BIO_SC 1200 Study Guide - Root Cap, Archaea, Prokaryote

Identify one organ and give me an example of each of the four tissue types found in this organ. Identify two cell types found in bone tissue and tell me what function each of these serves.

1) In your own words, what does it mean for a given cell/tissue to be 'insulin resistant'?

2) For each tissue/organ listed, state one feature (e.g. 'increased lipogenesis') that you would expect to find in the tissue/organ were insulin resistant:

Liver, Adipose tissue, skeletal muscle

3) Briefly identify the factor which is obesity that can cause insulin resistance and briefly explain the molecular mechanism.

Note that the structure of a seed plant has the following organizational levels. cells--> tissues --> tissue systems--> organs--> organ systems

-list three major vegetative (non-reproductive) organs of plants and list two major functions of each)

-each organ contains 3 tissue systems (not including meristematic tissue system). list these tissue systems and a function for each
