Q

what are the layers of the basement membrane?

A
  • basal lamina (superficial)
  • reticular CT (deep)

basal lamina has two layers, lamina lucida and lamina densa so overall superficial to deep BM layers= lamina lucida lamina densa lamina reticularis

Q

name this multicellular exocrine gland

A

compound alveolar

37
Q

is the basal lamina cellular?

A

no, its acellular , a supporting sheet between epithelium and CT

its the most superficial part of the basement membrane, reticular layer is deeper part of BM

38
Q

what is the most diverse and abundant tissue type? and what are the main classes?

A

Connective tissue,

main classes= CT proper (loose and dense)

cartilage,

bone,

blood

39
Q

what is the common tissue of origin for CT?

A

mesenchyme (mesoderm derived)

40
Q

what structural elements compose the CT?

A

ground substance (material that fills spaces between cells)

fibers (collagen, elastic, or reticular)

cells like fibroblasts, chondroblasts, osteoblasts, hematopoietic stem cells

41
Q

What are the types of CT proper for Loose CT?

A

areolar

adipose

reticular

42
Q

what are the types of proper CT for dense CT?

A

regular

irregular

elastic

43
Q

function of fibroblasts?

A

secrete proteins needed for fiber synthesis and components of the ECM

44
Q

what are macrophages derived from? function?

A

monocytes (WBC type), functions= phagocytosis

45
Q

whats the function of hematopoietic stem cells?

A

form blood cells,

all blood cells start as hemocytoblasts.. from red bone marrow

46
Q

3 major components of the ECM?

A

protein fibers (collagen fibers, elastic fibers, reticular fibers {type 3 collagen})

ground substance (have hyaluronic acid, proteoglycans, adhesive molecules like fibronectin)

fluid

A

Atrophy, cells shrinking from normal size

56
Q

Histopathology, name this picture

A

calcification

57
Q

Histopathology, name this picture/ describe
