m3: organisms’ body organization Flashcards
It is a group of similar cells performing a common function.
Tissue
It is a branch of Biology that deals with the study of plant and animal tissues.
Histology
It s an instrument used to cut tissues into ultra-thin sections
Microtome
4 Types of Tissues (ECMN)
❖ Epithelial
❖ Connective
❖ Muscular
❖ Nervous
Classification of Epithelial Tissues (number of layers & shape)
❖ According to number of layers
❖ According to shape
❖ According to number of layers
- S
- S
❖ According to shape
- Sq
- C
- C
❖ According to number of layers
- Simple
- Stratified
❖ According to shape
- Squamous
- Cuboidal
- Columnar
ACCORDING TO NUMBER OF LAYERS
❖ Simple –
❖ Stratified –
❖ Simple – 1 layer
❖ Stratified – 2 or more layers
ACCORDING TO SHAPE
❖ Squamous –
❖ Cuboidal –
❖ Columnar –
❖ Squamous – flattened
❖ Cuboidal – cube-like
❖ Columnar – elongated
Categories of Epithelial Tissues
1. C&LE
2. GE
- Covering and Lining Epithelia
- Glandular Epithelia
Facing exterior and interior spaces
a. _- surface
b. _ _- basement membrane (basal lamina)
- Covering and Lining Epithelia
a. Apical
b. Basal surface
Form glands
- Glandular Epithelia
❖ Single layer of flattened cells
❖ These cells are usually found in thin barriers where exchange of nutrients, wastes, and respiratory gases occurs.
❖ Example: alveoli of the lungs
and blood vessels (capillaries)
Simple Squamous Epithelium
❖ Basal-cuboidal to columnar
Types:
a. - with nuclei; mouth, pharynx, esophagus, vagina, anal canal
b.
Stratified Squamous
a. Non-Keratinized
b. Keratinized
❖ Single layer of cube-like cells
❖ These cells have large cytoplasm, which makes them more efficient in absorption
and secretion.
❖Example: tubules of the kidneys
Simple Cuboidal Epithelium
Ducts of larger glands
Stratified Cuboidal
❖ Single layer of columnar cells
❖ These cells are found on the linings of small intestines and is responsible for absorption
Simple Columnar Epithelium
❖ _– these are extensions of the cell membrane to increase the surface area for absorption
❖ _– these cells are responsible for the secretion of mucus
Microvilli
Goblet cells
❖ ‘_ _’ epithelium
❖ These are made up of columnar cells of irregular shape
❖ The cells appear to be forming several layers, but are actually arranged in a single layer
❖ Example: upper respiratory tract
Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium
Falsely stratified
Transitional Epithelium
Cuboidal-
Squamous-
Urinary bladder
Cuboidal- relaxed
Squamous- stretched
Urinary bladder
❖ Binding and support
❖ Protection
❖ Maintenance of body form
❖ Filling body space
❖ Storage of fats
❖ Transport of nutrients and wastes
❖ Body defense
❖ Repair of body parts
