The term used to describe all the chemical reactions that occur in body cells. May be called body chemistry | metabolism |
a small network located deep inside the cytoplasm. consists of a network of membranous-walled canals and flat, curving sacs that are arranged in roughly parallel sheets | endoplasmic reticulum (ER) |
protein-destroying organelle in the cell, a hollow, cylindrical “drum” made up of protein subunit, responsible for breaking down abnormal and misfolded proteins released from the ER, | Proteasomes |
The name of the process of blood cell formation | Hematopoiesis |

Another name for red bone marrow: a type of reticular tissue that contains the stem cells responsible for producing the various types of blood cells | Myeloid tissue |
can vary in length, long straplike, parallel fascicles, perhaps most typical type of muscle | parallel muscles |
have fascicles that radiate out from a small to a wider point of attachment, like the blades in a fan. eg. pectoralis major muscle | Convergent muscles |
“featherlike” in appearance, numerous interconnecting quill-like fascicles converge on a common point of attachment. Three categories: Unipennate muscles, Bipennate muscles, multipennate muscles | Pennate muscles |
have fascicles that may be close to paral-lel in the center, or “belly,” of the muscle but converge to a tendon at one or both ends | Fusiform muscles |
