Q

Epithelia has a nerve supply

True or False

A

True

19
Q

Pseudostratified epithelium is technically classified as a simple epithelium because all it’s cells rest on the basement

True or False

A

True

20
Q

What cells do change shape, form flat to cuboidal and back, as organs such as the urinary bladder stretch to a larger size an then collapse to a smaller size

A

Transitional cells

21
Q

What epithelium is owing to specific locations where it is found, simple squamous epithelium that lines the heart, blood vessels, and lymphatic vessels?

A

Endothelium

22
Q

What epithelium forms the epithelial layer of serous membrane’s, such as the peritoneum, pleura, or pericardium?

A

Mesothelium

23
Q

Which cells are modified columnar cells that secrete mucus, a slightly sticky fluid, at the apical surfaces?

A

Goblet cells

24
Q

Because if it’s elasticity, this lines hollow structures that are subjected to expansion from within, such as the urinary bladder?

A

Transitional epithelium

25
Q

Where is the location of the transitional epithelium?

A

Lions urinary bladder and portions of ureters and urethra

26
Q

What is the function of the transitional epithelium?

A

Permits distention

27
Q

Which gland enter the interstitial fluid an then diffuse directly into the blood stream without flowing through a duct?

A

Endocrine gland

28
Q

Which gland secrete their products into ducks the empty onto the surface of a covering in lining epithelium such as the skin surface or the lumen of a hollow organ?

A

Exocrine gland

29
Q

What is another name for merocrine glands?

A

Eccrine glands

30
Q

What is synthesized on ribosomes attached to rough ER?

A

Merocrine glands

Or another name is eccrine glands

31
Q

What gland is attached too rough ER: processed, sorted, and package by the golgi complex and released from the cell in secretory vesicles via exocytosis?

A

Merocrine glands

Or another name is eccrine glands

32
Q

Most exocrine gland’s of the body are holocrine glands

True or False

A

False, most exocrine glands of the body are merocrine glands

33
Q

what glands accumulate their secretory product at the apical surface of the secreting cell?

A

Apocrine glands

34
Q

Which gland include salivary glands and pancreas?

A

Connective tissue

36
Q

What tissue protects and insulates internal organs?

A

Connective tissue

37
Q

What tissue is the major transport system within the body?

Hint: Blood is a fluid type of this tissue

A

Connective tissue

38
Q

What tissue is the major site of stored energy reserves such as adipose or fat tissue?

A

Connective tissue

39

Q

What is the connective tissue’s material between it’s widely spaced cells named?

A

Extracellular matrix

41
Q

What consists of protein fibers and ground substances, the material between the cells in the fibers?

A

Extracellular matrix

42
Q

What type of tissue is Cartilage?

A

Connective tissue, even though it is avascular unlike most connective tissue

43
Q
