Tissue Injury/ Repair Flashcards
The bodies standard response to injury- initiating the repair and regeneration of damaged tissue
Inflammation
The phase inflammation that happens right away
Acute inflammation
what word is indicative of inflammation
“itis”
Antihistamine
Tissue that covers external parts of the body, lines internal cavities & passageways, cells are closely packed together
Epithelial Tissue
Tissue that binds/protects the cells and organs, contains fibroblasts. Transports gas waste nutrient, chemical messengers. Contains cells, protein fibers, other ground substance
Connective Tissue
Tissue that provides movement and contracts forcefully when excited
Muscle Tissue
Tissue that allows for nerve communications through body
Nervous Tissue
Is lymphatic tissue accesible by palpating the superficial fascia
Yes
Types of connective tissue
Loose, Dense, Supportive
Cells of muscles
Myocytes
Where do myocytes develop from
Myoblasts
Fat cells are stored here
Adipose tissue
Fibers that have great strength. Resist stretching, give tendons and ligaments resiliance
Collagen
These types of fibers return things back to their shape after being stretched or compressed
Elastin Fibers
These fibers anchor and provide structural support to functional cells, vessels, nerves or organs
Reticular fibers
Synovial membranes(Type of connective membrane)
surround joints and allows joints to move freely with eachother
Mucus membrane
Lines body cavities that are exposed to the outside.
Serous membrane
Lines cavities, covers organs that are not exposed to the outside environment. Reduced friction between organs
Cutaneous membrane
rests on top of connective tissue. Helps protect the body from pathogens
The ability of tissue to generate electrical potentials in response to mechanical deformation is
Piezoelectricity
What is another term for the repair stage of the inflammatory response?
subacute
What is the amount of force a tissue can absorb or resist before failure?
Mechanical strength
