Chapter 5: Tissue Organization Flashcards
4 Primary Tissues of the Body
epithelial tissue
connective tissue
muscle tissue
nervous tissue
covers the surface of the body,
lines body cavities
Epithelial Tissue
Characteristic of Epithelial Tissue
avascularity
(lacks blood vessels) Prevents bleedin
classified by the number of cell layers and the shape of the surface (apical) cells.
Epithelia
only one layer of cells
Simple Epithelium
Designed for diffusion, absorption, and secretion
Better Designed for diffusion, absorption, and secretion
-
Simple Epithelium
-thinner than stratified
two or more layers of cells
stratified epithelium
Better for protective functions
Stratified epithelium
- Single layer of flat cells
-Lines air sacs of lungs (alveoli)
single layer of flat cells, lines air sacs of lungs (alveoli)
keratinized: found in the epidermis
nonkeratinized: oral cavity, part of pharynx, esophagus, vagina & anus
composed of what cell shape?
stratified squamous epithelium
Epithelial found in the epidermis
keratinized
- stratified squamous
found in oral cavity, part of pharynx, esophagus, vagina & anus
-openings of the body
nonkeratinized
-stratified epithelium
single layer; walls of kidney tubules
simple cuboidal
(cells are slender and taller than they are wide)
columnar
ciliated: goblet cells are what cell shape
columnar
(cells are slender and taller than they are wide)
Epithelia in which all cells are in contact with the basement membrane (simple epithelium)
Pseudostratified columnar epithelium
2 forms of Pseudostratified columnar epithelium
ciliated: have goblet cells and located in large passageways of the respiratory system
nonciliated: have goblet cells,
goblet- forms mucus stretches & relaxes
Cell Shape: Stratified
stretches & relaxes
limited to the urinary tract (lining of the bladder)
Transitional epithelium
2 types of glands
Endocrine glands
Exocrine glands
-Connected with epithelial surface by duct
-Multicellular glands
-Classified By methood of secretion
Exocrine glands
(Duck EXITS water)
Lacks ducts
secrete hormones into the blood
ducts: tube or passageway
Endocrine glands
-ducts connect to epithelial
-classified by method of secretion
Exocrine Glands
(Multicellular glands)
(!/3) Type of Exocrine Gland
Gland that Packages secretions into vesicles
Release Secretions by exocytosis
Merocrine (watery)
(2/3) Type of Exocrine Gland
a portion of the gland that pinches off and becomes secretion
Apocrine
(A- Portion-of)
(3/3) Type of Exocrine Gland
Whole Cell disentigrates
Ex: Oil-producing glands in the skin (sebaceous glands)
Holocrine
(HoloCaust)
(3/3) Type of Exocrine Gland
Cell disintegrates
Oil-producing glands in the skin (sebaceous glands)
Holocrine Gland
(Exocrine)
Most diverse/abundant tissue
-widely distributed
Connective Tissue
3 basic components of connective tissue
-CELLS
-PROTEIN FIBERS
-GROUND SUBSTANCE
(protein fibers + ground substance = extra cellular matrix)
most abundant cell in the connective Tissue proper
Fibroplasts
(Cells in the CT PROPER)
-fibroplasts
-adipocytes
-fixed macrophages
-mast cells
-plasma cells
-free macrophages
Fat Cells
Adipocytes
derived from monocytes (White Blood Cells)
Fixed Machrophages
(irregular shaped Cells)
(Part of cells of connective tissue)
Fixed Machrophages
derived from monocytes (White Blood Cells)
secrete heparin in inhibit blood clotting
secrete histamine to dilate blood vessels
mast cells
what cell produce antibodies
plasma cells
Plasma Cells
produce antibodies
Type of wandering cell
free macrophages
Collagen: strong, (tendons and ligaments)
Reticular: thinner, form branching interwoven framework (lymph nodes, spleen, and liver)
Elastic: stretch and recoil easily (skin, arteries, and lungs)
Protein fibers: 3 types
Protein fibers: 3 types
Collagen: strong, (tendons and ligaments)
Reticular: thinner, form branching interwoven framework (lymph nodes, spleen, and liver)
Elastic: stretch and recoil easily (skin, arteries, and lungs)
1/3 Protein Fibers
-Strong fibers
-found in tendons/ ligaments
Collagen fibers
2/3 Protein Fibers
-Thin Fibers
- form branching interwoven framework (lymph nodes, spleen, and liver)
-
Reticular fiber
