Chapter 4 Tissues Flashcards
What tissue covers the body surface; lines body cavities, hollow organs, an ducts (tubes) an forms glands?
Epithelial tissue
What tissue protects an supports the body and its organs; binds organs together, stores energy reserves as fat, an provides immunity?
Connective tissue
What tissue generates the physical force needed to make body structure move?
Muscular tissue
What tissue detects changes inside an outside the body an initiates an transmits nerve impulses that coordinate body activities to help maintain homeostasis?
Nervous tissue
What is the science that deals with the study of tissues?
Histology
What do you call a physician who specializes in laboratory studies of cells an tissues to help other physicians make accurate diagnosis?
A pathologist
Cells of what tissue line the stomach, intestines,and urinary bladder have many tight junctions to retard the passage of substances between cells and prevent the contents of these organs from leaking into the blood or surrounding tissues?
Epithelial tissues
What Junction consist of weblike strands of transmembrane proteins that fuse the outer surface of adjacent plasma membrane’s together?
Tight junctions
What type of Junction resemble desmosomes but they do not link adjacent cells?
Hemidesmosomes
What Cell Junction anchor cells not to each other but to the basement membrane?
Hemidesmosomes
What cell Junction has tiny fluid filled tunnels called connexons connecting neighboring cells?
Gap junction
What cell Junction also allows cells and a tissue to communicate with one another?
Gap junction
What cell Junction enable nerve or muscle impulses to spread rapidly among cells, A process that is crucial for the normal operation of some parts of the nervous system and for the contraction of muscles in the heart, gastrointestinal tract, and uterus?
Gap junction
What is your consists largely or entirely of closely packed cells with little extracellular material between them, and the sellers are arranged in continuous sheets, and either single or multiple layers?
Epithelium tissue
What membrane is A thin extra cellular structure composed of two layers, the basal lamina an the reticular lamina?
Basement membrane
What is located between the epithelium in the underlying connective tissue layer and helps bind and support the epithelium?
Basement membrane
What is a vascular meaning without blood?
Epithelial
Epithelia has a nerve supply
True or False
True
Pseudostratified epithelium is technically classified as a simple epithelium because all it’s cells rest on the basement
True or False
True
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
Transitional cells
What epithelium is owing to specific locations where it is found, simple squamous epithelium that lines the heart, blood vessels, and lymphatic vessels?
Endothelium
What epithelium forms the epithelial layer of serous membrane’s, such as the peritoneum, pleura, or pericardium?
Mesothelium
Which cells are modified columnar cells that secrete mucus, a slightly sticky fluid, at the apical surfaces?
Goblet cells
Because if it’s elasticity, this lines hollow structures that are subjected to expansion from within, such as the urinary bladder?
Transitional epithelium
