Updated 2026
SAD (tissue types and function) secretion: cuboidal (lens epithelium)
absorption: columnar (respiratory cells)
diffusion: squamous
HAM (exocrine glands) holocrine: meibomian glands & gland of
zeiss
apocrine: gland of moll & goblet cells
merocrine: main lacrimal gland and
accessory
lacrimal glands
Salt, Sugar, Sex (what gland and aldosterone, cortisol, androgen
type adrenal gland of endocrine system
of system)
Go Fast Reggie (adrenal gland) Zonular Glomerulosa, Zonular Fasciculata,
Zonula
Reticularis
PIG on acid prolactin and growth hormone
anterior pituitary (acidophils/alpha cells)
FLAT base FSH, LH, ACTH, TSH
anterior pituitary (basophils/beta cells)
,Never Let Monkeys Eat Bananas Neutrophils (most common, Lymphocytes,
Monocytes, Eosinophils, Basophils (least
common)
Can Lucy Give Some Blood Stratum Corneum (most anterior), Stratum
Lucidum
, Stratum Granulosum, Stratum Spinosum,
Stratum
Basal * most posterior)
DEAK fat soluble vitamins; d is most dangerous,
e is least
dangerous, a is epithelial regeneration, k
blood
clotting
Giver Her a CAB Ride Man Order by which retinal layers develop
following
RPE:
Ganglion, Horizonta, Cones, Amacrine,
Bipolar,
Rods, Muller
TONS of movement Temporal to nasal OKN in infants age
3-5months
will be normal but nasal to temporal OKN
will be
abnormal
, Explain Michaelis Mentin Equation Vo = rate of reaction, Vmax = maximum
rate of
reaction, Km = concentration of substrate
when
rate of reaction reaches 50% of
max/enzyme
affinity
Vo = Km [s]/Vmax [s]
Describe LIneweaver Burk plot Competitive = Km will increase to
and overpower
Michaelis Mentin in presence of competitor while Vmax remains same; plot
competitive inhibitor and moves
noncompetitive inhibitor to right
Non-competitive = Km remains same as
substrate is
binding to allosteric site and not active site
but has
less velocity so vmax decreases; plot
moves up
Gibbs free energy free energy (G) = enthalpy (- is exothermic
+ is
endothermic) - temperature (T) x entropy
(S) or
randomness
MLS (major league soccer) disaccharides = maltose, lactose, sucrose
Liver LAG Lactate, Amino Acids and Glycerol are
components
liver can use to produce glucose through
gluconeogenesis
