Tissue Quiz Flashcards
4 major types of tissues
Epithelial tissue
Connective tissue
Muscular tissue
Nervous tissue
Epithelial tissue
LOCATION AND FUNCTION
locations- body covering, lining.
Glandular tissue
Functions- protection, absorption, filtration, secretion
Cell shapes and epithelial types
Epithelium- simple, pseudoostratified columnar, stratified
Cell shapes- squamous, cuboidal, columnar
4 types of epithelia with only one layer on cells
Simple squamous
Simple cuboidal
Simple columnar
Pseudostratified columnar
Nervous tissue 1
Communications by electrical and chemical signals
Consist of neurons (nerve cells)
Neuroglia (glial)
Connective tissue
Loose fibrous connective tiss
Dense fibrous connective tiss
Adipose tissue
Bone
Cartilage
Blood
Lymphatic
Areolar tissue
Loosely organized fibers
Abundant blood vessels
Underlies epithelial
In membranes
Between muscles
Pass way for nerves + blood vessels
Reticular tissue
Mesh of fibers and fibroblasts
Supportive storms for lymphatic organs
Found in nodes, spleen, bone, and thymus
Dense regular connective tissue
Packed parallel collagen fibers
Compressed fibroblast nuclei
Elastic tissue forms wavy sheets in some locations
Tendons attach muscles to bones and ligaments hold bones tgther
adipose tissue
Empty looking cells (thin margins)
Nucleus pressed against cell membrane
Energy storage, Insulation, cushioning
Subcutaneous fat and organ packing
Brown fat juveniles produces heat
Compact bone
Arranged in cylinders that surrounded central canals that run longitudinally through shafts of long bones
Blood vessels and nerves travel through central canal
Bone matrix in concentric lamellae
Onion layers around each central canal
What is BLOOD
Types of connective tissue
Contains loving and non loving components
PURPOSE- transports nutrients and waste throughout body
Formed elements
Leukocytes & thrombocytes
Erythrocytes
Blood cells
Make up of 45% of volume
Types-
Erythrocytes- red blood cells- RBC
Leukocytes-white blood cells WBC
Platelets- not actually cells clotting factors)
Plasma
Liquid part of blood
Contains plasma proteins-
Albumin- maintains osmotic pressure
Fibrinogen and globulin- clotting factors
Water ( liquid solvent)
Salts (maintain osmotic pressure)
Nutrients carried in blood
