Document Summary
Effectors: body cells and liver take up glucose. Normal blood glucose is about 4. 5 mmol/l (si units) Platelets bind to the blood vessel (they have receptors for the broken blood vessel wall so they are the detectors). Thus the platelets which begin to make up the clot are effectors as well as everything else. Intermediate filament thinnest elements of the cytoskeleton composed of protein actin and myosin functions include help generating movement and provide mechanical support thicker than microfilaments exceptionally strong found in parts of the cell subject to mechanical stress help stabilize the position of organelles and help cells attach to one another largest of the cytoskeletal components long hollow unbranched tubes composed of mainly the protein tubulin functions include help determining cell shape, and movement of organelles. Has same number of melanocytes that produce different amounts of melanin composed of 5 layers: stratum corneum (cornified) stratum lucidum (clear) stratum granulosum (granular) stratum spinosum (spiny) stratum germinativum (divinding)
