Connective Tissue Components

Connective tissue is made up of three essential elements: an extracellular fluid matrix, cells, and fibers. The matrix provides support, cells perform specialized functions, and fibers offer strength and flexibility.

Malignant Hyperthermia

A rare but serious medical condition where general anesthesia triggers a rapid and uncontrolled increase in body temperature, muscle rigidity, and metabolic changes. This can lead to life-threatening complications.

Sepal

A protective leaf-like structure found in the outermost whorl of a flower, called the calyx. It usually encloses the bud before it opens.

Stapedial Reflex

A reflex response to loud sounds, where the stapedius muscle contracts to dampen vibrations in the middle ear, protecting the inner ear from damage.

Strength: Muscles & Tendons

Muscle strength depends not only on the muscles themselves but also on the dense regular connective tissue of tendons, which connect muscles to bones and transmit forces.

Study Notes

Anesthesiology

  • Anesthesiologist: doctor specializing in anesthesia.

Anatomy

  • Xiphoid process: small tip of the sternum.

Biology

  • Mutualism: relationship between nitrogen-fixing bacteria and legumes (both benefit).
  • Pollen grain: produces the mature microgametophyte.
  • Gametophyte: haploid.

Medicine

  • Eye exams and drops: Dilated pupils allow better eye examination, sunglasses protect eyes from excessive light.
  • Strep throat: hygiene (reusing cups) was linked to recurring infections.
  • Malignant hyperthermia: serious allergic reaction to general anesthesia
  • Dyspnea: treatment depends on underlying cause.
  • Anesthesia stages: Stage 3 is during surgical procedures.
  • Anesthesia side effects: side effects exist but further details are needed.

Environmental Science

  • Fossil fuels: Produce carbon dioxide (a disadvantage).
  • Carbon Monoxide: Air pollutant, odorless, from burning industrial waste.

Botany

  • Endosperm: resulting from double fertilization, food source for embryo.
  • Gymnosperms: vascular plants with naked seeds.
  • Cultivar: specific variety of a plant (cultivated).
  • Dicotyledon roots: grow from radicles.
  • Antheridia: male gametangia of ferns.
  • Fruit function: protect and disperse seeds.

Other

  • Vector: organisms transmitting diseases (e.g., mosquitoes).
  • Ground tissue (parenchyma): responsible for pulp in some fruits.
  • Sepals: not part of the gynoecium whorl (female reproductive structure)
  • Stapedial reflex: dysfunction due to facial nerve damage.
  • Chemical/physical pollutants: examples include discarded water bottles, sulfur dioxide
  • Bulimia: socially accepted dieting behaviors mask the disorder in some cases.
  • Energy conservation: multiple methods are available for energy conservation.
  • Bee illness effect on plants: plants won't receive enough pollination.
  • Nuclear reactor accident: Meltdown is a term for overheating.
  • Water treatment: chlorine and ozone disinfect water.
  • Stapedial reflex: related to facial nerve damage causing increased reflex.
  • Daisy: relative of the aster family(flower).
  • Strength: muscles plus tendons (dense regular connective tissue).
  • Ground tissue (parenchyma): found in some fruits like oranges—the pulp.
