CELL : the basic unit of life.
NUCLEUS : The large, membrane-bounded organelle that contains the genetic material, in the form of multiple linear DNA molecules organized into structures called chromosomes.
NUCLEAR ENVELOPE : The double-layered membrane that envelopes the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell, separating the contents of the nucleus from the (cytoplasm).
EPIDERMIS : One or more layers of cells forming the outermost portion of the skin or integument
NUCLEOLUS : The round granular structure within the nucleus of a cell, and composed of protein and RNA.
PLASMA MEMBRANE : The cell’s outer membrane made up of a two layers of phospholipids with embedded proteins. It separates the contents of the cell from its outside environment, and it regulates what enters and exits the cell.
CYTOPLASM : is that part of the cell between the cell membrane and the nuclear envelope.
MITOCHONDRIA : Spherical or rod-shaped organelles found within the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells, and are referred to as the “powerhouse of the cell since they act as the site for the production of high-energy compounds (e.g. ATP), which are vital energy source for several cellular processes.
GOLGI BODIES : An organelle found in most eukaryotic cells identified in 1898 by the Italian physician Camilo Golgi.
LYSOSOMES : Organelles containing a large range of digestive enzymes used primarily for digestion and removal of excess or worn-out organelles, food particles, and engulfed viruses or bacteria.
ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM : A membrane-bounded organelle that occurs as labyrinthine, interconnected flattened sacs or tubules that is connected to the nuclear membrane, runs through the cytoplasm, and may well extend into the cell membrane.
DERMIS : Mesodermally derived connective tissue underlying the epithelium of the skin. The deep vascular inner layer of the skin.The layer of skin below the epidermis, where the epidermis is in direct contact with the external environment and the dermis lies beneath.
RIBOSOME : A minute particle composed of protein and ribonucleic acid (RNA) that serves as the site of protein synthesis.
SOLUTION :A type of homogenous mixture in which the particles of one or more substances (the solute) are distributed uniformly throughout another substance (the solvent).
INTERCELLULAR FLUID : The fluid found in the intercellular spaces composed of water, amino acids, sugars, fatty acids, coenzymes, hormones, neurotransmitters, salts, and cellular products
DIFFUSION : The passive movement of molecules or particles along a concentration gradient, or from regions of higher to regions of lower concentration.
DIALYSIS : Separation of substances in solution by means of their unequal diffusion through semipermeable membranes.The process of separating larger molecules from smaller molecules that occurs in kidney dialysis for example, where a machine takes a role of a kidney and filtrates blood.
OSMOSIS : Diffusion of a solvent (usually water molecules) through a semipermeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration.
TONICITY : A state of normal firmness or functional readiness of body tissues or organs; a condition of sustained partial contraction of resting or relaxed muscles.
ISOTONIC : Having equal tension.
HYPOTONIC : having a lesser degree of tone or tension.
HYPERTONIC : A solution that has higher osmotic pressure (or has more solutes) than another solution to which it is compared.
FILTRATION : The movement of water and solutes across the cell membrane due to hydrostatic pressure from the cardiovascular system.
EXOCYTOSIS : The process in which the cell releases materials to the outside by discharging them as membrane-bounded vesicles passing through the cell membrane.
ENDOCYTOSIS : A process in which cell takes in materials from the outside by engulfing and fusing them with its plasma membrane.
PINOCYTOSIS : A process of taking in fluid together with its contents into the cell by forming narrow channels through its membrane that pinch off into vesicles, and fuse with lysosomes that hydrolyze or break down contents.
TISSUE : An aggregate of cells in an organism that have similar structure and function.
EPITHELIAL TISSUE : Pertaining to or composed of epithelium.
CONNECTIVE TISSUE : The animal tissue that chiefly originates from the embryonic mesoderm, and characterized by the abundance of extracellular components (such as fibers and intercellular substances). It connects, supports, or surrounds other tissues and organs.
NERVOUS : Possessing nerve; sinewy; strong; vigorous.
