What is cartilage? Cartilage is a strong, flexible connective tissue that protects your joints and bones. It acts as a shock absorber throughout your body. Cartilage at the end of your bones reduces friction and prevents them from rubbing together when you use your joints
n biology, the smallest unit that can live on its own and that makes up all living organisms and the tissues of the body. A cell has three main parts: the cell membrane, the nucleus, and the cytoplasm. The cell membrane surrounds the cell and controls the substances that go into and out of the cell.
The thyroid, or thyroid gland, is an endocrine gland in vertebrates. In humans, it is in the neck and consists of two connected lobes. The lower two thirds of the lobes are connected by a thin band of tissue called the isthmus. The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck below the Adam's apple. Microscopically, the functional unit of the thyroid gland is the spherical thyroid follicle, lined with follicular cells (thyrocytes), and occasional parafollicular cells that surround a lumen containing colloid. The thyroid gland secretes three hormones: the two thyroid hormones – triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) – and a peptide hormone, calcitonin. The thyroid hormones influence the metabolic rate and protein synthesis and growth and development in children. Calcitonin plays a role in calcium homeostasis.[1] Secretion of the two thyroid hormones is regulated by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which is secreted from the anterior pituitary gland. TSH is regulated by thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH), which is produced by the hypothalamus.[2]
Thyroid disorders include hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, thyroid inflammation (thyroiditis), thyroid enlargement (goitre), thyroid nodules, and thyroid cancer. Hyperthyroidism is characterized by excessive secretion of thyroid hormones: the most common cause is the autoimmune disorder Graves' disease. Hypothyroidism is characterized by a deficient secretion of thyroid hormones: the most common cause is iodine deficiency. In iodine-deficient regions, hypothyroidism secondary to iodine deficiency is the leading cause of preventable intellectual disability in children.[3] In iodine-sufficient regions, the most common cause of hypothyroidism is the autoimmune disorder Hashimoto's thyroiditis.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Unit 8 - Information and Communication Technology (Paper I).pdfThiyagu K
This slides describes the basic concepts of ICT, basics of Email, Emerging Technology and Digital Initiatives in Education. This presentations aligns with the UGC Paper I syllabus.
1. Cells to Tissues
• As human body develops from single to
multicellular, cells specialize.
• Body is interdependent system,
malfunction of one group of cells is
catastrophic.
• Cells specialize into types of tissues, then
interspersed into organs.
2. Tissues = groups of cells that are similar in
structure and function.
• Epithelium
– Coverings
– Linings of surfaces
• Connective
– Support
– Bone, ligaments, fat
• Muscle
– Movement
• Nervous
– Control
– Brain, nerves, spinal
cord
4. Function of Epithelial Tissue
• Protection
– Skin protects from sunlight & bacteria & physical damage.
• Absorption
– Lining of small intestine, absorbing nutrients into blood
• Filtration
– Lining of Kidney tubules filtering wastes from blood plasma
• Secretion
– Different glands produce perspiration, oil, digestive
enzymes and mucus
5. Characteristics of Epithelial Tissue
• Form continuous sheets (fit like tiles)
• Apical Surface
– All epithelial cells have a top surface that borders
an open space – known as a lumen
• Basement Membrane
– Underside of all epithelial cells which anchors
them to connective tissue
• Avascularity (a = without)
– Lacks blood vessels
– Nourished by connective tissue
• Regenerate & repair quickly
6. Classification of Epithelial
Tissue
• Cell Shape
– Squamous – flattened like fish
scales
– Cuboidal - cubes
– Columnar - columns
• Cell Layers
– Simple (one layer)
– Stratified (many layers)
• Named for the type of cell at the
apical surface.
7. Simple Squamous Epithelium
• Structure
– Single Layer of flattened cells
• Function
– Absorption, and filtration
– Not effective protection – single layer of cells.
• Location
– Walls of capillaries, air sacs in lungs
– Form serous membranes in body cavity
8.
9. Simple Cuboidal Epithelium
• Structure
– Single layer of cube shaped cells
• Function
– Secretion and transportation in glands, filtration in
kidneys
• Location
– Glands and ducts (pancreas & salivary), kidney
tubules, covers ovaries
10.
11. Simple Columnar Epithelium
• Structure
– Elongated layer of cells with nuclei at same level
• Function
– Absorption, Protection & Secretion
– When open to body cavities – called mucous membranes
• Special Features
– Microvilli, bumpy extension of apical surface, increase
surface area and absorption rate.
– Goblet cells, single cell glands, produce protective mucus.
• Location
– Linings of entire digestive tract
12.
13. Pseudostratified Epithelium
• Structure
– Irregularly shaped cells with nuclei at different
levels – appear stratified, but aren’t.
– All cells reach basement membrane
• Function
– Absorption and Secretion
– Goblet cells produce mucus
– Cilia (larger than microvilli) sweep mucus
• Location
– Respiratory Linings & Reproductive tract
15. Stratified Squamous Epithelium
• Structure
– Many layers (usually cubodial/columnar at bottom
and squamous at top)
• Function
– Protection
– Keratin (protein) is accumulated in older cells near
the surface – waterproofs and toughens skin.
• Location
– Skin (keratinized), mouth & throat
17. Transitional Epithelium
• Structure
– Many layers
– Very specialized – cells at base are cuboidal or
columnar, at surface will vary.
– Change between stratified & simple as tissue is
stretched out.
• Function
– Allows stretching (change size)
• Location
– Urinary bladder, ureters & urethra
18.
19. Glands
• One or more cells that make and secrete a product.
• Secretion = protein in aqueous solution: hormones,
acids, oils.
• Endocrine glands
– No duct, release secretion into blood vessels
– Often hormones
– Thyroid, adrenal and pituitary glands
• Exocrine glands
– Contain ducts, empty onto epithelial surface
– Sweat, Oil glands, Salivary glands, Mammary glands.
20. Shapes of Exocrine glands
Branching
Simple – single, unbranched duct
Compound – branched.
Shape: tubular or alveolar
Tubular – shaped like a tube
Alveolar – shaped like flasks or sacs
Tubuloalveolar – has both tubes and sacs in
gland
21.
22. Modes of Secretion
• (How the gland’s product is released)
• Merocrine
– Just released by exocytosis without altering the
gland at all.
– Ex: Sweat glands and salivary glands
• Holocrine
– The gland ruptures and releases secretion and
dead cells as well.
– Sebaceous (oil glands on the face) only example
