ANP 1105 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Organelle, Lysosome, Tangled
Document Summary
Chapter 1: the human body and structural organization. Atoms: the smallest particle in an element (made up of electrons neutrons and protons) Molecules: a combination of atoms creating a substance. Organelle: molecules forming and interacting to form small organs that exist in cells. Cells: fundamental and structural unit of all living things. Tissues: groups of similar cells that have a common function. Organ: structure that contains at least 2 tissue types to perform a function within the body. Organ system: a system within the body that requires multiple organs in order to function. Four basic types of tissues are (page 3-4): Epithelium tissues covers the body surface and lines its cavities. Muscle tissue provides movement with the use of atp. Nervous tissue provides rapid internal communications by transmitting electrical impulses. Connective tissues support and protect the internal body organs. Summarize organelles and structures in this body cell.
