ANIMAL TISSUE Flashcards
TYPES OF TISSUES
epithelial
connective
muscle
nervous
type of tissue that covers outside of the body and lines organs within the body
EPITHELIAL TISSUE
true or false:
basement membrane does not separate epithelial tissue from underlying adjacent tissues.
FALSE - SINESEPARATE
true and false:
epithelial tissue can only be classified in 1 way only; according to its shape.
FALSE - STRATA & SHAPE
tissue that connects the whole body/ supports other tissues?
CONNECTIVE TISSUES
type of connective tissue that binds epithelia to underlying tissues & holds organs in place; also called ‘areolar ct’
LOOSE CONNECTIVE TISSUE
a strong & flexible support material
CARTILAGE
type of cartilage that support & cushion; found at the end of long bones
LOCATION: cartilage of nose, larynx, trachea
HYALINE CARTILAGE
type of cartilage that absorbs compressive shock; found in vertebral column
FIBROCARTILAGE
it is a cartilage that maintains shape & flexibility that is found in the ear
ELASTIC CARTILAGE
where is fibrous connective tissue located?
found in tendons; irregular arranged which can be found in the body where stress occurs.
what is the type of tissue that stores fat for insulation & fuel?
ADIPOSE TISSUE
adipose consists of…?
adipocytes
common type of adipocytes that provide insulation and stores for starvation.
WHITE ADIPOCYTES
mainly found in newborn animals; acts as heat & consumes energy which is common in hibernating species for survival. What type of adipocytes is this?
BROWN ADIPOSE TISSUE
type of adipose that dispersed
within white fat tissue sometimes
generate heat
BEIGE ADIPOSE TISSUE
blood cells & cell
fragments in blood plasma transports oxygen
BLOOD
also known as red blood cells; responsible for transporting oxygen to
body tissues.
ERYTHROCYTES
other term for thrombocytes; leading
up to coagulation of the blood.
PLATELETS
leukocytes is also known as? it is involved in defending the body against pathogens
and foreign bodies
WHITE BLOOD CELLS
how many types of white blood cells?
4
neutrophils is a type of white blood cell that participate in early lines of defense against pathogens. True or false?
TRUE
a white blood cell that responsible in facilitating inflammatory response
Eosinophils and basophils-
true or false:
monocytes facilitates in disposal of
dead and damaged cells in the body
TRUE
white blood cell that determines the specificity of response
LYMPHOCYTES
it forms the skeleton
BONE
hard & rigid tissue that forms the bones of our body; protects, supports & provide lever system for muscles to act on, stores calcium and fat, and forms blood cells.
OSSEOUS TISSUE
OSTEON
central canals; surrounding bony layers
found in compact bone
small canals or ducts in bones
CANALICUS
type of bone cell that is active making bone for growth & remodeling.
OSTEOBLASTS
bone cell that is found in lacunae that assist in maintenance of the bone
OSTEOCYTES
bone cell that is active in breaking down bone
for bone
remodeling, providing access to calcium, stored
in tissues to release it into the blood.
OSTEOCLASTS
tissue that is responsible for movement that has muscle fibers which contract in response to nerve signals.
MUSCLE TISSUES
what are the 3 types of muscle tissues?
skeletal
cardiac
smooth
muscle tissue that is attached to bones & responsible for movement
SKELETAL MUSCLE
muscle tissue that is responsible for contraction of heart; found in walls of the heart
CARDIAC MUSCLE
true or false:
smooth muscle is responsible for involuntary body activities
SMOOTH MUSCLE
it controls the body as they generally function to transmit electrical signals.
NERVOUS TISSUE
it transmit nerve impulses
NEURONS
it helps nourish, insulate, & replenish neurons
GLIA/ GLIAL CELLS
