Chapter 4 Test Review Flashcards
Connective
Protection, support, transportation, binding, space filling
Epithelial
Covers body, lines organs, cavities and ducts, forms glands
Muscle
Movement, contraction, elasticity, regulation of openings
Nervous
Communication, integration, conduction, coordination
Stratified
Multiple layers for protection of tissue below
Pseudostratified
Looks stratified but is not
Simple
A single layer for activities like diffusion, osmosis, secretion
Columnar
Tall and cylindrical or rectangular
Cuboidal
Cube shaped
Squamous
Flat
Transnational
Changes shape from cuboidal depending on stretching
Pseudostratified columnar
Not a true stratified; all cells on basement membrane but some do not reach surface of tissue (line upper respiratory passageways)
Simple columnar, ciliated
Line upper respiratory passageways
Simple columnar, nonciliated
Lines the inner surface of the stomach and intestine
Simple cuboidal
Single layer of cube shaped cells; found in kidney tubules
Simple squamous
Lines air sac of lungs, where thin cells are required for diffusion
Stratified squamous
Lines mouth; present on outer surface of skin
Transitional
Lines urinary tract, as in bladder, permitting distention
Areolar Loose CT
Connects skin to muscle, found around organs
Reticular Loose CT
Binding tissue that forms framework for liver and spleen
Dense regular CT
Dense CT that forms tendons and ligaments
Dense irregular CT
Part of dermis, forms membranes around bone
Elastic dense CT
In lung tissue, allows stretching
Hyaline cartilage
Covers end of bones, also in nose
Fibrocartilage
Forms intervertebral discus, meniscus of knee
