Q

Glands are made up of a group of cells that secrete fluid through ducts

A

glandular epithelium

18
Q

Secrete substances outward through a duct (sweat glands)

A

Exocrine Gland

19
Q

Ductless glands that secrete hormones through the bloodstream (thyroid glands)

A

Endocrine Gland

20
Q

Cells excrete the products via exocytosis (sweat gland)

A

Merocrine Gland

21
Q

A portion of the cell pinches off with the secreted products (mammary gland)

A

Apocrine Gland

22
Q

Cells rupture and spill products into the duct (sometimes blocking it and creating zits) (sebaceous-oil glands in skin)

A

Holocrine Glands

23
Q

Complexity and how substances are secreted

A

2 ways glands are classified

24
Q

proper, cartilage, bone, blood

A

4 types of connective tissue

25
Q

nervous, muscle, connective, epithelium

A

4 types of tissue

26
Q

provides support and binds other tissues together, provides insulation and protection, some are able to transport

A

connective tissue

27
Q

the stem cells that all connective tissues come from

A

mesenchyme

28
Q

presence of blood vessels

A

vascularity

29
Q

areolar, adipose, reticular

A

loose connective tissue

30
Q

regular, irregular, elastic

A

dense connective tissue

31
Q

mostly open space, holds water and salt, found under epithelium and around organs

A

areolar

32
Q

compromised of fat cells, have large vacuoles that contain fat/oil

A

adipose

33
Q

contains reticular fibers, which create a stiff framework that support other cells

A

reticular

34
Q

collagen fibers are arranged in one direction, provides “tensile strength” like a rope, found in tendons and ligaments

A

regular

35
Q

collagen fibers are arranged in many directions, provides strength in multiple directions, found in capsules around organs

A

irregular

36
Q

provides flexible cushioning, found between vertebrae and in arteries

A

elastic (connective tissue)

37
Q

doesn’t have nerves or blood vessels
hyaline, fibro cartilage, elastic

A

cartilage

38
Q

glassy looking, firm ground substance with lacuna (space for cells), few collagen fibers, found in larynx, bridge of nose, and ribs

A

hyaline

39
Q

contains lots of collagen, mostly running parallel, found in intervertebral spaces

A

fibro cartilage

40
Q

highly flexible, more elastic fibers, found in outer ear and tip of nose

A

elastic (cartilage)
