Q

Histology slides are often used in teaching Laboratories to help students learn about the microstructures of human biological tissues

A

In Education

25
Q

Biological tissue samples taken from a patient enable medical experts to learn and understand more the patients condition and make recommendations for its treatment or management

A

Diagnosis for Treatment

26
Q

Forensic histology, Immunohistochemistry and cytology microscope study of biological tissues using various stains can help to clarify the cause of sudden unexpected deaths and other issues in forensic science

A

Forensic Investigations

27
Q

Example in autopsy, biological tissues from a deceased person can be studied using histologica; techniques enabling expert (e.g. Pathologist reunexplained death of a persom) to learn about the circumstances and possible cause of death

A

Forensic Investigations

28
Q

Study of biological cells and tissues recovered from archeological sites can provide information about history, even ancient history

A

Archeology

29
Q

The state of preservation of the biological material is critical and sometimes sufficient e.g. For bone histology and dental histology

A

Archaeology

30
Q

It supports other tissue and bind them together

A

Connective tissue

31
Q

Provides a covering (skin, the lining of the vsrious passages inside the body

A

Epithelial

32
Q

includes striated (also called voluntary) muscles that move skeleton and smooth muscles such as the muscles that surrounds the stomach

33
Q

Three major types of muscle tissue

A

Skeletal
Smooth
Cardiac muscle

34
Q

Made up of nerve cells (neurons) and is used to carry “messages” to and from various parts of the body

35
Q

Also excitable, allowing the propagation of electrons chemical signals in the form of nerve impulses that communicate between different regions of the body

36
Q

type of muscle that is long, thin spidly stuff that you picture when you hear muscle.

A

Skeletal Muscle

37
Q

Type of muscle that is stripy, parallel fibers, or the muscles or striations

A

Skeletal Muscle

38
Q

type of muscle that is rectangular shaped and has a single nucleus, but it’s dead giveaway are these things

A

Cardiac Muscle

39
Q

They’re little passages that open between cardiac cells and let ,messages pass super quickly from cell to cell

A

Intercalated Discs

40
Q

Type of muscle that surrounds organs that need to expand and constrict like blood vessels, the uterus, and the bladder.

A

Smooth Muscle

41
Q

Smallest Type of Muscle

A

Smooth Muscle

42
Q

A tissue that makes up most of our skin ad the borders between different organs

A

Epithelial Tissue

43
Q

It can be cuboidal, or cube-shaped and a round little nucleus, squamous, or flat , squashed cell with a flat looking nucleus, or columnar, or column shaped.

A

Epithelial Tissue

44
Q

The otherr type of striated muscle, but is found exclusively in the heart. They contract and send signals super quickly, so their structure reflects that

A

Cardiac Muscle

45
Q

pretty much everywhere else which includes stuff like cartilage and tendons, but aso your bones and fat cells

A

Connective Tissue

46
Q

It sit right next to each other in a nice, orderly line

A

Simple Epithelial Cells

47
Q

Cells stacked on top of each other

A

Stratified Epithelial Cells

48
Q

Layers of squished cells like a big stack of pancakes

A

Stratified Squamous Cells

49
Q

An arrangement unique to columnar cells

A

Pseudo-stratified cells

50
Q

All in one layer, but their top are uneven

A

Pseudo-stratified Cells

51
Q

We can split nervous tissue into two cell types they are:

A

Nuerons and Glial Cells

52
Q

three categories of connective tissue

A
  1. Loose
  2. Dense
  3. Specialized
53
Q

Without a doubt the superstar of the nervous system, partly because they have this beautiful branching shape

54
Q

Non-living material, like collagen and elastin fibers that give the connective tissue some tensile strength

A

Extracellular Matrix (ECM)

55
Q

Bone has specialized cells called

A

Osteoblasts

56
Q

The most common cells that can support extracellular matrix

A

Fibroblasts

57
Q

specialized connective tissue that maintain cartilage

A

Chrondocytes

58
Q

fat has living cells in it called ___________ that store energy among other things

A

Adipocytes
