cell types and modifications Flashcards
animal tissue divided into four types
epithelial tissues
connective tissues
muscle tissue
nervous tissue
commonly seen outside as coverings linings organs and cavities
epithelial tissue
for secretion
cuboidal
brick shaped cells, for secretion and active absorption
simple columnar
plate like cells for exchange of material through diffusion
simple squamous
multi layered and regenerate quickly for protection
stratified squamous
single layered but may look like its stacked bc of varying height
for lining and respiratory tract
pseudo stratified columnar
composed of blood, connective tissue proper, bone, cartilage
connective tissue
made up of plasma. carry oxygen (red blood cell), leukocytes for defense (white blood cell) and platelets for blood clotting
blood
made up of loose connective tissues that is found in the skin and fibrous connective tissue
connective tissue proper
example of loose connective tissues that stores for which functions to insulate the body
adipose tissue
characterized by collagenous fibers imbedded in chondroitin sulfate
cartilage
cells that secretes collagen/chondroitin
chondrocytes
functions of cartilage
cushion between bonesmin
mineralized connective tissue
bones
bone forming cells
osteoblast
blood and nerve are found at central canal surrounded by concentric circles of
osteon
responsible for movement
muscle tissue
formed during embryonic development via the process of
myogenisis
striated; voluntary movements attached to the skeleton
skeletal
striated; for synchronized heart contraction, involuntary located in the walls of the heart
cardiac
not straited; involuntary located in walls of hallow visceral organs
smooth
