3.1 Organ Systems Page 164-165
2
Cells There are over 300 different kinds of cells in the human body www.nature.com
3
Cell specialization 1.The contents of the cytoplasm nature.com
4
Cell specialization 2. Environmental conditions: -temperature -nutrients present/absent dogs-cats.wikia.com dogs-cats.wikia.com
5
Cell Specialization 3. The influence of neighbouring cells www.pnas.org
6
Abnormal cells Due to environmental toxins en.wikipedia.org
7
Tissues There are four kinds of tissues in the human body.
8
Tissue type #1: epithelial Covering protects our organs Lines body cavities Covers the surface of the body Forms a barrier
9
epithelial 1.Skin epithelia: thin, flat cells form sheets, semi-permeable barrier 2.Columnal epithelia: columns of cells, secrete mucus, cilia, absorb materials
10
Tissue type #2: Connective Provides strength, support, protects, binds, or connects tissues Holds various parts of the body together Examples: cartilage, bone, fat, blood
11
bone Calcium-hardened tissue surrounds cells www. educationportal.com
12
Fat (adipose tissue) Large, tightly packed cells Found under skin and around organs Energy storage, padding and insulation Kentsimmons.uwinnepeg.ca
13
Blood Red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, plasma Transports nutrients, gases, wastes, chemicals, immune system Clots when the skin is cut
14
Tissue type #3: Muscle Sheets or bundles of muscle cells that contract to provide movement. Examples: smooth, cardiac, striated
15
Skeletal muscle Striated Attaches to bone Limbs, lower back www.siumed.edu
16
Smooth muscle Tapered at ends Blood vessel linings and lining internal organs Slow, sustained contractions kidsbrittanica.com
17
Cardiac Muscle Found in the heart britannica.com
18
Tissue type #4: Nervous Provides communication between all body structures.
19
Nervous tissue Finger-like projections Receive stimulus, send to brain/spinal cord, triggers response in muscle/gland
20
Stem cells An unspecialized cell that can produce a variety of specialized cells extremetech.com
21
Totipotent Embryonic cells can become any kind of cell
22
Pluripotent As the embryo develops the stem cells are able to give rise to less types of cells
23
Adult stem cells Produce only specific types of cells Skin cells repair skin.
24
Organs Composed of different types of tissues that work together to carry out particular functions. Examples include heart, stomach, kidneys
25
3.2 Organs and Systems Medical Imaging Technology X-rays For hard tissue such as bone bassendeanwellness.com
26
X-ray machine Lead blanket to protect the organs
27
CT or CAT scan 3-D x-rays HeartBrain
28
CAT scan
29
Ultrasound High frequency sound waves Real-time Watching organ function
30
Ultrasound machine Cold jelly is applied to the body.
31
MRI magnetic resonance imaging Radio signals in a magnetic field Bleeding of the brain in a stroke
32
MRI No metal!
33
Endoscopy Tiny camera, light, surgical instruments attached to a flexible tube
34
Organ System Organs working together with other organs with related functions or structures. Examples: circulatory system, respiratory system, excretory system
35
Digestive system Performs the physical and chemical break- down of food
36
Circulatory system Transportation of nutrients, gases, and wastes, defense against infection.
37
Respiratory System Gas exchange
38
Reproductive Sexual reproduction
39
Excretory Removal of wastes
40
Muscular system Movement of body or body part
41
endocrine Coordination and chemical regulation of body activities.
42
nervous Response to environment, control of body activities.
43
Skeletal system 206 bones
44
Integumentary system Skin etc.
