Body Tissues

Question 1

Tissues

Answer 1

groups of cells that are similar in structure and perform common function

Question 2

FOUR Types Of Tissues

Answer 2

CONNECTIVE TISSUE

MUSCLE TISSUE

EPITHELIAL TISSUE

NERVOUS TISSUE

Question 3

EPITHELIAL TISSUE

*epithelial tissue= glands*

Answer 3

associated with body covering (skin) and body lining (of bladder or stomach)

Question 4

HISTOLOGY

Answer 4

the study of tissues

Question 5

FUNCTION OF EPITHELIAL TISSUE

Answer 5

1. protect
2. absorbtion
3. filtration
4. secretion

Question 6

CLASSIFICATION OF EPITHELIUM

Answer 6

number of layers and the shape of the cells

Question 7

number of layers in the epithelium tissue

Answer 7

there are 2 layers.

1st layer= simple ; used for absorption, filtration and secretion

2nd layer= stratified ; used for protection

Question 8

shape of epithelium tissue

Answer 8

squamous - flattened

cuboidal - cube shaped

columnar - column like

Question 9

mucosae

Answer 9

lines all body cavities that open to body surface and they are often adapted for absorption or secretion.

* 1st layer epithelial tissue*

1. respiratory (nose and trachea)
2. digestive
3. urogenital (genital and urinary opening)

Question 10

gland

Answer 10

consists of cells that make and transport a particular product/secretion

Question 11

TWO TYPES OF GLANDULAR EPITHELIA

Answer 11

1. endocrine glands
2. exocrine glands

Question 12

endocrine gland

Answer 12

internal secreting

ductless

hormones

Question 13

exocrine gland

Answer 13

external secreting and internal secreting

ducted

produce non-hormone products

(sweat, oil, milk)

there is unicellular glands and multicellular gland

Question 14

unicellular exocrine glands

Answer 14

*globlet cells- make proteins*

located in the epithelial linings of intestinal and respiratory tract

produces and secretes mucin which forms mucus

Question 15

multicellular cellular exocine glands

Answer 15

two parts which are the epithelium and secretory cell

1. epithelium-
   - derived duct
2. secretory cells
   - makes enzymes for specific glands
   - release exocrine glands by mitosis (holocrine products go with it)
   - merocine
   - apocrine

Question 16

merocine

Answer 16

product makes glands and some go with it

Question 17

apocrine

Answer 17

pieces pinched off apical portion of cell

Question 18

FUNCTION OF CONNECTIVE TISSUES

Answer 18

binds tissues together, offers support, acts as protective barrier, absorb water and its also a water reservior.

four types of tissues:

1. connective tissue proper (tendents and ligaments)
2. catilage (elestic cartilage)
3. blood (RBC- only fluid tissue in body)
4. bone

Question 19

poor blood supply =

Answer 19

avascular

Question 20

some variations of blood supply are well…

Answer 20

vascularized

Question 21

two basic compontents of connective tissue

Answer 21

1. living
2. non living (extracellular matix)

Question 22

extracellular matrix

Answer 22

1. ground substance - are composed of water proteins and polysacharride
2. fibers
