Chapter 4 Tissues (Lab Study Guide) Flashcards
Types of Tissue
1.) Epithelial
2.) Connective
3.) Muscular
4.) Nervous
how is epithelial tissue classified
number of layers
shape of cells
simle epithelia
single layer
stratified epithelia
many layers
squamous epithelia
flat/oval shape
cuboidal epithelia
cube shape
columnar
column shape
simple squamous
rapid diffusion / filtration
air sacs of lungs
heart/blood vessels
simple cuboidal
kidney tubules
small glands
ovaries
simple columnar
intestines
stratified squamous
epidermis of skin
esophagus
mouth
stratified cuboidal
sweat glands
mammary glands
stratified columnar
male urethra
transitional epithelia
stratified with many different cell shapes
where organs constantly move
bladder
pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelia
looks like many but is really one
cilia helps move substances along a surface
trachea / bronchi of lungs
parts of connective tissue
ecm:
1.) ground substance
2.) fibers
cells
1.) fibroblasts (secrete fiber (ecm) in CT proper)
2.) chondrocytes (secrete ecm in cartilage)
types of connective tissue studied (we only did two)
connective tissue proper
cartilage
types of fibers
collagen
elastic
reticular
collagen fibers
thickest and strongest
elastic
thin
ability to stretch / recoil
reticular
shortest and thinnest
ground substance
gel like / bone like substance fills space of cells
types of connective tissue proper
loose and dense
types of loose connective tissue proper
1.) loose areolar
2.) loose adipose
types of dense connective tissue proper
1.) dense regular
2.) dense irregular
description of loose areolar
contains many different fibers
function of loose areolar
universal packing
(supports and binds other tissues)
MOST ABUNDANT
location of loose areolar
most abundant, very widespred
subcutaneous layer of skin
description of loose adipose
signet rings
triglyceride pushes nuclei to side of the cell
mdae of adipocytes
