Document Summary

Cell-cell interactions: transport across epithelium: glucose and amino acids. Cell physiology- study of how cells work together to perform functions in the body. Cells must be able to communicate with each other to perform these tasks as they work in the context of different tissue types that make-up our organ systems. An important question that will be discussed throughout the course: Artist renditions of the cell are often times misleading. Eukaryotic cells are usually drawn to look like the image below. The complexities that actually exist in a cell are not shown and it is also difficult to just use one cell image to represent the extraordinary variability between cell types in a multi-cellular organism. The cells of an organism are varied, from skin to bone to fat and nerve cells. But all of these cell types were generated during embryonic development from a single fertilized egg cell.
