Chapter 1 Flashcards
Tissue composition
Cells and their extracellular matrix
the primary tissue types
epitherlial, connective, muscle, nervous
secondary tissue types of epithelial tissue
- simple squamous
- simple columnar
- simple cuboidal
- transitional
- stratified squamous
- stratified cuboidal
- stratified columnar
- psudostratified
- glandular
secondary tissue types of connective tissue
- connective tissue proper
- cartilage
- bone
- blood
secondary tissue types of muscle tissue
- skeletal
- cardiac
- smooth
secondary tissue types of nervous tissue
- neurons
2. neuroglial
Tertiary tissue types of cartilage (connective - cartilage - xxxxx)
- hyaline
- elastic
- fibro
three main types of sections (tissue sectioning)
- paraffin
- Resin
- Frozen
What is the most common type of sectioning in research
paraffin
paraffin sections involve ______ and takes between ___ and ___ hours to carryout
type of tissue sectioning: wax, 18-24 hours
when wax offers inadequate suppport this type of tissue sectioning is used
What is Resin Sections
The two types of resin sectioning
- Acrylic Resins
2. Epoxy Resins
What is Acrylic Resins
harder than paraffin wax and are used in cuting harder tissues such as fingernails and undecalcified bone and can use a wider range of stains
What is Epoxy Resins (harder than acrylic resins)
harder than __________ and are used in EM (electron microscopy) sections. special glass knives are used to make very thin cuts. Toluidine blue is often the staiin used in these cuts
what is Frozen section
used for urgent intra-op diagnosis. tissue is biopsied/excised sent on ice, snap frozen, cut with cryostat, stained, and diagnosis rendere`d and sent back to OR. takes between 15-30 minutes from biopsy to diagnosis
Wher is simple squamous found
Alveoli, glomeruli, capillaries of blood vessels, lining of blood, lymphatic vessels and heart
Functions: diffusion, filtration and lining (friction reducing)
Function and location of simple cuboidal
Secretion and absorption
Kidney tubules, ducts and secretory portions of small glands and ovary surface
Simple columnar location and function
Non-ciliated type line digestive tract and gall bladder
Absorption mostly
Ciliated type line small bronchi, uterine tubes, and some regions of uterus
