Lab 2 Flashcards
Simple Squamous Epithelium
- Alveoli of lung
- Diffusion and filtration
Simple Cuboidal Epithelium
- Kidney tubules
- secretion and absorption
Simple Columnar Epithelium
- Digestive tract
- Secretion of mucous/absorption
Stratified squamous epithelium
- epidermis of skin
- protects from abrasion
Transitional epithelium
- urinary bladder
- stretches
Pseudostratified ciliated Columnar epithelium
- Trachea
- protects and moves mucous
Skeletal Muscle
- skeletal muscle
- voluntary movement
Cardiac Muscle
- heart
- pumps blood
Smooth muscle
- hollow organs
- involuntary movement is substances
Blood
- blood vessels
- transports gases and nutrients
Bone
- bones
- supports, protects, allows movement by muscle
Fibrocartilage
- intervertebral discs
- shock absorber
Dense regular
- tendons
- connects muscle to bone
Areolar
- Under epithelial tissue throughout body
- wraps and cushions organs
Adipose
- fat
- energy storage, insulation, and protection
Elastic
- aorta
- recoils if stretched
Nervous tissue
- brain, spinal cord, and nerves
- transmit electrical signals
Protein synthesis
Ribosome
- storage and transport of the proteins
- steroid and lipid synthesis
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Packaging proteins
Golgi Apparatus
Digestive enzymes
Lysosomes
Detoxify
Peroxisomes
- produce cellular energy (ATP)
- “power house of the cell”
Mitochondria
Direct the formation of the mitotic spindle
Centrioles
