>Intermediate Filaments <br>- Larger, made from several different proteins<br>- Form a tough supporting network in the cytoplasm<br>Microtubules<br>- Long, hollow cylinder made of tubulin<br>- Found where structures move (cillia, flagella, spindles)<br>- Found in 9 double and 2 singled arrangement <br><img src=""Cytoske.jpg"">"
What is the function of peroixsome?"Peroxisome <br>Contain catalase which can oxidize and detoxify substances<br>Common in kidney or liver<br><br>Peroxisomes are cellular organelles that play an important role in beta oxidation of very-long-chain fatty acids, degradation of phytanic acid by alpha-oxidation, degradation of hydrogen peroxide, as well as in the synthesis of bile acids and plasmalogen.<br><img src=""1200px-Peroxisome.svg.png"">"

Describe the function of the mitochrondrion?- Site of energy production (aerobic respiration)<br>- They contain many ATP synthases <br>- They have there own genome and can divide<br>- They are always inherited from the mother. They only become part of eukaryotes after they were phagocytosed to form a symbiotic relationship<br>- They can act as a store of calcium, when the intracellular concentration of calcium is very high, however this can prevent respiration
What are centrosomes and explain there role during the cell cycle?They are organelles that organise microtubules during the cell cycle, usually 2 for division.
What are the function of polar bodies?They are used to remove excess chromosomes. All nutrients and cell machinery are passed on to the egg. 3 are produced per oogenesis cycle.

Describe the distrubution of fibrocartilage? 4 areasIn intervertebral discs<br>Articular discs of the sternoclavicular and temperomandibular joints<br>Mensci of the knee joint <br>Pubic symphysis 
Describe the function of fibrocartilage?It has the resilence to act as a shock absorber and to resist shearing forces
Describe the step by step process of the growth of long bones at the epiphyseal growth plate?1. Progenitor cells > Chondroblasts > Chondrocytes <br>2. Zone of proliferation - cells actively divide and form columns and they secret matrix <br>3. Zone of hypertrophy - the cells enlarge the matrix is compressed into linear bands between the cell columns <br>4. Zone of calcified cartilage - enlarged cells degenerate (Ca2+ kill chondrocytes) and the matrix calcifies <br>5. Zone of resorption - Ca2+matrix is in contact with the marrow cavity.
