lecture 3 & 4 Flashcards
list the 4 basic tissue types
epithelial
connective
muscular
nervous
list each type of cellular junction (5)
tight
adherens
desmosomes
hemidesmosome
gap
what is the difference between edothelium and mesothelium
edno lines the entire circulatory system
mesothelium lines body cavities
where would a simple cell be in the body
blood vessels
heart
where would a stratified cell occur in the body
lining of the mouth
where would a pseudostratified cell occur in the body
upper respiratory tract
where would a squamous cell occur
sweat glands
where would a cuboidal cell occur
kidneys
where would a columnar cell occur
G.I tract
what are two types of epithelial glands and what makes them different
endocrine - secretes hormones into the bloodstream
exocrine - secrets hormones in ducts
(mucous, sweat, oil)
define epithelial membrane
combines 2 or more tissues make an organ with all 4 tissue types
simplest organ of the body
what are the 4 types of membranes
mucous
serous
cutaneous
synovial
where does a mucous membrane occur
digestive tract
respiratory tract
where does a serous membrane occur
pleura
pericardium
where does a cutaneous membrane occur
covers the entire body
where does a synovial membrane occur
knee
elbow
what does the mucous membrane do
line interior body surfaces that do not open to the outside
what do the serous membrane do
does not open to external environment
lines some internal surfaces
what are 2 main components of connective tissue
cells
extracellular matrix (found between cells)
what are the 6 cells of connective tissue
fibroblasts
macrophages
plasma cells
mast cells/eosinophils
adipocytes
leukocytes
list the different types of connective tissue (4)
embryonic
mature
supporting
liquid
what are the protein fibres
collagen
elastic
reticular
what are the 3 types of muscle tissue and where do they occur in the body
skeletal - throughout the body - VOLUNTARY
cardiac - heart muscle - INVOLUNTARY
smooth - lines blood vessels, stomach - INVOLUNTARY
what is the difference between neurons and neuroglia
neurons PRODUCE nerve impulses
neuroglia NO nerve impulses
what is fibrosis
scar tissue in CT
what is granulation tissue
scar tissue when damage is extensive in CT
what happens in aging to epithelial cells
get thinner
what happens in aging to connective tissue
becomes fragile
