Q

Transitional ET

A

similar to stratified squamous ET but surface cells rounded

capable of changing shape to allow for istention; urinary system (bladder + ureters)

Q

pseudostratified columnar ET

A

appears stratified but each cell contacts basement membranes; not all cells exposed
may be ciliated and associated with goblet cells that secrete mucus
in respiratory system cilia help move mucus/particles and direct to digestive system

Q

Connective Tissue

A

most abundant tissue in body; very diverse
provides support -structurally and metabolically for other tissues
cells well separated -extensive matrix
capable of mitosis
most are highly vascularized

Q

CT types

A

connective tissue proper
supportive connective tissue
fluid connective tissue

17
Q

Cell types in CT proper

A

fibroblasts

adipocytes

18
Q

fibroblasts

A

produces fibers in matrix
large, flat, branched
CT proper

19
Q

adipocytes

A

fat cells

CT proper

20
Q

Cell types in supportive CT

A

chondrocytes

osteocytes

21
Q

chondrocytes

A

mature cell of cartilage

22
Q

osteocytes

A

mature cell of bone

23
Q

blood cells

A

RBC, WBC (platelets)

some WBC leave the blood and wander tissues

24
Q

Matrix of CT can be

A

liquid
largely fibrous
solid

25
Fibers of CT proper
collagen elastic reticular
26
Collagenous fibers
protein called collagen very tough, flexible, whitish, resist stretching -ligaments, tendons, skin
27
Elastic fibers
protein elastin stretch and recoil, yellowish ex. arteries, respiratory passages, skin
28
reticular fibers
protein called reticulin delicate, form network, not individually strong ex. lymph nodes, spleen, liver
29
ground substance
H2O, minerals, macromolecules varies from viscious fluid to solid surround/contains cells and fibers NOT matrix
30
CT =
ground substance + fibers + cells
31
CT proper types
Loose Areolar Reticular
32
loose CT
most general type, no regular arrangement binds and packs tissues, connects skin and muscle (fascia) surrounds nerves and blood vessels highly vascular holds interstitial fluid collagen and elastic fibers, fibroblasts, some immune cells flexible in all directions
33
adipose tissue
mostly adipocytes, few fibers stores fat, cushions organs, insulates organelles pushed to edges; appears empty, colorless energy storage throughout body
