Composed of multiple types of tissues with similar functions.

Consists of several related organs that work together for a common function.

The largest structural level, representing a complete organism.

The standard position where the body is erect, feet slightly apart, and palms forward.

The smallest level of organization that includes atoms and molecules essential for life.

Formed by the combination of molecules to create the basic structural unit, the cell.

A group of cells and surrounding materials working together for a specific function.

A term referring to a position above or towards the head.

The body cavity housing the lungs and heart

Cavity divided into abdominal and pelvic cavities

Space that houses each lung

Membrane that lines the internal body walls

Membrane that covers internal organs

Position closer to or at the front of the body.

Position nearer to or at the back of the body.

Position closer to the mid-line of the body.

Position further away from the mid-line of the body.

Position closer to the surface of the body.

Position further from the surface of the body.

Divides the body into right and left parts.

Divides the body into anterior and posterior parts.

A type of joint that allows for free movement and is characterized by a fluid-filled cavity.

Transport of substances across a cell membrane via protein carriers without energy input.

Property of cell membranes that allows certain substances to pass while blocking others.

Movement of substances across a membrane without the use of energy by the cell.

Process of moving molecules against their concentration gradient, requiring energy.

Long, spindle-shaped, non-striated muscle cells responsible for involuntary movement.

Striated, uninucleated muscle found only in the heart, responsible for pumping blood.

Multinucleated, striated muscle cells that are under voluntary control and attach to the skeleton.

A flexible connective tissue found in various parts of the body, including joints and the rib cage.

A type of cartilage found in costal cartilages and the nose, providing support with some flexibility.

A tough form of cartilage that provides support and can withstand heavy pressure, found in intervertebral disks.

Hard tissue made of living cells embedded in a mineralized matrix, providing structure and support to the body.

The basic functional unit of nervous tissue, consisting of a cell body, dendrites, and an axon for transmitting signals.

The process by which molecules scatter through available space, moving down their concentration gradient.

Unassisted diffusion of solute through the plasma membrane, typically involving lipid-soluble substances.

The diffusion of water across a permeable membrane from a region of higher water concentration to lower.

A solution with a higher concentration of solutes compared to the cell, causing the cell to shrink.

A solution with a lower concentration of solutes compared to the cell, causing the cell to swell.

A solution with equal concentrations of solutes inside and outside the cell, resulting in no change in cell volume.

Proteins that span across the cell membrane, involved in the transport of substances.

The process by which cells engulf extracellular substances by enclosing them in a vesicle.

The process by which cells expel substances by packaging them in vesicles and excreting them out.

Cell organelles known as the powerhouse that produce ATP for energy through cellular respiration.

A type of endoplasmic reticulum studded with ribosomes, responsible for protein synthesis.

The part of the endoplasmic reticulum that is free of ribosomes, involved in lipid synthesis and detoxification.

An organelle that modifies, packages, and distributes proteins and lipids received from the ER.

Organelles that contain digestive enzymes to break down waste materials and cellular debris.

A type of tissue that covers surfaces, forms barriers, and is involved in absorption and secretion.
