1. Nucleus
- Control center of the cell
- Contains the genetic material
or DNA
3 regions of nucleus:
1. Nuclear Membrane
- a double phospholipid
membrane that allows the
exchange of materials with the
Interactions of skeletal muscles
rest of the cells
1. Prime movers 2. Nucleoli
- Has the major responsibility for - Nucleus contains one or more
causing a movement nucleoli which are sites for
2. Antagonists ribosome production
- Opposes the action of the 3. Chromatin
prime mover - Condenses to form
3. Synergists chromosomes during cell
- Produces the same movement division
by the prime mover or reduces
undesirable movements 2. Plasma membrane
4. Fixators - Double phospholipid layer with
- Stabilizes the origin of the HYDROPHILIC (water loving)
prime mover heads and HYDROPHOBIC
(water fearing) tails
Cell Parts - Microvilli- finger like
projections that increase area
for absorption
3. Membrane Junctions
- Binds different types of cells
3Types of Junctions:
1. Tight Junctions
- Binds junctions into leakproof
sheets; acts like zipper
- Small intestines - Determine the overall shape of
2. Desmosomes the shape of cell
- Prevent cells subjected to
mechanical stress not to be 11. Centrioles
pulled apart - Generation of microtubules;
3. Gap Junctions formation of mitotic spindle
- Are communicating junctions - during cell division
Heart 12.Cilia
- Whiplike extensions that move
3. Cytoplasm substances along cell surface
- Material outside the nucleus 13.Flagella
where the other organelles are - Projections that are basically
located longer
4. Ribosomes - ONLY FLAGELLATED CELL IN
- Sites of protein synthesis THE HUMAN BODY IS THE
- Made of RNA SPERM
5. Endoplasmic Reticulum
- Rough ER: studded with CELL DIVERSITY
ribosomes; where materials of 1. Cells that connect body parts -
membrane are formed Fibroblast: makes and
- Smooth ER: cholesterol secretes protein building blocks
synthesis, fat metabolism, - Erythrocyte/RBC: carries
detoxification of drugs oxygen in the blood
6. Golgi Apparatus 2. Cells that cover and line body organs
- Modifies and packages - Epithelial Cells: resist tearing when
proteins epithelium is rubbed or
7. Lysosomes pulled because of the presence
- Digest non-usable materials - of desmosomes
Suicide “bags” of the cell 3. Cells that move organs and body
8. Peroxisomes parts
- Sacs of oxidase enzymes - Skeletal, Cardiac, Smooth
- Break down free radicals Muscle Cells: shorten
9. Mitochondria forcefully and move the bones
- “powerhouse of the cell” and pump blood
- Provides ATP (Adenosine 4. Cell that stores nutrients
Triphosphate) for cellular - Fat: produced by a large lipid
energy droplet in its cytoplasm
10. Cytoskeleton 5. Cell that fights disease
- Provides cell with an internal - WBC such as macrophage:
framework crawls to tissues to reach
3Types of Cytoskeleton: infection sites
1. Microfilaments 6. Cell that gather information and
- Cell motility controls body function
2. Intermediate Filaments - Nerve Cell/Neuron: receives
- Help desmosomes so that the and transmits messages
cell will not be pulled apart 7. Cells of reproduction
3. Microtubules - Oocyte: largest cell in the body -
Sperm: has tail built for Fiber
swimming to the egg for Found in:
fertilization 1. Tendons- attach muscle to
bone
TISSUES 2. Ligaments- attach bone to
- Group of cells with similar bone at joints
3. Dermis- lower layers of the
skin
4. Loose Connective Tissue
1. Areolar Tissue- most widely
distributed connective tissue
2. Adipose Tissue- for
insulation, protection, and site for
fuel storage
5. Reticular Connective Tissue - Forms
stroma of of lymphoid organs
structure and function
6. Blood (Vascular Tissue)
- Transport vehicle for
cardiovascular system for
carrying nutrients and wastes
- Blood plasma: blood cells
surrounded by fluid matrix
