study of FUNCTION of the PARTS OF THE BODY
Physiology
4 subdiscipline of physiology

Electrophysiology
What adapts to survive the environment
Cells
Tissue that is SIMPLE-shaped and is responsible for protection, covering the tissues underneath it
Epithelial Tissue
Tissue that is FLAT and is responsible for covering of MESOTHELIUM, OUTER & INNER LININGS of the body for cavities
Simple Squamous Epithelia
Tissue is RECTANGULAR in shape has villi and apical surface and is found more on the BASEMENT MEMBRANE and is responsible for ABSORPTION, SECRETION.
Simple Columnar Epithelia
This tissue changes shaped depending if it is empty or filled.
if empty: cuboidal - colimnar
if filled: squamous
Transitional Epithelium
This tissue has cilia and is attached to the basement membrane and look stratified because its nuclei can be found near the base and apical surface but is actually one layer.
Ciliated Pseudostratified Epithelium
This tissue is made mostly of COLLAGENOUS fibers, ELASTIC fibers and RETICULAR fibers (modified collagen fibers) and is responsible for support, site for rbc and wbc synthesis
Loose Connective Tissue
This tissue is made up of PARALLEL bundles of COLLAGEN FIBERS
Fibrous Connective Tissue
This is an IMMATURE type of fiber
Fibroblast
This tissue is NOT MINERALED and has NO CALCIUM. It’s chondrocytes are found on the lucanae
Cartillage
This tissue is MINERALIZED and CALCIFIED. It has a central canal and osteon
Bone
