How substances move acrossthe Plasma Membrane
Substances need to pass through the
membrane to enter or leave the celland they do so in a number of ways.Some of these processes require no
energy i.e. they are passive, whileothers require energy i.e. they areactive.

Active transport When a substance is transported from a
low concentration to a high concentrationi.e. uphill against the concentrationgradient, energy has to be used. This is
called active transport. Active transport is important in
maintaining different concentrations of theions sodium and potassium on either side
of the nerve cell membrane. It is also important for removing valuable
molecules such as glucose, amino acidsand sodium ions from the urine.

Phagocytosis Phagocytosis is sometimes calledcell eating.
It is a process that requires energyand is used by cells to move solid
particles like bacteria across theplasma membrane.
Finger-like projections from the
plasma membrane surround thebacteria and engulf them.

Once within the cell, enzymes
produced by the lysosomes of the cell(described later) destroy thebacteria.
The destruction of bacteria and otherforeign substance by white blood cellsby the process of phagocytosis is a
vital part of the defense mechanismsof the body.

Pinocytosis
Pinocytosis or cell drinking is avery similar process to phagocytosisbut is used by cells to move fluidsacross the plasma membrane.
Most cells carry out pinocytosis.

Endocytosis Uptake of material through the cell membrane
by the formation of a membrane-bound sac
called a vesicle Invaginates to form a vesicle containing the
material to be taken into the cell
Vesicle is then taken into the cell
Phagocytosis-used for endocytosis whensolid particles are ingested
Pinocytosis-much smalles vesicles areformed that contain liquid rather thanparticles

Exocytosis
Process within the cell which creates a
membrane-bound sac called secretoryvesicle, which fuses with the cellmembrane and the material in the vesicleis eliminated from the cell
Endocytosis is similar to this process butoccurs in an opposite direction howeverboth require energy in the foto formvesicles

CHAPTER 1: HISTOLOGY TISSUESMitosis
Process by which a cell divides and produces two daughter cell from a single
parent cell.
Stages of MitosisThe process of mitosis is divided into 6 stages. The Interphase, Prophase,Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, and cytokinasis. At Interphase, there isonly one cell, but after cytokinasis there are two identical cells. Beforemitosis can take place, the cell need to store enough energy to drive thechemical processes during the cell division. During this period of time, thereis intense cellular activity. The cell grows in size. The length of the growphase varies between a few hours to a few months. We the cell has storedenough energy, it is ready to divide itself.
1. Interphase
DNA has replicated, but has not formed the condensed structure ofchromosome. They remain as loosely coiled chromatin. The nuclearmembrane is still to protect the DNA molecules from undergoingmutation.
Chromatin - The complex of DNA and proteins that makes up a eukaryotic chromosome. When thecell is not dividing, chromatin exists as a mass of very long, thin fibers that are not visible with a light
microscope.

2. ProphaseThe DNA molecules progressively shorten and condense by coiling, toform chromosomes. The nuclear membrane and nucleolus are no longervisible. The spindle apparatus has migrate to opposite poles of the cell
Nucleolus - noo-KLEE-oh-lus) (plural, nucleoli) A specialized structure in the nucleus,formed from various chromosomes and active in the synthesis of ribosomes.

5. AnaphaseThe spindle fibres shorten and the centromere splits, separated sisterchromatids are pulled along behind the centromeres.
sister chromatids - (KROH-muh-tidz) Replicated forms of a chromosome joinedtogether by the centromere and eventually separated during mitosis or meiosis II.

Epithelial TissuesEpithelial tissue covers the whole surface of the body. It is made up of cellsclosely packed and ranged in one or more layers. This tissue is specialized toform the covering or lining of all internal and external body surfaces.
Epithelial tissue that occurs on surfaces on the interior of the body is knownas endothelium. Epithelial cells are packed tightly together, with almost nointercellular spaces and only a small amount of intercellular substance.Epithelial tissue, regardless of the type, is usually separated from theunderlying tissue by a thin sheet of connective tissue; basement membrane.The basement membrane provides structural support for the epithelium andalso binds it to neighboring structures.
Types of Epithelial TissuesEpithelial tissue can be divided into two groups depending on the number oflayers of which it is composes.
Epithelial tissue which is only one cell thick is known as simple
epithelium.
If it is two or more cells thick such as the skin, it is known as stratifiedepithelium.

Simple epitheliumSimple epithelium can be subdivided according to the shape andfunction of its cells.
Squamous (pavement) epithelium.Squamous cells have the appearance of thin, flat plates. The shapeof the nucleus usually corresponds to the cell form and help toidentify the type of epithelium. Squamous cells, for example, tend tohave horizontal flattened, elliptical nuclei because of the thinflattened form of the cell. They form the lining of cavities such asthe mouth, blood vessels, heart and lungs and make up the outer
layers of the skin.

