5 functions of epithelia

A
  1. protect underlying structures (outer layer, oral) 2. act as a barrier 3. permit passage of substances 4. secreting substances 5. absorbing substances thinner - secretion, absorption, filtration thicker - barrier, protection

Q

adipose

A

fibrous, fat

fxn: packaging material, insulation, energy storage, protection
found: subcutaneous around organs, mammary glands

18
Q

dense collagenous connective tissue

A

fxn: ability to w/stand pulling force, great tensile strength, stretch resistant
found: tendons, ligaments, dermis, outerlayer BV

19
Q

dense elastic CT

A

fxn: allow tissue to stretch and recoil
found: vocal cords, walls of large arteries, ligaments

20
Q

marfan syndrome

A

genetic, abnormal production protein fibrillin-1 which is needed for function of elastic fibers and cystokines, thus many systems effected. major cause of death with synd is ruprute aorta – walls weaken – made of CT and elastic CT

21
Q

cytokine

A

produced by: macrohages, b t lymphocytes, mast clels, epthelial cells of spleen thymus bone marrow

  • mediate immunity and allergy, relgulate maturation and growth and responsiveness.
  • if derived from immune system they are cytotoxic and can kill certain types of cancer cells
22
Q

hyaine cartilageq

A

fxn: allows growth of long bone, provides rigidity with flexibility
found: long bones, cartilage rings if respiratory system, costal cartilage or ribs, articulating surface of bone, babys skeleton

23
Q

fibrocartilage

A

fxn: somewhat flexible, capable of withstanding considerable pressure
found: IVD, pubic, symphysis, articular disks, like at the knees and jaws

24
Q

elastic cartilage

A

rigid yet fragile, returns to original shape after being stretched or bent

found: external ear, epiglottis, auditory tubes

25
Q

bone

A

fxn: strength, support, protection, attachment site for mm, ligaments
found: skeletal system

26
Q

Muscle tissue, definition and 3 types

A

makes movement possible, contraction occurs when proteins located in mm interact

  1. skeletal
  2. cardiac
  3. smooth (hollow organs)
27
Q

skeletal muscle tissue

A

fxn: movement of body
found: body attachment all over body

28
Q

cardiac muscle tissue

A

fxn: pumps blood under involuntary control
found: heart

29
Q

smooth muscle tissue

A

fxn: forces fluid through tubes, involuntary control
found: stomach, intestine

30
Q

nervous tissue

A

fxn: everything controlled by NS, mass comm. from beain to body vice versa, transmit electrical info
found: brain, spinal cord, ganglia

31
Q

Nervous tissue

A
  • forms brain, spinal cord, nerves
  • repsonsible for coordinating and controlling the body and its functions
  • vol and inbol control
  • nervous tissue cells communicate with one another with the cells of other tissues bye elctrical signal
32
Q

Neuron and 3 parts

A
  • responsible for conduction fo AP
  • cell body, dendrite, neuroglia
33
Q

cell body of neuron

A

contains the nu, site of general cell fxn

34
Q

dendrite

A

“like a tree”

  • they usually receives stimuli that lead to electrical changes that either increase and decrease and AP in the neurons axon
35
Q

neuroglia

A

“glue”

  • the support cells of the NS, nourish, protect, insulate
36
Q

Inflammation

A

occurs when tissue is damaged

  • viral infections, proinflammatory iets, cuts, bacteria, sublaxtion patterns, microorgs, injury
37
Q

Inflammation process

A

inflammatory chemical mediators released, dilation of blood vessels, edema (fibrin forms network to wall of injury site, results in adhesions), neutrphil present (type of WBC to fight bacteria and forms pus)

38
Q

Reduce inflammation?

A

Rest

Ice

Compression

Elevation

39
Q

how NSAIDS work

A

prevent sunthesis of prostaglands and related substances

40
Q

healing of minor wound

A

epithelial tissue and connective tissue self repair, blood clots, new connective tissue replaces epithelisum forming a scar

41
Q

chronic inflammation

A

when agent responsible for injury is not removed, healing process interfered with

ex: lungs xposed to silica (sand) for long enough, normal tissue replaced with fibrous connective tissue , now at risk for TB
