Ermelat P2 Flashcards
Site of phonation
Larynx
Epithelium of upper epiglottis
stratified squamous epithelium
Epithelium of olfactory
pseudostratified columnar epithelium
It is the first line of defense. It protects our body from infection, pathogens, and harmful UV radiation.
Protective function
Where is dermal papillae located?
Stratum Germinativum
Found in basal cell layer and function as touch receptors
Merkel cells
Stabilizes the skin
Hypodermis
Outermost, overlapping dead keratinized cells to form shiny surface
Cuticle
Pacemaker of the heart
SA node
What is found in arteries but is absent in veins?
Internal/External elastic cartilage
Used as communication of the cell in the immune system to coordinate defensive measures.
Cytokines
Molecule that is recognized by cells of adaptive immune system and elicits a response from these cells
Antigen
Refers to the ability of receptors on macrophages, neutrophils, and eosinophils to recognize and bind the Fc portions of antibodies attached to surface antigens of microorganisms.
Opsonization
Antibodies bound to antigens on virus-infected cells of the body are recognized by the primitive lymphocytes called NK cells
NK cell activation
Most abundant component of respiratory epithelium
Ciliated columnar cells
Secrete mucin and create protective mucus layer
Goblet cells
Epithelium of oropharynx
Stratified squamous epithelium
Epithelium of nasopharynx
Respiratory epithelium
Mushroom-shaped, occasional taste buds

Ileum
Where is the peyer’s patches found
Ileum
Epithelium of appendix
Simple columnar with goblet cells
Smooth muscle layer of the stomach
3 - oblique, circular, longitudinal

Urethra
Epithelium of type 2 alveolar cells
Simple cuboidal epithelium
Release surfactant material
Type 2 alveolar cells
Site of exchange of O2 and CO2
Alveoli
Filter out particular material from inspiered air.
Vibrissae
Substances more from the tubular lumen across the epithelium into the interstitium and surrounding capillaries.
Reabsorption
Where afferent arteriole enters
Vascular pole
Largest single accumulation of lymphoid tissue
Spleen
Deeper extension of cortex
Paracortex
Most common capillaries
Continuous (Somatic)
Blocks blood cells and platelets
Fenestrations of the capillary endothelium
Percentage of blood plasma entering a glomerulus
20%
Epithelium of female urethra
Transitional
Specific complement components bind and rupture membranes of invading cells
Complement activation
Pleural membrane attached to lung tissue
Visceral pleura