Simple Cuboidal EpitheliumAs their name implies, cuboidal cells areroughly square or cuboidal in shape. Each cell has a sphericalnucleus in the centre. Cuboidal epithelium is found in glands and in
the lining of the kidney tubules as well as in the ducts of the glands.They also constitute the germinal epithelium which produces the eggcells in the female ovary and the sperm cells in the male testes.

Simple Columnar EpitheliumColumnar epithelial cells occur in one or more layers. The cells areelongated and column-shaped. The nuclei are elongated and areusually located near the base of the cells. Columnar epithelium
forms the lining of the stomach and intestines. Some columnar cellsare specialized for sensory reception such as in the nose, ears andthe taste buds of the tongue. Goblet cells (unicellular glands) arefound between the columnar epithelial cells of the duodenum. Theysecrete mucus or slime, a lubricating substance which keeps thesurface smooth.

Ciliated Columnar EpitheliumThese are simple columnar epithelial cells, but in addition, theyposses fine hair-like outgrowths, cilia on their free surfaces. Thesecilia are capable of rapid, rhythmic, wavelike beatings in a certain
direction. This movement of the cilia in a certain direction causesthe mucus, which is secreted by the goblet cells, to move (flow orstream) in that direction. Ciliated epithelium is usually found inthe air passages like the nose. It is also found in the uterus andFallopian tubes of females. The movement of the cilia propel theovum to the uterus.

Stratified EpitheliumWhere body linings have to withstand wear and tear, the epitheliaare composed of several layers of cells and are then calledcompound or stratified epithelium. The top cells are flat and
scaly and it may or may not be keratinized (i.e. containing a tough,resistant protein called keratin). The mammalian skin is an exampleof dry, keratinized, stratified epithelium. The lining of the mouthcavity is an example of an unkeratinized, stratified epithelium.

Functions of Epithelial Tissue
ProtectionEpithelial cells from the skin protect underlying tissue from
mechanical injury, harmful chemicals, invading bacteria and fromexcessive loss of water.
SensationSensory stimuli penetrate specialized epithelial cells. Specializedepithelial tissue containing sensory nerve endings is found in theskin, eyes, ears, nose and on the tongue.
SecretionIn glands, epithelial tissue is specialized to secrete specific chemicalsubstances such as enzymes, hormones and lubricating fluids.
Absorption
Certain epithelial cells lining the small intestine absorb nutrients fromthe digestion of food.
ExcretionEpithelial tissues in the kidney excrete waste products from the bodyand reabsorb needed materials from the urine. Sweat is also excretedfrom the body by epithelial cells in the sweat glands.

DiffusionSimple epithelium promotes the diffusion of gases, liquids andnutrients. Because they form such a thin lining, they are ideal for thediffusion of gases (e.g. walls of capillaries and lungs).
CleaningCiliated epithelium assists in removing dust particles and foreignbodies which have entered the air passages.
Reduces FrictionThe smooth, tightly-interlocking, epithelial cells that line the entire
circulatory system reduce friction between the blood and the walls ofthe blood vessels.

INTERCELLULAR MATTERFIBERS:collagen fibers are composed of a protein collagen. Structure - five levels oforganization:
1. polypeptide chain, consists of repeating sequences of 3 amino acids, 2 ofthem are proline or lysine and glycine, and the 3rd - any other
2. molecule - three polypeptide chains form a collagen molecule3. protofibril - several collagen molecules, cross-linked by covalent bonds4. microfibril - a union of several protofibrils forms them5. fibril - a combination of bundles of protofibrils
collagen is heterogeneous with regard to amino acid composition, number ofcross-links, attached carbohydrate side-chains and degree ofhydroxylation; on this basis collagen is divided into 15 subtypes collagenfibers are firm and do not stretch
elastic fibers structure: on the fiber exterior there are microfibrils, composed of
microfibrilary protein, the interior is formed primarily by a protein called elastin;elastic fibers stretch well, then easily regaining their original shape
reticular fibers - a subtype of collagen fibers, are well impregnated with silversalts, hence the alternative term for them is argyrophilic fibers

BROWN ADIPOSE TISSUE
Localization: between scapulae, around kidneys and thyroid glandbrown adipose tissue is more widely represented in fetuses, its quantity is
greatly reduced after birth
CELLSbrown adipose cells (brown adipocytes) many small fat droplets are scatteredthroughout the cytoplasm; nucleus and organelles are in the cell center;multiple mitochondria are present the brown color of cells is due tosignificant amounts of iron-containing pigments - cytochromes; in brown
adipocyte mitochondria the free energy released from the oxidation of fattyacids and glucose is not stored in the form of ATP, rather it is dissipated asheat; therefore the function of this tissue is heat production and regulation ofbody's thermal balance there are also small numbers of fibroblasts and othercell types of loose irregular connective tissue

