Study Notes
Cellular Structure and Function
- Cells with similar structures and functions group together to form tissues.
- Tissues further group together to form organs, which then form organ systems.
Cellular Differentiation
- Genes control the differentiation process, where cells develop specific structures and functions.
- Examples of cellular differentiation include:
- Skin epidermis cells synthesizing creatine.
- Muscle cells synthesizing actin and myosin.
- Immune cells synthesizing antibodies.
Embryonic Layers
- There are three embryonic layers: Ectoderm, Mesoderm, and Endoderm.
- Each layer gives rise to specific tissues and organs:
- Ectoderm: gives rise to skin, nervous system, and related organs.
- Mesoderm: gives rise to circulatory system, lymphatic system, muscles, and connective tissue.
- Endoderm: gives rise to digestive system, glands, respiratory system, and urinary system.
Embryonic Layers (Alternative Names)
- Ectoderm: also known as outer germ layer, gives rise to skin and nervous system.
- Mesoderm: also known as middle germ layer, gives rise to circulatory system, lymphatic system, muscles, and connective tissue.
- Endoderm: also known as inner germ layer, gives rise to digestive system, glands, respiratory system, and urinary system.
This quiz covers the process of cell differentiation, where genes control the synthesis of specific proteins in different cell types. Learn about the role of genes in skin epidermis, muscle, and immune cells.
