Understanding the Organization of Human Body HPHS4072 Anatomy and Physiology in Rehabilitation Chloe Mo AHRC Intended Learning Outcomes Briefly describe the organelles of a typical cell, and indicate the specific functions of each. Explain the functions of the cell nucleus and discuss the nature and importance of the genetic code. List the functions of the plasma membrane and the structural features that enable it to perform those functions. Describe the stages of the cell life cycle, including mitosis, interphase, and cytokinesis, and explain their significance. Identify the four major types of tissues in the body and describe their roles. Understand how different types of tissues are organized in organs and systems. Explain the concept of homeostasis, negative feedback and positive feedback. 5 2 Outline An introduction to human cells Structure of a typical mammalian cell Subcellular organelles Plasma membrane Cell life cycle Mitosis, Meiosis Different types of body tissues Epithelial, Connective, Muscular, Neural Homeostasis An Introduction to Human Cells Sex Cells (Germ Cells) i Reproductive cells > meiosis - Male sperm Female oocyte (a cell that develops into an egg) E Somatic Cells # Soma = body > - mitosis All body cells except sex cells 4 Anatomy of a Model Cell (Part 1) A Typical Cell = Plasma membrane = Nonmembranous organelles = Membranous organelles Secretory vesicles Centrosome and Centrioles Cytoplasm contains two Functions Essential for moveent of chromosomes during cell division; D receive centrioles at from isRER right angles; each centriole , a) glycosylation SER composed of 9 microtubule triplets in a 9 + 0 array 2) modification Centrosomeonly b) phosphorylation > - molecules - resicles n-type (nitrogen) o-type coxger) > - form by Golgi CYTOSOL organization of 3) packaged > vesicle with protein microtubules in - cytoskeleton a) lysosome lipich Centrioles protein b) membrane NUCLEUS I excreted Anatomy of a Model Cell (Part 2) = Plasma membrane = Nonmembranous organelles Cytoskeleton = Membranous organelles Proteins organized in Microfilament fine filaments or slender tubes Functions Strength and & support; movement of cellular structures and materials Microtubule Plasma Membrane Cell membrane : Lipid bilayer containing phospholipids, a) phospholipidbilayer steroids, proteins, and carbohydrates Free ribosomes ⑨holida alr Functions Isolation; channela + ↑ cholesteral b) Cholesterol 14 fluidity protection; ↓ cholesterol sensitivity; support; ↓ fluidity controls entry > and out of material and exit of 2) protein - in materials Cytosol (distributes materials by diffusion) diffusion a) Barrier el) 2) transport Plasma Membrane cytoplasm Er Extracellular Fluid (Interstitial Fluid) A watery medium that surrounds a cell Plasma membrane (cell membrane) separates cytoplasm from the extracellular fluid Cytoplasm Cytoplasm As Cytosol Cytosol = liquid Intracellular structures collectively known as organelles 7 (wbc) EXTRACELLULAR FLUID Anatomy of a Model Cell (Part 3) Microvilli Microvilli are extensions of the plasma membrane containing microfilaments.

Crandom) Metaphase I: Homologous chromosomes line up in the center of the cell. Cells line up at random; maternal and paternal chromosomes are shuffled.(random distribution) Crossover and shuffling result in genetic diversity. 34 Crossing : over Meiosis I & Anaphase I: Homologous chromosomes are pulled apart. - Telophase I: Homologous chromosomes are separated. This results in two daughter cells with 23 chromosomes each. This is reduction division since each cell now has half as many chromosomes. Necessary for sexual reproduction chromatids A different lister 35 Meiosis II Proceeds like mitosis with phases prophase II through telophase II. Sister chromatids line up in the center of the cell. Centromeres are broken and pulled to opposite poles. Results in 4 cells with 23 chromosomes each. 36 An Introduction to Tissues Tissues G Structures with discrete structural and functional properties Tissues in combination form organs, such as the heart or liver Organs can be grouped into 11 organ systems: Integumentary(表皮), Nervous, Endocrine, Skeletal, Muscular, Circulatory, Immune, Respiratory, Urinary, Digestive and Reproductive Systems 37 Four Types of Tissue Tissues Are collections of cells and cell products that perform specific, limited functions Four types of tissue skin) (e g things.. cover 1.
