Cells and Tissues

The human body is comprised of cells, tissues and organs within complex systems that work together to maintain life

Cell organelles maintain life processes and require the input of materials and the removal of wastes to support efficient functioning of the cell

Cell membrane & movement of materials:

The cell membrane separates the cell from its surrounding with a structure, describes by the fluid mosaic model, which allows for the movement of materials into and out of the cell by;

o Diffusion o Facilitated diffusion o Osmosis o Active transport o Vesicular transport (endocytosis and exocytosis)

Metabolism (Use week 3 to intro enzymes as in task 1)

biochemical processes, including anabolic and catabolic reactions in the cell, are controlled in the presence of specific enzymes

cellular respiration occurs, in different locations in the cytosol and mitochondria, to catabolise organic compounds, aerobically or anaerobically, to release energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

for efficient metabolism, cells require oxygen and nutrients, including carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins and minerals

the supply of nutrients in a form that can be used in cells is facilitated by the structure and function of the digestive system at the cell, tissue and organ levels

Digestion involves the breakdown of large molecules to smaller ones by mechanical digestion (teeth, bile and peristalsis) and chemical digestion (by enzymes with distinctive operating conditions and functions that are located in different section of the digestive system)

the salivary glands, pancreas, liver and gall bladder produce or store secretions which aid the processes of digestion

Excretory System

the excretory system regulates the chemical composition of body fluids by removing metabolic wastes and retaining the proper amounts of water, salts, and nutrients; components of this system include the kidneys, liver, lungs, and skin functioning at the organ level

deamination of amino acids in the liver produces urea, which then is transported to the kidneys for removal

the nephrons in the kidney facilitate three basic processes: filtration, reabsorption and secretion during urine formation to maintain the composition of body fluids (hormone control is not required)

DNA

DNA occurs bound to proteins in chromosomes in the nucleus and as unbound DNA in the mitochondrion

DNA stores the information for the production of protein that determines the structure and function of the cells

The structural properties of the helical DNA molecule, include double stranded, nucleotide composition and weak bonds involved in base pairing between the complementary strands, allow for its replication.

Cell Reproduction

Mitosis forms part of the cell cycle producing new cells with the same genetic content

The sequence of DNA replication, chromosome duplication and chromosome separation are important processes in the production of identical daughter cells by mitosis for growth, repair and replacement of tissues within the body

Uncontrolled division of cells can result in the development of a tumour

Stem cells have the ability to divide by mitosis and differentiate into many different tissues, depending on the level of cell potency.
