Nervous Tissue Rapid communication.


Neurons Conduct impulses.


Neuroglia (glial cells) Support and protect neurons.


Exocrine Glands Secrete through ducts.


Endocrine Glands Secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream.


Epidermis Outer protective layer of the skin.


Dermis Contains glands, blood vessels, nerves.


Hypodermis (subcutaneous layer) Fat storage, insulation.


Functions of the Integumentary System Protection, temperature regulation, prevent water loss, sensation, vitamin D production.


Axial Skeleton Includes skull, vertebral column, ribs.


Appendicular Skeleton Includes limbs, shoulder/hip girdles.


Sarcomere Basic unit of contraction.


ATP Breaks apart actin & myosin.


Calcium Regulation by Bones Bones store calcium; if blood calcium is low, calcium is released from bones.
