Epithelial tissues chapter 4

Question 1

Epithelial tissue function

Answer 1

Provides physical protection
Controls permeability and forms glands
Produce specialized secretions

Question 2

Epithelial tissue location

Answer 2

Lines the outer surfaces of organs and blood vessels thought out the body, as well as the inner surfaces of cavities in many internal organs.

Question 3

Epithelial tissue characteristics

Answer 3

Cellularity(cell junctions)
Polarity(apical and basal surfaces)
Attachment(basal lamina)
Avascularity
Regeneration
Apical( the cell is exposed to internal and external environments)
Basal( cells attaches to underlying epithelial cells and deeper tissues)

Question 4

Goblet cells

Answer 4

Are cells that secrete mucous

Question 5

Ciliated epithelium

Answer 5

Moving particles or fluid over the epithelial surface in such structures as the trachea, bronchial tubes, and nasal cavities.
It acts like a brush to move particles.

Question 6

Non-ciliated epithelium

Answer 6

Tissues that don’t have cilia that is being use to move particles. No hairlike structures.
