PEDS-100 Lecture Notes - Lecture 7: Elastic Cartilage, Spasm, Hyaline Cartilage
Document Summary
Organs are an aggregaion of similar issues to perform a paricular funcion. Glands are specialized epithelial cells found in many organs. Tissues are made up of cells and organs are made of issues. Responsible for movement and generaion of force (force provides movement) Skeletal (conscious human movement facilitated by striated muscle) Smooth (not striated- when smooth muscle contracts (contacts together- spasm) cause pain) Nervous (electrical impulse) acion potenial is electrical charge that passes along the axon. Iniiates and transmits acion potenials coordinaing body aciviies. One free surface exposed to a body cavity. A lumen (epithelial always exposed to tube or opening) Exocrine gland (exocrine glands have a duct/ endocrine glands secrete their hormone into the blood stream) Apical: top surface (free) external environment of internal body space. Allows for substances to move to the basement membrane- once in the cell. Small solutes can pass thru: glucose- amino acids.
