Chapter 6 Flashcards
a group of similar cells that perform a common function
tissue
extracellular material that surrounds the cells
Matrix
the biology of tissues.
Histology
skin tissue, and linings of some systems.
Epithelial tissue
bone, cartilage, tendon, and ligament
Connective tissue
used for communication throughout the body
Nervous tissue
Tissue for movement
Muscle tissue
epithelial tissue attached to the underlying connective tissue using this basement membrane as an adhesive
Basement membranes
Simple epithelium tissue
Simple squamos
discharge into ducks, salivary gland.
Exocrine
specialized for secretory activity
Grandular epithelium
discharge directly into blood or interstitial fluid, pituitary, thyroid, adrenal.
Endocrine
collect product inside the cell and rupture for release, destroys the whole cell.
Holocrine gland
Collect product near the apex and secrete by pinching off, harms the cell
apocrine gland
direct discharge, doesn’t harm the cell.
Merocrine gland
the most diverse type of tissue and is found around nearly every organ
Connective tissue
Fat cells
Adipose
bundles of collagenous fibers that withstand multidirectional stretching.
Dense irregular
3d web of support, works as a framework
reticular
mostly collagen and can resist stretch
Collagenous dense regular
Osseous Tissue
Bone
Hard shell of the bone
Compact bone
Bone producing cells
Osteoblasts
bone destroying cells
Osteoclasts
spongy bone that supports red bone marrow
Cancellous Bone
cartilage cells produce the tough, gristle like ground substances.
Chondrocytes
without bloods cells and relies on diffusion
Avascular
Muscle that attaches to bone, it is striated
Skeletal Muscle
Heart muscle that is striated and has intercalated discs
Cardiac muscle
Muscle that is found on organ walls and has no striations
Smooth Muscle
nerve cell
Neuron