Structure
We know that living organisms can move on their own or can perform othertypes of movement. Muscle tissue has a ability to relax and contrast and sobring about movement and mechanical work in various parts of the body.There are other movements in the body too which are necessary for thesurvival of the organism such as the heart beat and the movements of thealimentary canal.
Muscles can be divided into three main groups according to their structure
Smooth muscle tissue.Skeletal muscle tissue.Cardiac (heart) muscle tissue

Types of Muscle Tissue
Smooth Muscle Tissue
Smooth muscle tissue is made up of thin-elongated musclecells, fibres. These fibres are pointed at their ends and eachhas a single, large, oval nucleus. Each cell is filled witha specialized cytoplasm, the sarcoplasm and is surrounded bya thin cell membrane, thesarcolemma. Each cell has
many myofibrils which lie parallel to one another in thedirection of the long axis of the cell. They are not arranged ina definite striped (striated) pattern, as in skeletal muscles- hence the name smooth muscle . Smooth muscle fibresinterlace to form sheets or layers of muscle tissue ratherthan bundles. Smooth muscle is involuntary tissue, i.e. it is
not controlled by the brain. Smooth muscle forms the musclelayers in the walls of hollow organs such as the digestivetract (lower part of the esophagus, stomach and intestines),the walls of the bladder, the uterus, various ducts ofglands and the walls of blood vessels .

Functions of Smooth Muscle Tissue
Controls slow, involuntary movements suchas the contraction of the smooth muscletissue in the walls of the stomach and
intestines.
The muscle of the arteries contracts and
relaxes to regulate the blood pressure andthe flow of blood.

Skeletal Muscle Tissue
Skeletal muscle is the most abundant tissue in thevertebrate body. These muscles are attached to andbring about the movement of the various bones of theskeleton, hence the name skeletal muscles. The wholemuscle, such as the biceps, is enclosed in a sheath of
connective tissue, the epimysium. This sheath foldsinwards into the substance of the muscle to surround alarge number of smaller bundles, the fasciculi. Thesefasciculi consist of still smaller bundles of elongated,cylindrical muscle cells, the fibres. Each fiber is
a syncytium, i.e. a cell that have many nuclei.The nuclei are oval in shaped and are found at theperiphery of the cell, just beneath the thin, elasticmembrane (sarcolemma).

The sarcoplasm also has many alternating light anddark bands, giving the fibre a striped or striatedappearance (hence the name striated muscle). Withthe aid of an electron microscope it can be seen thateach muscle fibre is made up of many smaller units,
the myofibrils. Each myofibril consists of smallprotein filaments, known asactin and myosinfilaments. The myosin filaments are slightlythicker and make up the dark band (or A-band).

The actin filaments make up the lightbands (I-bands) which are situated oneither side of the dark band. The actinfilaments are attached to the Z-line. Thisarrangement of actin and myosinfilaments is known as a sacromere.During the contraction of skeletal muscle
tissue, the actin filaments slideinwards between the myosin filaments.
Mitochondria provide the energy for this to take place. This action causesh t i f th (Z li l t th ) hi h i t

a shortening of the sacromeres (Z-lines move closer together), which in turncauses the whole muscle fibre to contract. This can bring about a shorteningof the entire muscle such as the biceps, depending on the number of musclesfibres that were stimulated. The contraction of skeletal muscle tissue is
very quick and forceful.
Functions of Skeletal Muscle TissueSkeletal muscles function in pairs to bring about the coordinated movementsof the limbs, trunk, jaws, eyeballs, etc.Skeletal muscles are directly involved in the breathing process.

Cardiac (Heart) Muscle TissueThis is a unique tissue found only in the walls of the heart. Cardiac(Heart) Muscle Tissue shows some of the characteristics of smoothmuscle and some of skeletal muscle tissue. Its fibres , like those ofskeletal muscle, have cross-striations and contain numerous nuclei.However, like smooth muscle tissue, it is involuntary. Cardiacmuscle differ from striated muscle in the following aspects: theyare shorter, the striations are not so obvious, the sarcolemma is
thinner and not clearly discernible, there is only one nucleuspresent in the centre of each cardiac fibre and adjacent fibres branchbut are linked to each other by so-called muscle bridges. The spacesbetween different fibres are filled with areolar connective tissuewhich contains blood capillaries to supply the tissue with the oxygenand nutrients.
Functions of Cardiac (Heart) Muscle TissueCardiac muscle tissue plays the most important role in thecontraction of the atria and ventricles of the heart.It causes the rhythmical beating of the heart, circulating the bloodand its contents throughout the body as a consequence.
