Structural Organisation Flashcards
Neural tissue formed from
Ectoderm
Connective tissue formed from
Mesoderm
Types of tissue
Epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscular tissue, neural tissue 
Which organs comprise specific proportion and pattern of all basic types of tissue?
Heart, lungs, kidney stomach
Percentage of tissues in stomach
 all tissues are present in equal proportion, first connective, second muscular third neural, and inner side epithelial
Percentage of tissues present in heart
Epithelial 2%, muscular 9295%, connective 2%, neural 1%
When two or more organs perform a common function by their physical and chemical interaction, be together for a
Organ system
In which tissue cells are compactly packed with little intercellular, space and matrix?
Epithelial tissue
Epithelial cells, rest on a membrane called
Basement membrane
Basement membrane is formed of
Glycoprotein, collagen fibres, mucopolysaccharides, and is non-cellular
There is no blood supply in which tissue
Epithelial tissue because of the less intercellular space and blood vessels cannot penetrate
Which tissue is avascular?
Epithelial tissue
How epithelial tissue gets oxygen and nutrients as there is no blood supply
Connective tissue is present beneath it and has good blood supply 
Types of epithelial tissue
Simple epithelium and compound epithelium 
Define simple epithelium and types of it
When a single layer of epithelial cells is present over basement membrane. Types – simple squamous, simple coral, simple columnar
Types of compound epithelium
Transitional epithelium and stratified epithelium
Single layer of flat and cells with irregular boundaries
Simple squamous epithelium
Cells of – are attached to each other like tiles on floor. This epithelium is called as.
Pavement epithelium
Nucleus of simple squamous epithelium
Cells are flat. Nucleus is present in centre. It is round and it is also slightly flat.
Functions of simple squamous epithelium
Diffusion of gases, alveoli of lungs, present in blood vessels, arteries, beans, and capillaries and name given to blood capillary as endothelium, bowman capsule
Nucleus of simple cuboidal epithelium
Centre and round
Function of simple cuboidal epithelium and simple column epithelium
Secretion and absorption
Nucleus of simple columnar epithelium
Elongated, present, and the lower/basil part of cells
Location of simple cuboidal
Ducts of glands and DCT
Microvilli – PCT
Celia – bronchioles
Location of simple column epithelium
Stomach and lever
Microvilli – small intestine
 Celia – fallopian tube
They increase the surface area by 20 times for absorption and also also called brush bordered epithelium
Microvilli formed from plasma membrane of the free surface of the cell
Unicellular gland, define an examples
Unicellular gland consist of single cell, which is responsible for synthesis and creation of a compound
Example – goblet cell – exocrine gland, which secreted and synthesise mucus
Multi cellular gland define and example
Consist of many cells responsible for synthesis and secretion of a compound
Examples – salivary gland, sweat gland, sebaceous gland, memory gland, thyroid gland
Types of glands
Exocrine gland– duct present
Endocrine gland – duct absent
Hetero gland – exocrine and endocrine present
Example of exocrine glands
Lever, sweat gland, celery gland, memory gland
Oil, milk, mucus, digestive enzymes, ears, sweat, saliva
Feud is present around this gland that is this gland bathe in the fluid
Endocrine gland
Examples of endocrine gland
Adrenal gland, thyroid gland, pituitary gland
Example of hetero crime gland
Example pancreas
First part – acini – 99% part – pancreatic juice – digestion, (exocrine part )
Second part – islet of langerhann– 1% – hormones, example-insulin, glucagon,(endocrine part)
Ovaries
Testies
Which is flexible and stretchable epithelium
Transitional compound epithelium
Non-flexible and non-stretchable compound epithelium
Stratified epithelium
Example of transitional epithelium
Uterus and urinary bladder
Example of stratified epithelium
Outer surface of skin, moist surface of buckle cavity,pharynx, inner lining of duct of saliva gland and pancreatic duct, cornea
Junction is present in epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscular or neural tissue
Epithelial tissue – all three junctions are present
Connective tissue – no cell junction
Muscular/neural tissue – cell junctions are present
Junction is present in epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscular or neural tissue
Epithelial tissue – all three junctions are present
Connective tissue – no cell junction
Muscular/neural tissue – cell junctions are present
Keep two cells together, or it helps in cementing two cells together
Adherent Junction
Prevents leakage across a tissue, which junction it is
Example
Tight junction
Example – stomach (oxytocin cell)
Helps in communication between cytoplasm of one cell with the cytoplasm of other cell
Gap junction
Gap junction function
Health and transport of ions , small molecules and some times large molecules from one cell to another
In which tissue internal cellular space is a lot and cells are far apart from each other
Connective tissue
Extra cellular metrics of connective tissue is filled with
First protein fibres
Ground substance – mucopolysaccharides
Most abundant and widely distributed tissue in the body of complex animals
Connective tissue
Functions of connective tissue
One – the special function of linking and supporting the other organs/tissues
Two – helps in transport of substances in the body
Ligament connects
Bone to bone
