Epithelial (protection, secretion, absorption), Connective (support, binding, transport), Muscle (movement), Nervous (communication, control)

Long (femur), Short (carpals), Flat (sternum), Irregular(vertebrae).

Causes goosebumps when it contracts in response to cold/stress.

Sensory neuron, interneuron, motor neuron cause involuntary actions.

Motor cortex sends signals to muscles via neurons, with cerebellum help for accuracy.

Anatomy studies the body's structure, while physiology studies how its parts work together.

CSF cushions the brain and spinal cord, removes waste, and provides nutrients.

Pain receptors are in tissues like skin, joints, and organs.

Epidermis protects and prevents water loss; dermis provides strength and houses nerves/blood vessels.

DNA stores genetic info (double-stranded, thymine), RNA helps with protein synthesis (single-stranded, uracil).

Acetylcholine release (triggered by nerves) stimulates muscles to contract.

Endocrine glands release hormones into bloodstream; exocrine release substances into ducts.

Dendrites receive signals, axon transmits, axon terminals release neurotransmitters.

Controls what enters and exits the cell, acting as a barrier and a gatekeeper.

Contains the cell's genetic material (DNA) and directs all cellular activities. It's the control center.

The gel-like substance within the cell that houses organelles and allows chemical reactions to occur. It's like the workshop.

Consists of the skull, spine, and ribcage. It's the core of the skeleton.

Includes the limbs (arms and legs) and the shoulder and pelvic girdles. It's the framework for movement.

Moves substances across the cell membrane against their concentration gradient, requiring energy.

Moves substances across the cell membrane along their concentration gradient, requiring no energy.

Breaks down complex molecules into simpler ones, releasing energy. Think of it as 'breaking things down'.

Builds complex molecules from simpler ones, requiring energy. Think of it as 'building things up'.

The first stage of cellular respiration. It breaks down glucose into pyruvate, releasing a small amount of ATP.

The second stage of cellular respiration. It further breaks down pyruvate, releasing more ATP and electron carriers.

The final stage of cellular respiration. It uses electrons to generate a large amount of ATP, similar to a hydroelectric power plant.

Covers and protects body surfaces, lines cavities, and forms glands. Think of it as the body's 'skin'.

Supports and binds other tissues, providing structure and transport. Like scaffolding.
