HISTO QUIZES
Cards (140)
- Site of protein synthesis
- It is the Control center of the cell?
- It Controls the movement of substances into and out of the cell.
- It Produces energy through cellular respiration.
- Cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm that occurs after mitosis, resulting in two identical daughter cells.
- Cancer is caused by uncontrolled cell division, which can result from mutations in genes that regulate the cell cycle.
- Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in the formation of two daughter cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
- Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in the formation of four haploid daughter cells, each genetically different from the parent cell.
- It provides structural support and shape to the cell.
- What Modifies, sorts, and packages proteins for transport?
- It Stores water, nutrients, and waste products.
- It contains digestive enzymes for intracellular digestion.
- MC, a 45-year-old woman, experiences chronic inflammation and ulceration of the inner lining of his stomach. Which type of epithelial tissue is primarily affected in John's stomach?
- It lines the respiratory surfaces for gas exchange.
- It lines the urinary bladder and allows stretching.
- It specialized for secretion and absorption.
- It provides protection against abrasion and pathogens.
- It Facilitates rapid diffusion and filtration.
- During prophase, the nuclear envelope breaks down, and the chromosomes condense and become visible under a microscope.
- Which epithelial tissue type lines the inner surface of the small intestine and is involved in nutrient absorption?
- What major technological advancement in the late 19th century revolutionized histology by allowing for better tissue visualization?
- Which type of epithelial tissue is specialized for secretion and absorption?
- The spindle fibers attach to the centromeres of the chromosomes during metaphase, aligning them along the equatorial plane of the cell.
- What is the primary function of simple squamous epithelium?
- Which scientist first observed and described cells in cork under a microscope in 1665?
- What is the function of simple squamous epithelium in the lining of blood vessels?
- Telophase is the final phase of mitosis, during which the nuclear envelope re-forms around the chromosomes at each pole of the cell?
- Where would you expect to find simple columnar epithelium in the human body?
- James, a 50-year-old man, complains of persistent heartburn and chest pain. Endoscopy reveals damage to the stratified squamous epithelium lining his lower esophagus. What condition is James likely experiencing?
- Where would you find ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium in the human body
- Jessie, a 35-year-old woman, presents with recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). Upon examination, it is found that the epithelial lining of her bladder is damaged. What is the primary function of the epithelial tissue lining Sarah's bladder?
- Metaphase is the phase of mitosis during which sister chromatids are pulled apart and move towards opposite poles of the cell.
- What term is used to describe the interdisciplinary field that combines histology with genetics, molecular biology, and bioinformatics?
- Sarah, a 55-year-old woman, presents with abnormal thickening of the skin epidermis. Upon examination, it is found that the stratified squamous epithelium is affected. What condition is Sarah likely suffering from?
- Which epithelial tissue type lines the urinary bladder and allows stretching?
- What is the primary function of pseudostratified columnar epithelium in the respiratory tract?
- During interphase, the cell prepares for division by duplicating its DNA.
- Mark, a 40-year-old man, presents with chronic digestive issues, including bloating and malabsorption of nutrients. Upon examination, it is found that the lining of his small intestine is damaged. What is the likely consequence of the damage to the epithelial tissue lining Mark's small intestine?
- Who proposed the cell theory, which laid the foundation for modern histology, in the 19th century?
- What is the function of stratified squamous epithelium in the skin?
