23
Q

Stratified columnar (rare)

A

multiple layers of tall cells
functions: protection
locations: ducts of some glands

24
Q

Psuedostratisfied ciliated columnar

A

single layer of tall cells that appear multi layered
cells have cillia
Usually has goblet cells

functions: secretion, protection
locations: nasal cavity, trachea, bronchi

25
Q

Glandular epithelium

A

forms the glands
secretes

26
Q

Types of glands

A

endocrine
exocrine

27
Q

Exorine gland

A

has a duct that releases its secretions onto epithelial surface

28
Q

Endocrine gland

A

does not have ducts
releases secretion (hormones) into the blood

29
Q

What are exocrine glands based on?

A

Type of secretion
Mode of secretion
Structure of the gland

30
Q

Types of secretion

A

Serous- watery secretion (ex. saliva)
Mucous- viscous secretion (ex. earwax)
Mixed- watery and viscous secretion (ex. breast milk)

31
Q

Mode of secretion
(How they release secretion)

A

Merocrine- via exocytosis
Apocrine- top 1/2 of cells fills with secrottory vesicles-> breaks off-> regenerates new 1/2 (REPEATS)
Holocrine- cell fills with secretory vesicles and ruptures (lysis) everything releases

32
Q

Structure of the glands

A

unicellular- a single cell (ex. goblet cell)

multicellular:
simple- unbranched (single) duct
compound- branched (multiple) duct

33
Q

Connective tissue

A

largest tissue
supports, binds, connects, or separates other tissues and or organs

34
Q

Connective Tissue Characteristics

A

not exposed
cells are spaced apart
area between cells is filled with matrix
variety of cells
vascular (except cartilage)

35
Q

Matrix

A

ground substance
protein fibers

36
Q

Ground substance

A

H2O-> liquid
hyaluronic acid-> slimey
chondoitin sulfacte-> rubbery
mineral salts-> solid

37
Q

Protein fibers

A

Collagen-> strung and flexible (thick)
elastic-> stretch and recoil
reticular-> provides physical support (thin)

38
Q

Variety of cells

A

_blasts
_cyte

39
Q

blasts

A

immature cell,
makes up part of the matrix

40
Q

cyte

A

mature cell,
maintains the matrix

41
