Histo module 2A Flashcards
True or false. Males have higher percentage of adipose tissues than women
False .
Male 15-20%
Female 20-25%
True or false. Stereocilia are actually very long villi
True
True or false. In all cells, the stroma is made up of connective tissues
False.. Brain and spinal cord are not
True or false. Epithelium shows polarity
True
True or false. Everything that enters and leaves the body must pass through epithelial sheet.
True. Epithelium lines internal and external cavities of the body
True or false. The gap junction is part of the junctional complex
False. Junctional complex comprises of zonula occludens, zonula adherens and macula adherens
The region of the cell that faces the connective tissue is called the
Basal pole.The opposite is the apical pole ( faces space)
What part of the junctional complex is similar with the intercalated disk of the cardiac muscles
Macula adherens
True or false. All epithelial cells are followed by a basement membrane
True
Principal phagocytosing cell of the connective tissue
Macrophage
Basal lamina is made up of type _____ collagen
IV
True or false, dense CT have more fibers than loose CT
True. Dense CT- more fiber …less cell
Loose CT- less fiber… More cell
Reticular fibers are made up of type ____ collagen
III
True or false. Hemidesmosome is part of the lateral basal epithelial surface
False. Part of the basal epithelial membrane
This cartilage is an intermediate between hyaline and dense connective tissue
Fibrocartilage
Resident connective tissue cell except A. Plasma cells B. fibroblast C. Adipose cell D. Mast cell
A. Plasma cell
Fixed cells - fibroblast, pericytes, fixed macrophage, mast cells
Transient cells- eosinophil, basophil, macrophage, lymphocyte, plasma cell
Basement membrane is thinner than basal lamina
False. Basement membrane is composed of basal lamina and reticular lamina, therefore thicker
Transmembrane protein receptor of hemidesmosome
Intergrins
Sites of adhesion A. Occluding junction B. anchoring junction C. Gap junction D. Adhesive junction E. two of the above
E. anchoring junction is also the adhesive junction
Autoimmune disease characterized by antibodies against hemidesmosomes
Bollous pemphigoid
cytoskeletal feature at the apical pole in many epithelial cells with a role in cytoplasmic motility and other functions
Terminal web
They are similar to centrioles
Basal body
Seals to prevent the flow of materials between the cells A. Occluding junction B. adhesion junction C. Gap junction D. Adhesive junction
A
Complex mixture of GAG, proteiglycans and glycoproteins
Ground substance
