Cell

• Ecretory Vesicle


  Formed by the Golgi Apparatus and secreted by exocytosis
• Lysosome


  • Contains enzymes that digest material taken into the cell
  • Breaks down fatty acids, amino acids, and hydrogen peroxide
• Peroxisome


  Site of aerobic respiration and the major site of ATP synthesis
• Mitochondria


  Supports cytoplasm and site of aerobic respiration and the major site of ATP synthesis
• Microtubule


  • Assists in cell division and forms components of cilia & flagella
• Centrioles


  • Assists in cell division and forms components of cilia & flagella
• Cilia


  Facilitate the movement of chromosomes during cell division and located on cell surface that move substances over surfaces of certain cells
• Flagella


  Facilitate the movement of chromosomes during cell division and located on cell surface that move substances over surfaces of certain cells
• Microvilli


  Increase surface area of certain cells and located on cell surface that move substances over surfaces of certain cells
• Proper sperm cells
• Neologism


  New word or phrase whose derivation cannot be understood; often seen in schizophrenia; it has also been used to mean a word that has been incorrectly constructed but whose origins are nonetheless understandable (e.g., headshoe to mean hat), but such constructions are more properly referred to as word approximations
• Word Salad


  Incoherent, essentially incomprehensible, mixture of words and phrases commonly seen in far-advanced cases of schizophrenia
• Circumstantiality


  Disturbance in the associative thought and speech processes in which a patient digresses into unnecessary details and inappropriate thoughts before communicating the central idea; observed in schizophrenia, obsessional disturbances, and certain cases of dementia
• Tangentiality


  Oblique, digressive, or even irrelevant manner of speech in which the central idea is not communicated
• Incoherence


  Thought that, generally is not understandable; patient never gets from desired point to desired goal
• Perseveration


  Pathological repetition of the same response to different stimuli, as in a repetition of the same verbal response to different questions; persistent repetition of specific words or concepts in the process of speaking. Seen in cognitive disorders, schizophrenia, and other mental illness
• Verbigeration


  Meaningless and stereotyped repetition of words or phrases, as seen in schizophrenia; also called cataphasia
• Echolalia


  A person's psychopathological repeating of words or phrases of by another; tends to be repetitive and persistent. Seen in certain kinds of schizophrenia, particularly the catatonic types
• Condensation


  Mental process in which one symbol stands for a number of components
• Irrelevant answer


  Answer that is not in harmony with question asked
• Neologism

• Loosening of associations


  Characteristic schizophrenic thinking or speech disturbance involving a disorder in the logical progression of thoughts; manifested as a failure to communicate verbally adequately; unrelated and unconnected ideas shift from one subject to another
• Derailment


  Gradual or sudden deviation in train of thought without blocking; sometimes used synonymously with loosening of association
• Word Salad


  Incoherent, essentially incomprehensible, mixture of words and phrases commonly seen in far-advanced cases of schizophrenia
• Flight of ideas


  Rapid succession of fragmentary thoughts or speech in which content changes abruptly and speech may be incoherent
• Circumstantiality


  Disturbance in the associative thought and speech processes in which a patient digresses into unnecessary details and inappropriate thoughts before communicating the central idea; observed in schizophrenia, obsessional disturbances, and certain cases of dementia
• Tangentiality


  Oblique, digressive, or even irrelevant manner of speech in which the central idea is not communicated
• Clang association


  Association or speech directed by the sound of a word rather than by its meaning; words have no logical connection; punning and rhyming may dominate the verbal behavior. Seen most frequently in schizophrenia or mania
• Incoherence


  Thought that, generally is not understandable; patient never gets from desired point to desired goal

• Blocking


  Abrupt interaction in train of thinking before a thought or idea is finished after brief pause, person indicates no recall of what was being said or was going to be said
