## Cell Biology and Tissues ### Organelles 40. Organelle on which proteins are synthesized: Ribosome 41. Organelle that synthesizes membrane components: Rough ER 42. Organelle that makes ribosomes: Nucleolus 43. Form that DNA is in the majority of the time: Chromatin 44. Type of transport that requires energy: Active 45. Type of transport that does not require energy: Passive 46. Two types of active transport: Solute pumping, bulk transport 47. Taking in of large amounts of materials actively: Endocytosis 48. Removing large amounts of solid materials actively: Exocytosis 49. Transport that requires a hydrostatic pressure difference: Filtration 50. An example of a solute pump: Sodium/potassium pump 51. A solution that has more dissolved solutes than the cell: Hypertonic 52. A solution that has more water than the cell: Hypotonic 53. A red blood cell placed in a solution of high salt content would... Lose water and shrivel (crenate) 54. Movement from an area of higher to lower concentration: Diffusion 55. Engulfing of solid particles: Phagocytosis 56. Engulfing of liquid particles: Pinocytosis 57. The process of DNA copying itself: Replication 58. The process of mRNA copying DNA: Transcription 59. The making of a protein at the ribosome: Translation ### Tissue Types 60. The four basic tissue types: Epithelial, connective, muscle, nerve 61. The most common of the four tissue types: Connective 62. The cells of this tissue shorten to exert force: Muscle 63. This tissue type covers body surfaces or forms glands: Epithelial 64. This tissue type have a free surface that is not in contact with other cells: Epithelial 65. This tissue type joins together cells and tissues and transports substances: Connective 66. This tissue type provides supporting framework for the body: Connective ### Connective Tissue 67. This tissue type is characterized by large amounts of extracellular matrix: Connective 68. This tissue type have a basement membrane that attaches to underlying: Epithelial 69. This tissue type have a rich supply of blood vessels in them: Connective (maybe), muscle, nervous 70. This tissue type do not have a direct blood supply: Epithelial 71. This tissue type have fibers that allow them to contract: Muscle 72. This tissue type can conduct an electrical current: Nervous 73. What tissue type is adipose tissue?: Connective 74. What tissue type is bone?: Connective 75. What tissue type is cartilage?: Connective 76. What tissue type is a neuron?: Nervous ### Muscle Tissue 77. Cells are specialized to contract: Muscular 78. Transmits electrochemical impulses: Nervous ### Nervous Tissue 79. Allows for organ movements within the body: Muscle 80. Characterized by ha' nonliving matrix: Muscular, Connective 81. Forms the brain and spinal cord: Nervous 82. Type of cell whose functional cells are sensitive to changes in their surroundings: Nervous (neuron) 83. What is matrix composed of?: ground substance and fibers 84. What tissue type makes up the outer layer of skin?: Stratified squamous epithelium 85. What tissue type makes up the connective tissue below the basement membranes of most epithelial tissues?: Dense fibrous irregular connective 86. What tissue type makes up the basement membrane?: Areolar (loose fibrous) connective 87. What type of membrane lines the two ventral body cavities and their organs?: Serous
