type of membrane that produces mucus
Mucous membrane
26
type of membrane that creates serous fluids that lubricate opposing surfaces
Serous membranes
27
Where are mucus membranes found
found in areas that connect to outside
28
Where are serous membranes found
in body cavities that connect to the outside
29
type of membrane that produces sweat
Cutaneous membrane
30
Where is the cutaneous membrane found
the skin
31
type of membrane that creates synovial fluid which lubricate joints
Synovial membrane
32

in the joints
33
change in type of cell
Metaplasia
34
What is happening when smoking changes trachea from pseudostratified columnar epithelium to nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium
metaplasia
35
increase in size of cells of existing tissue
Hypertrophy
36
increase in the number of cells of a tissue
Hyperplasia
37
tumor or abnormal growth of cells in tissue
Neoplasia
38
decrease in size or number of existing cells
Atrophy
39
term for tissue death
Necrosis
40
Five Changes to aging tissues
``` Cells get smaller Cells get fewer Cells don’t work as well Cells don’t repair/replace as well Cells die ```
41
3 characteristics of epithelial tissues
Cellularity, Polarity, Attachment to a basement membrane
42
epithelial tissue is composed almost entirely of tightly packed cells
Cellularity
43
epithelium has an apical surface exposed to the external environment or internal body space
Polarity
44
epithelial layer is bound at its basal layer to a basement membrane as a molecular barrier and to strengthen the bond to underlying connective tissue
Attachment to a basement membrane
45
A thin layer of connective tissue underlying the epithelium that is a molecular barrier and strengthens the attachment to underlying connective tissue
basement membrane
46
3 layers associated with the basement membrane
Lamina lucida, lamina desa, and reticular lamina
47
a glycoprotein constituent of mucus
mucin
48
Substances that dissolve in water and readily conduct electrical current
electrolytes
49
Clusters of cells that produce a secretion and one or more ducts
acini
50
Unicellular glands that secrete mucin
goblet cell
51
glands that have a single unbranched duct
simple glands
52
glands that have branched ducts
compounds glands
53
tissue that lacks an apical surface; it is the most diverse, abundant, and widely distributed form of tissue
Connective tissue
54
3 classifications of connective tissue
Connective tissue proper, supporting connective tissue, fluid connective tissue
55
6 functions of connective tissue
Physical protection, Support and structural framework, binding of structures, storage, transport, immune protection
56
bones of the skull and thoracic cage protect delicate organs, adipose tissue cushions organs
Physical protection
57
bones serve as the framework for the body, keep airways open, and provide supportive capsules around kidney and spleen
Support and structural framework
58
Ligaments bind bone to bone; tendons muscle to bone; connective tissue skin to underlying muscle and bone
Binding of structures
59
adipose tissue stores energy, bones store calcium and phosphorus
Storage
60
blood carries gasses, nutrients, and wastes
Transport
61
contains leukocytes and other immune cells
Immune protection
62
Necrosis of soft tissue due to restricted arterial blood flow
gangrene
63
necrosis of the intestine due to an obstruction that restricts blood flow to the intestines
Intestinal gangrene
64
usually occurs when a body part is desiccated, and blood supply is constricted, eg complication of frostbite
Dry gangrene
65
caused by bacterial infection of tissues that have lost their blood supply
Wet gangrene
66
usually in muscle tissue, gas is caused by bacteria clostridium, which invade necrotic tissue and produce gas
Gas gangrene
67
Support, maintenance, and replacement of cells and extracellular matrix becomes less efficient. Epithelia becomes thinner; tissue repair takes longer; bones become brittle; muscle and nervous tissue atrophies
changes that occur to tissues as we age
