Chapter 1 Part 3 Flashcards
Type of tissue that lines major body cavities, organs, and skin; acts as a barrier
Epithelial tissue
Membrane that acts like a filter or stabilizes epithelium
Basement membrane
Material that holds or constrains another material
Matrix
Space or gap in tissue
Interstitial
Tissue that binds structures together and that may contain combinations of fiber types
Fibrous tissue
Connective tissue that is strong and dense, providing the means for binding structures of the body
White fibrous tissue
Connective fibers containing collagen
Collagenous fibers
Extremely fine connective fibers
Reticular fibers
Connective fibers that contain collagen that provides cushioning for structures
Fibrocartilage
Cartilaginous connective tissue that has reduced collagen and a increased number of elastic fibers
Yellow (elastic) cartilage
Lines blood vessels, heart alveoli, lymphatic vessels
Simple squamous
Secretory function in glands such as thyroid
Simple cuboidal
Lines inner stomach, intestins, gallbladder and bile ducts
Simple columnar
Lines nasal cavity, larynx, trachea, and bronchi
Ciliated epithelium
Lines epidermis of skin, mouth, pharynx, esophagus
Compound striated
Lines bladder
Transitional epithelium
Elastic, supports organs, between muscles
Areolar connective tissue
Cells with fat globules
Adipose connective
Strong, closely packed, ligament binding of bones and covers fascia over bone or muscle
White fibrous connective tissue
Make up lymphoid tissue of tonsils, adenoids
Lymphoid connective
Found on articulating surfaces of bone, costal cartilage of ribs, larynx, trachea, and bronchial passageway
Hyaline cartilage
Striated voluntary muscle
Skeletal muscle
Muscles of internal organs, involuntary
Smooth muscle
Combination of striated and smooth muscle, involuntary
Cardiac muscle
Communicating tissue
Neurons
Support neurons, creates blood brain barrier
Neurolgia cells
