ANP 1105 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Mast Cell, Osteoclast, Proteoglycan
Document Summary
Atoms combine with molecules such as water and proteins. Molecules associate in specific ways to form organelles. Cellular level: various have common functions, but individual vary widely in shape reflecting unique functions. All body cells are interdependent but work together. Topic 1: structural organization of the human body. Levels of structural organization that make up the human body (pg 3-4) > atom: smallest particle of an element (ex. >molecule: smallest amount of substance that can exist alone. > organelles: molecules associate in specific ways to form organelles. > cell: fundamental structural and functional unit of living thing different roles. > tissues: groups of similar cells that have a common function: epithelium: protections, outer covering and inner lining, muscle: movement, smooth muscle (organ walls). cardiac muscles, skeletal muscles. Group of similar cells that have common function. Four types: epithelium, muscle, connective tissue, and nervous tissue.
