WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONS GRADED A++ LATEST UPDATE
Parenchymal Cells
-the functional cells of an organ,
-the function of these cells depend on the organ to which they belong
Connective Tissue Cells
-function to support cells of other tissue;
-form protective sheaths around hollow organs;
-involved in storage, transport and repair;
-consist of fibers, ground substance and cells
Cells found in Connective Tissue
Fibroblasts, adipocytes, reticular cells, macrophages, leukocytes, plasma cells and mast
cells
Mitosis
-The process of forming new cells to promote growth, replace dead or repair damaged
cells;
-Occurs in somatic cells;
-Process of reproducing the cell nucleus then dividing to form two identical cells from
the original;
-each new cell has 23 sets of chromosomes.
Meiosis
, -process of diploid germ cell division (23 sets of chromosomes) to form haploid germ
cells which are ovum and sperm; otherwise known as
-Gametes which have 22 chromosomes plus an X;
22 X plus X for females;
22 X plus Y for males.
Somatic Cell
-Each somatic cell contains a pair of chromosomes, with similar genes and produce
similar proteins with similar function;
-One from mother and one from father;
-These chromosomes are called homologues
Fatty Acid
-Chains of Hydrocarbons (4-24 carbons) with a Methyl group: CH3, at one end and a
Carboxyl group: COOH, at the other end
Methyl group
-ONE Carbon bonded with THREE Hydrogen;
-CH3
Carboxyl group
-ONE Carbon with a double bonded Oxygen and a single bonded Oxygen Hydrogen;
-COOH
Omega Nomenclature
-Identifies the point of unsaturation where the double bond is.
-Starts with the terminal Carbon on the omega end of the fatty acid.
-The Omega end is the furthest from the Carboxyl end
