serous membranes

A

line closed body cavities (pleural and pericardial)

19
Q

cutaneous membranes

A

on the skin

20
Q

synovial membranes

A

line joint cavities and produce fluid within joint

21
Q

hyaline=

A

glassy

22
Q

types of muscle tissue

A

skeletal, cardiac, smooth

23
Q

skeletal muscle tissue- characteristics

A

long, multinucleate cells with striations

24
Q

skeletal muscle tissue- function

A

VOLUNTARY movement

25
Q

cardiac muscle tissue- function

A

contracts to propel blood into circulatory system

26
Q

cardiac muscle tissue- characteristics

A

uninucleate, branching, intercalated discs

27
Q

cardiac muscle- location

A

within walls of heart

28
Q

smooth muscle tissue- characteristics

A

spindle shaped cells with central nuclei, closely arranged, no straitions

29
Q

smooth muscle tissue- function

A

propels substances along internal passageways, INVOLUNTARY CONTROL

30
Q

smooth muscle tissue- location

A

mostly walls of hollow organs

31
Q

nervous tissue- function

A

transmit electrical signals

32
Q

nervous tissue- location

A

brain, spinal cord, nerves

33
Q

nervous tissue- description

A

contains two types of cells:
1. neurons- excitatory cells
2. supporting cells (neuroglial cells)

34
Q

nissl bodies

A

create protein
-in dendrites of neuron
-NEVER found in the axon

35
Q

motor neuron

A

carry signals from central nervous system to muscles
*nissl bodies IN motor neuron

36
Q

steps of tissue repair

A
  1. inflammation
  2. granulation (repair)
  3. regeneration (remodeling)
37
Q

step 1 in tissue repair: inflammation

A

release of histamine and heparin
-dilation of blood vessels
-disposal of dead/dying tissue so repair can occur

38
Q

step 2 in tissue repair: granulation/organization

A

-blood clot repaired
-restored blood supply
-epethelium begins to scab

39
Q

step 3 in tissue repair: regeneration and fibrosis

A

-scab detaches
-epithelium thickens and fibrous tissue matures

40
Q

rubor

A

redness

A

swelling

43
