objective lens produces a better image. INTRODUCTION Internal structure of animal is made up cells. Cells aggregate and forms tissue. Animal tissues are classified into four types on the basis of their functions – epithelial tissue‚ connective tissue‚ muscle tissue and nervous tissue. EPITHELIAL TISSUE The covering and protective tissues in the animal body are epithelial tissues. It covers most organs and cavities within the body and forms a barrier to keep different body systems separate. Example: Skin

Week 1 Chapter 1 1. What is the basic difference between anatomy and physiology? (p. 2) ANSWER: Anatomy (a-NAT-ō-mē; ana- = up; -tomy = process of cutting) is the science of structure and the relationships among structures. Physiology (fiz′-ē-OL-ō-jē; physio- = nature‚ -logy = study of) is the science of body functions‚ that is‚ how the body parts work. 2. Define each of the following terms: atom‚ molecule‚ cell‚ tissue‚ organ‚ system‚ and organism. (p. 6) ANSWER: AtomUnit of matter that makes

2. FLNB in Skeletal Diseases Mutations in FLNB lead to various skeletal malformations‚ involving long bone‚ joints and vertebra. There were five FLNB-related skeletal disorders been reported so far‚ including spondylocarpotarsal synostosis (SCT)‚ Larsen syndrome‚ atelosteogenesis (AO)‚ boomerang dysplasia‚ and isolated congenital talipes equinovarus. (1) Spondylocarpotarsal synostosis syndrome (SCT‚ OMIM 272460) Spondylocarpotarsal synostosis syndrome was characterized by the following features:

in the muscles of his limbs. The cramping made his muscles feel like hard knots. The foreman of the crew instructed the young man to drink some salt water he had available and rest a while. 1. What is the cause of the cramping? (2 points) The man was doing hard work in intense heat. This caused him to sweat‚ taking sodium out of his body. Sodium is needed to control muscle contraction. Without the necessary amount of sodium‚ the nervous system isn’t able to send messages to the muscles and calcium

by a large working knowledge of many subjects. The structure of a robot is mostly mechanical and can be called a kinematic chain. This is functionality being similar to the skeleton of the human body‚ so “The chain is formed of its bones‚ muscles and joints which can allow one or more degrees of freedom” (Smith16). Scientists develop man-made mechanical devices that can move by themselves‚ whose motion must be modeled‚ lanned‚ sensed‚ actuated and controlled‚ and whose motion behavior
