the study of tissues is?
Histology
what are the four types of tissues?
Epithelial tissue
Connective tissue
Muscle tissue
Nervous tissue
what is epithelial tissue ?
The sheets of cells that cover exterior surfaces of the body they line internal cavities and passageways And forms certain glands
ex. skin surfaces & hollow organs
what is connective tissue?
Binds the cells and organs of the body together and function in protection, Support, and transportation
ex. bone, tendons, and fat
muscle tissue?
Excitable, respond to stimulation and contract to cause movenment
ex. cardiac, smooth & skeletal muscle
what is nervous tissue?
excitable, carry electrochemical signals in the form of nerve impulses that communicate between different regions of the body
ex. brain, spinal cords, nerves
a single cell formed by the fushion of a egg and sperm
Eggsperm
zygote
the first embryonic cells are _ meaning each one has the capacity to divid, differentiate, and develop to make new organisms
Totipotent
Ectoderm

Ecto = out
consists of skin cells, neurons, and pigment cells
Mesoderm
meso =
comsists of?
Meso = middle
Consist of cardiac muscle, kidney, skeletal and smooth muscle, and red blood cells
Endoderm
endo =

A thin layer or sheet of cells that cover the outside of the body is?
tissue membrane
what is composed of connective and epithelial, tissues line the digestive, respiratory, urinary, and reproductive system?
mucous membrane
A epithelial membrane composed of mesodermally derived epithelium called Mesothelium that is supported by connected tissue. lines The body cavity closer to the exterior of the body is?
Serous membrane
what covers the body surface?
the skin
Cutaneous
what is formed solely from connective tissue Encapsulate organs, such as kidneys in line Movable joints
connective tissue membrane
a type of CT membrane that lines, the county of a freely movable joint?
Synovial membrane
-covers all the surfaces of the body exposed to the outside world
-lines the outside and inside of oranges
-Form glands
epithelial tissue
an epithelium that lines, hollow organs and body cavity that do not connect to the external environment?
endothelium
epithelial tissue characteristics
cells that are tightly bound together with a little extra cellular matrix
higher cellular
epithelial tissue characteristics
specialized intracellular connection between the plasma membrane and adjoining cells
cell junctions
epithelial tissue characteristic
expose apical surface and attached basal surface
polar
epithelial tissue characteristics
The base of an epithelium is bound to a basement membrane
attachment
epithelial tissue characteristics
do not have blood vessels rely on decision from tissues
avascular
epithelial tissue characteristics
A higher rate of cell replacement by stem cell
regeneration
-bodies first line of defense from chemical, physical, and biological wear and tear
-Control, permeability and allowing selective transfer of materials Across a physical barrier
-Secretion of mucus and specific chemical compounds onto their Apical surface is (secrete = release)
functions of epithelial tissue
cell to cell junctions
-no extra cellular space between the ages of cells, passage between cells is blocked
-enables the epithelium to act as a selective barrier
tight junction
cell to cell junctions
-Channel proteins of adjacent cells line up
-Allows the movement of small molecules and ions from one cell to another
-Coordinate function in large group of cells
Gap junctions
cell to cell junctions
-Desmosomes
-hemidesmosomes
-Adherens
anchoring junctions
attach cytoskeleton of adjecent cells
desmosomes
attach a cell’s cytoskeleton to basement membrane
Hemidesmosomes
another junctions
Adherens
secrete hormones into surrounding tissues to be picked up by the blood stream
anterior pituitary and thymus
Endocrine glands
releases substance through ducts on body surfaces
Exocrine glands
vesicles filled with the secretion or release through exocytosis at the surface and cell remains intact
saliva gland
Merocrine secretion
The vesicles gather at the apical surface. The apical portion of the cell is released along the vesicles, but the cell remains intact.
mammary gland
Apocrine secretion
The entire cell Ruptures to release this product, and the cell itself mobilebecomes part of the secretion
Holocrine secretion
-most Diverse, about it, and wisely distributed of tissues
-Support, protects, and binds organs
-call cells, protein, fibers, and ground substanceRe
Connective tissue
Surrounds the cell
can be fluid plasma of blood or mineralized and solid bone
ground substances
fibers and ground substances make up?
extracellular matrix
-support and connect other tissues * tendons, and ligaments
-Protection * bones & adipose tissue (fat)
-Defense * white blood cells
-Transport * blood and lymph
-Stores, fat for energy and instaulation *adipose tissue (fat)
connective tissue functions
-first type of connective tissue and I developing embryo
-Source of all other connective tissue cells
-Adult CT often has _ stem cells to allow tissue repair
Mesenchyme
connective tissue proper - cells
The most abundant cells secrete fibrous matrix
Fibroblast
connective tissue proper-cells
cells that store lipids
Adipocytes
connective tissue proper - cells
adult stem cells can differentiate into any type of connective tissue cells needed for repair of damaged tissue
Mesenchymal cell
Connective tissue proper - cells
large cells enters the connective tissue matrix from blood vessels
* component of the immune system
* Ingulfs infectious agents & cellular
Macrophage
release the chemicals, histamine and heparin
* component of the immune system
* Stimulate an inflammatory response
Mast cell
connective tissue proper - protein
Long, straight fibers, have a great tensile strength ( won’t break under tension ) resist, stretching, and giving ligaments and tendons, the characteristics, resilience and strength
collagen fibers
Connective tissue proper - protein fibers
A branching net work of fibers, abundant in the reticular tissue of the liver and spleen
reticular fibers
connective tissue proper - protein fibers
contains the protein elastin, after being stretched or compressed, it will return to its original shape
elastic fibers
connective tissue is divided into?
connective tissue – loose
Connective tissue – dense
- areolar CT
- adipose CT
- reticular CT
connective tissue loose
- regular dense CT
- irregular dense CT
connective tissue dense
- Compact bone tissue
- cancellous bone tissue
- hayaline cartilage

- elastic Cartilage
supporting connective tissue
- blood
- lymph
fluid connective tissue
what tissue is excitable ( response to stimulus ) and contractile ( generate a pulling force )
muscle tissue
muscle cells are also called?
myocyte
-makes up 40% of your body mass
-Attached to bones
-Allow for locomotion, facial expressions, poster
-Cells are called fibers
Skeletal muscle
… of skeletal muscle develop from Myoblasts derived from the mesoderm the … fuse together with other … to form multinucleated cells
Myocytes
-forms the inner walls of the heart
-Cells are called cardiomyocyte
Cardiac muscle

intercalated discs
found within the walls of hollow organs

smooth muscle
located in the neurons, neurogila
nervous tissue
excitable, initiate and transmit electrochemical signals
neurons
what are the three main parts of a neuron
- cell body ( soma )

- Axon
what includes most of the cytoplasm, the organelles, and the nucleus

```
branch off the cell body and appear as thin extension
function - receive incoming action potentials
Dendrites
what is a single, long extension form of the cell body
function - transmits, outgoing, action, potentials
Axon
- scattered around the neurons
- do not transmit action potential
- Responsible for Support and function of neurons
