Lab Quiz 5 Flashcards
What are the four types of tissues?
Epithelial
Connective
Muscular
Nervous
Main types of Epithelial tissue
Lining (At external and internal surfaces)
Glandular (Secretory tissue in glands)
Characteristic of Epithelial
Cells tightly packed together
Exhibit polarity
A vascular
Inervares
Mitotic
Classification of Epithelia in # of Cell Layers
Simple
Stratified
Classification of Epithelia in Shape of Cells
Squamous
Cuboidal
Columnar
Simple Squamous Epithelium
Allow for easy movement of molecules across the membrane through osmosis and diffusion
Found in the kidney, heart, blood vessels, lungs
Simple Cuboidal Epithelia
Secretion and absorption
In kidney tubules, small ducts and glands, covering the ovary
Simple Columnar Epithelium
Absorption and secretion
Found in digestive tract, uterine tubs, large glands, gallbladder, small bronchi
Pseudo stratified Columnar
Secretion and movement along the cells surface
Found in most of the upper respiratory tract, male reproductive ducts, lining the trachea, and large glands
Stratified Squamous Epithelium Keratinized
Protects - resists friction/ abrasion
Found in the epidermis of the skin
Stratified Squamous Epithelium Nonkeratinized
Protects underlying tissue from friction/abrasion
Found in ling of vagina, mouth, and esophagus
Transitional Epithelium
Allows stretching of the tissue layer
Found lining the urinary bladder, ureters, and urethra.
Stratified Cuboidal Epithelium
Protection and secretion
Found in sweat glands and mammary glands
Strategy Fire Columnar Epithelium
Protection and secretion
Found in male urethra and large ducts of some glands
CT Proper: Areolar (Loose) Connective Tissue
Binds structures together
Often associated with epithelial tissue and blood vessels and nerves
