Chapter 9 Flashcards
3 types of dense fibrous tissue
Irregular
Regular
Elastic
Irregular dense tissue
Dermis layer of the skin
Muscles
Regular Dense tissue
ligaments and tendons
flexible
walls of arteries
Structure of loose fibrous
Elastic fibers loosely interwoven
Function of Loose fibrous
Stretch/flexible connection
Adipose Structure
Fat cells
Adipose Function
Act as food (energy)
Brown/White fats
Protection
Reticular Structure
Framework of spleen and bone marrow
Reticular Function
Defences against microorganisms
Filters out injurious particles
Sickle Cell anemia
A blood disease caused by the production of abnormal hemoglobin
Keratinized Stratified Squamous
Covers outer skin on body surface
Non Keratinized Stratified Squamous
Tits and Spits
Simple Squamous (Location and Function)
Located in Alveoli of lungs
Function is absorbstion (diffusion,filtration,osmosis)
Stratified Squamous (Function)
Protection
Transitional (Location and function)
Surface of the mucous membrane lining the urinary bladder
Function is Protection and permits stretching
Apocrine Glands
Secreted by pinching off the cell (results in loss of plasma membrane and cytoplasm)
Sweat Glands
Holocrine Glands
Self destructing of cells
Merocrine Glands
Secrete directly through the cell membrane, most numerous type of gland
Most abundant tissue
Connective Tissue
Brown Vs White fat
Brown Fat (Heat generation) White Fat (Protection,insulation) Most common fat
Osteocytes
Mature Cells of the bone
Compact Bone Tissue (Osteon)
Structure of the bone
Cancellous Bone Tissue (Spongy)
Supports red bone marrow
Cartilage Tissue
Hyaline
Fibro
Elastic
Hyaline
Most prevalent type of cartilage
Located at ends of bones
Fibrocartilage
Strongest and most durable
located on nose
Shock absorbing
Elastic Cartilage
Flexible
Located on ears
Blood Tissue
Transportation/regulation of body temp
Plasma is 55% of blood volume
Cells are 45% of the blood volume
Muscle Tissue
Skeletal
Smooth
Cardiac
Skeletal Tissue
Threadlike
Many Nuclei
Found in bones and vertebrae
Smooth Tissue
Elongated narrow cells
1 nucleus per cell
Located in organs
Cardiac Tissue
Branching cells
One nucleus per cell
Nervous Tissue
Transmits information to the brain and regulates the body’s functions
Axon
Single Process
Transmits nerve impulses away from cell body
Dendrite
Transmits Impulses toward the cell body
Sebaceous and Mammary
Sebaceous- Single branched
Mammary- Compound Branched
Osteoblasts
a cell that secretes the matrix for bone formation.
Breakdown
Osteoclasts
a large bone cell that absorbs bone tissue during growth and healing.
Hypertonic
concentration of solutes is greater outside the cell than inside
Hypotonic
concentration of solutes is greater inside the cell than outside
Isotonic
two solutions having the same osmotic pressure
free movement of water
