Chapter 4: Tissues Flashcards
Epithelial Tissue: located in kidney tubules, ducts and secretory portions of small glands; ovary surface (secretes eggs)
simple cuboidal epithelial
Epithelial Tissue: 1 layer, tall cell, with oval nuclei at the bottom
simple columnar epithelial
Epithelial Tissue: Thicker than simple squamous, and cuboidal
columnar
Epithelial Tissue: This tissue unlike cuboidal has cilia which helps to propel mucus by ciliary action
simple columnar epithelial
Epithelial Tissue: located in digestive tract- when chewing there is saliva present to lubricate the food and once it gets to the esophagus epithelial tissue secretes mucus to move food down the esophagus ; ciliated types lines small bronchi which secretes a mucus that catches all bacteria and the cilia move it along and remove from the body via the digestive system; uterine tubes; and uterus
simple columnar epithelial
Epithelial Tissue: single layer of cells of differing heights; nuclei seen at different levels; alternating nuclei
pseudostratifed epithelium
Epithelial Tissue: always has cilia and functions in secretion and propulsion of mucus
pseudostratifed epithelium
Epithelial Tissue: located in trachea and upper respiratory tract; ducts containing sperm
pseudostratified epithelium
Epithelial Tissue: resembles both stratified squamous and cuboidal… basal-cuboidal, surface- dome shaped
translational epithelium
Epithelial Tissue: located in ureters and urinary bladder
translational epithelium
Epithelial Tissue: function- stretchy
translational epithelium
Epithelial Tissue: many layers, really thick, surface cells are squamous and basal cells are cuboidal and columnar
stratified squamous epithelial
Epithelial Tissue: protection of underlying tissue areas subject to abrasion
stratified squamous epithelial
Epithelial Tissue: non-keratinized is located in esophagus, mouth, vagina; keratinized is located epidermis of skin
stratified squamous epithelial
Functions of epithelial tissue:
Absorption, filtration, secretion, excretion, protection, and sensory reception
