FAKENG BIO PLANT ANIMAL TISSUE Flashcards
What causes tissues to form?
Cell differentation
A group of similar cells that perform a common function
Tissue
The study of tissues treated with biological stains
Histology
Forms during the development process of eukaryotic cells which eventually give rise to the various parts of the animal
germinal layers
outermost layer of the skin and nervous tissues
ectoderm
most of tissues and organs
mesoderm
lining of the digestive tract
endoderm
four types of animal tissues
epithelial (cover), connective (connect), muscular (contract), nervous (conduct)
covers body organs, lines hollow organs, and forms glands to interact w/ internal and external environments
epithelial tissue
protects and supports the body and its organs and bind, store energy, and provide immunity
connective tissues
for contraction ang generation of force and heat
muscle tissue
detects changes in a variety of conditions inside and outside the body and responds by sending electric signals/nerve impulses
nerve tissue
arranged in continuous sheets in a basal membrane, own nerve supply and avascular, and form coverings and linings in the body
epithelial tissue
epithelial tissue three major function
selective barrier, secretory surface, protective surface
two types of epithelial tissue
covering and lining epithelium and glandular epithelium
forms the outer covering of skin and other internal organs
covering and lining epithelium
makes up the secreting portion of glands
glandular epithelium
three classifications of arrangement of cells in layers in epithelial tissues
simple, pseudostratified, stratified
a single layer of cells for osmosis, diffusion, filtration, secretion, and absorption
simple epithelium
secretion vs absorption
production and release of substance while the other is intake of substance
appear to have multiple layers and have goblet cells in apical surfaces
pseudostratified epithelium
protect underlying tissues in wear and tear areas
stratified epithelium
four classifications of cell shapes in epithelial tissues
squamous, cuboidal, columnar, transitional
allows for rapid passage of substances (diffusion and filtration)
squamous cells
