Q

Simple and compound epithelium- one function and difference each.

A

Simple: made up of a single layer of cells and functions as lining for body cavities, ducts and tubes.

Compound: two or more layers and mainly protective in functioning.

Q

Some cuboidal or columnar cells get specialised for secretion

A

Glandular epithelium
Two types:
Unicellular- isolated goblet cells which line the alimentary canal
Multicellular- consisting of cluster of cells (eg salivary)

19
Q

Which tissue LINKS and SUPPORTS other tissues/organs?

A

Connective

20
Q

Connective tissue range from - to - ?

A

Soft to specialised

21
Q

Name specialised connective tissues

A

Cartilage, bone, adipose and blood

22
Q

What’s the most widely distributed tissue in the body of complex animals

A

Connective

23
Q

Statement: In ALL connective tissues, cells secrete fibres of structural proteins (collagen/elastin)
True/false

A

False. Blood is an exception.

24
Q

What provides strength, elasticity and flexibility to the connective tissues?

A

FIBRES. (Collagen/Elastin)

25
Q

Apart from fibres, what else do cells of connective tissues secrete?

A

MODIFIED POLYSACCHARIDES. They accumulate between cells and fibres and act as matrix (ground substance).

26
Q

Connective tissue classified into

A

THREE TYPES

1) Loose
2) Dense
3) Specialised

27
Q

Connective tissue serves as support framework for epithelium

A

Areolar tissue present beneath the skin

28
Q

Apart from Areolar, what other connective tissue is found beneath the skin

A

Adipose

29
Q

Layer of CT beneath skin contains what

A

Areolar tissue has Fibroblasts, macrophages, mast cells

30
Q

Where does adipose get its fat?

A

Excess of nutrients which are not used immediately are converted into fats

31
Q

Cells and fibres loosely arranged in a semi fluid ground substance Vs completely packed fibres and fibroblasts

A

Loose and dense CT

32
Q

Which dense regular CT connects muscle to bone

A

TENDON

33
Q

Which dense regular CT connects bone to bone

A

LIGAMENT

34
Q

Tendons (muscle to bone) and ligaments (bone to bone) are examples of

A

Dense regular CT

35
Q

In which CT collagen fibres are present in rows between many parallel bundles of fibres?

A

Dense Regular/ Tendon or Ligament

36
Q

Which fibre is majorly found in dense irregular CT

A

Collagen

37
Q

Which CT is present in skin

A

Dense irregular

38
Q

Name the various types of specialised connective tissues

A

Cartilage, bone, blood

39
Q

Connective tissues range from soft to specialised such as

A

Adipose
Cartilage
Bone
Blood

40
Q

Which CT has a solid, pliable intercellular material which resists compression

A

Cartilage

41
Q

Which CT has a hard and non pliable intracellular material

A

Bone

42
Q

Matrix in the small cavities of cartilage is secretes by

A

The cells inhabiting these small cavities, chondrocytes.

43
Q

Most cartilages in embryos of all animals are replaced by bones in adults. True/False

A

False. Vertebrate embryos only.
