Tissue quiz

Question 1

functional classification of exocrine glands is based on

Answer 1

how the gland releases its secretory product

Question 2

due to the entire cell being secreted ___ glands will produce the most viscous secretion

Answer 2

holocrine

• release their contents when the cell dies

Question 3

which epithelial tissue lines most bronchioles and fallopian tubes and moves mucus and oocytes

Answer 3

ciliated simple columnar epithelium

Question 4

in which area would transitional epithelial cells be found

Answer 4

lining of the urinary bladder

Question 5

these types of cell junctions anchor adjacent cells together and resist their separation during contractile activities

Answer 5

adherens junctions and desmosomes

Question 6

which epithelial tissue is found lining the kidney glomerulus and performs blood filtration

Answer 6

simple squamous epithelium

Question 7

reticular

Answer 7

modified collagen fibres used as support on walls of blood vessels

Question 8

collagen

Answer 8

strongest and most abundant
resist pulling or stretching, but not stiff which allows for tissue flexibility

Question 9

elastic fibers

Answer 9

allows extensibility
can be stretched 150% w/o breaking and return to normal length

Question 10

the pubic symphysis and intervertebral discs are composed of

Answer 10

fibrocartilage

Question 11

which epithelial tissue forms the most superficial layer of the skin

Answer 11

keratinized stratified squamous epithelium

Question 12

which epithelial tissue lines the ducts of sweat glands and oil glands

Answer 12

stratified cuboidal epithelium

Question 13

which membrane lines freely movable joints

Answer 13

synovial membrane

Question 14

___ pumps blood through body and ___ is located in wall of blood vessels

Answer 14

cardiac, smooth

Question 15

vitamin C is needed for healthy collagen fibers, what tissue will NOT be as affected if vit C was absent or present in low amounts

Answer 15

transitional tissue

Question 16

bone can replenish dead and damaged cells because of its ample blood supply

Answer 16

true

bone= fast regeneration
cartilage and tendons = less blood supply - slow regeneration

Question 17

what connective tissue is replaced by bone in the epiphyseal plates

Answer 17

hyaline cartilage

Question 18

mucous membranes

Answer 18

lines structures that open to the outside of the body

in digestive, respiratory, and reproductive tracts

tight junctions
goblet cells secrete mucous

Question 19

which cells are considered excitable cells bc they are able to produce electrical signals

Answer 19

muscle cells and neurons

Question 20

an infant has a genetic disorder that affects the thermogenic gene in brown fat, what may be an outcome of this disorder

Answer 20

difficulty regulating body temperature

Question 21

muscle tissue can proliferate very rapidly

Answer 21

false

• does not regenerate well, very few stem cells

Question 22

which type of cellular junction does not link one cell to another

Answer 22

hemidesmosome

Question 23

which type of cellular junction forms a leak proof seal between cells

Answer 23

tight junction

Question 24

which tissue forms coverings linings and glands

Answer 24

epithelial

Question 25

which type of cellular junction allows communication between two cells - they form channels that allow cytoplasm from two cells to contact each other

Answer 25

gap junction

Question 26

serous membranes

Answer 26

lines body cavity that does not open to external environment

made of areolar tissue w 2 layers, parietal and visceral

Question 27

cutaneous membrane

Answer 27

covers entire surface of the body - epidermis and dermis

Question 28

synovial membrane

Answer 28

line cavities of freely movable joints
reduce friction
no epithelium but have a layer of discontinuous cells called synoviocytes and a layer of connective tissue
