Different Types Of Tissues Flashcards
Location of Simple Squamous Epithelium
- Kidney glomeruli
- Alveoli - Air sacs of lungs
- Heart lining
- Serosa
Function of Simple Squamous Epithelium
- Allows passage of materials by filtration and diffusion
Location of Simple Cuboidal Epithelium
- Kidney tubules
- Ducts
- Ovary surface
Function of Simple Cuboidal Epithelium
- Secretion and Absorption
Location of Simple Columnar Epithelium
Non-Ciliated
-Stomach to anal canal
Ciliated
- Bronchi
- Uterine tube
Function of Simple Columnar Epithelium
- Secretion of mucus
- Propels the mucus (ciliated type)
Location of Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium
Non-ciliated
- Males sperm carrying ducts and large glands
Ciliated
- Trachea
- Bronchi
- Most of the upper respiratory tract
Function of Pseudostratified Columnar epithelium
- Secretion of mucus
- Propulsion of By ciliary action
Location of Stratified Squamous Epithelium - Keratinized
Skin
Function of Stratified Squamous Epithelium - Non keratinized
- Potection from abrasion
Location of Stratified Squamous - Non keratinized
- Mouth
- Esophagus
- Vagina
Function of Stratified Squamous Epithelium - Non keratinized
- Protection from abrasion
- Serves as a lining or covering for moist internal cavities of the body
Location of Transitional Epithelium
- Lines the ureters
- Urinary bladder
- Part of the urethra
Function of Transitional Epithelium
- Stretches readily and permits distention of urinary organ by contained urine
List all the Epithelium Tissues
- Simple squamous
- Simple cuboidal
- Simple columnar
- Pseudostratified columnar
- Stratified squamous (keratinized and non-keratinized
- Transitional
Location of Skeletal muscle
- Flesh of the body
Function of the Skeletal muscle
- Moves or stabilizes the position of the skeleton
- Guards entrance or exit to the digestive tract
- Generates heat and protects internal organs
Location of Smooth muscle
- Walls of blood vessels, digestive, respiratory, urinary and reproductive organ
Function of smooth muscle
- Moves food, urine and reproductive secretion
- Controls diameter of respiratory passageways
- Regulate diameter of blood vessels
Location of cardiac muscle
- The heart wall
Function of Cardiac Muscle
- Circulation of blood
- Maintaining blood pressure
List all the muscular tissues
- Skeletal muscle
- Smooth muscle
- Cardiac muscle
Location of adipose tissue
- subcutaneous (deepest layers of skin near muscle) tissue
- Protects organs such as the kidneys
- Fat “depots” includes hips, breasts and belly
Function of Adipose tissue
- Insulates the body
- Protects some organs
- Serves as a site of fuel storage
Location of Areolar tissue
- Directly beneath the epidermis of the skin
Function of the Areolar tissue
- Functions as a universal packing tissue and “glue” to hold organs in place
Location of Reticular tissue
- Lymph nodes
- Bone marrow
- Spleen
Function of reticular tissue
- forms stroma (internal framework) of organs
Location of dense connective tissue
- Tendons - Attach skeletal muscle to bone (regular)
- Ligaments - Attach bone to bone at joints and are more elastic than tendons
- Dermis - Lower layers of the skin (irregular)
Function of dense connective tissue
- Bind body parts together
Location of Blood (vascular) tissue
- Surrounded by fluid matrix called blood plasma
Function of Blood (vascular) tissue
Transport vehicle for cardiovascular system carrying:
- Nutrients
- Wastes
- Respiratory gases
Location of elastic cartilage
- Supports the external ear
Function of elastic cartilage
- Provides elasticity
Location of hyaline cartilage
- Trachea
- Attaches ribs to the breastbone
- Covers ends of long bones
- Entire fetal skeleton before birth
- Epiphyseal (growth) plates in long boxes
Function of hyaline cartilage
- Helps bones move smoothly past each other in your joints
- Supporting and reinforcing body structures and joints
- Has resilient cushioning properties
- Resists compressive stress
Location of bone (osseous tissue)
- Axial skeleton
- Appendix skeleton
Function of bone (osseous tissue)
- protects and supports the body
List all the Connective tissue
- Adipose
- Areolar
- Reticular
- Dense connective tissue
- blood (vascular tissue)
- Elastic cartilage
- Hyaline cartilage
- bone (osseous tissue)
Location of neurons
- Central nervous system
- Peripheral ganglia
- Sensory organs
Function of neurons
- To receive and conduct electrochemical impulses to and from the body parts
Irritability ans conductivity
Location of nodes of ranvier
- Axon of the neuron
Function of nodes of ranvier
- Conduct nerve impulse
List all the nervous tissue
- Neurons
- Nodes of ranvier
