24
Where are simple columnar cells found?
In the digestive tract
25
Simple columnar cells are good at
Absorption and protection
26
What is special about simple columnar epithelial cells
They have goblet cells
27
Cells that secrete mucus to lubricate the free space
Goblet cells
28
False impression of layers, all cells touch the basement membrane but not all cells reach the free space, have cilia and goblet cells
Pseudostratified columnar epithelial
29
Where are pseudostratified columnar cells found?
In the respiratory tract
30
What are pseudostratified columnar cells good at
Absorption and secretion
31
Cells at the free edge see squamous shaped, cells near basement membrane are cuboidal it columnar
Stratified squamous epithelial
32
Where are stratified squamous cells found?
In the lining or the mouth, throat, and anal cavity as well as the outer portion of the skin
33
Stratified squamous cells are good for
Protection
34
Tissue adapted for stretching, cells at free space can change shape
Transitional epithelial
35
Where are transitional epithelial cells found?
Line urinary organs
36
If transitional epithelial cells are stretched they are what shape?
Squamous
37
If transitional epithelial cells aren't stretched they are what shape?
Cuboidal
38
Where is connective tissue found?
Everywhere in the body
39
What is the function of connective tissue?
Protect, support, bund things together, fill spaces, store fat, produce blood cells
40
What is special about CT cells?
They have an extra cellular matrix
41
Made by CT cells, vary from fluid to rock hard substances, help tissues bear weight and withstand stretching
Matrix
42
What fibers are found in the matrix?
Collagen(white and strong) Elastic fibers(yellow and stretchy) Recticular(fine fibers)
43
Delicate and cob-we by, packing tissue and glue, surrounds organs and is found directly beneath skin
Loose CT (Areolar)
44
Lots of white fibers, found in ligaments and tendons, they are slow too heal because of the poor blood supply, white part of our eyes
Dense CT
45
Connects bone to bone
Ligament
46
Connects muscles to bones
Tendons
47
Cells contains a large vacuole that stores fat, protects by padding organs, acts as an insulator and energy reserve
Adipose CT
48
Rocklike hardness from the matrix with calcium salts that separate bone cells, supports, protects, and provides framework
Osseous CT
49
Tough yet flexible, has 3 types
Cartilage CT
50
What are the three types of CT
Hyaline, fibrocartilage, elastic
51
Glassy, blue-white, found at ends of bone, tip of nose, tracheal rings, connects ribs to breast bone
Hyaline cartilage
52
Highly compressible, forms disks between the backbone
Fibrocartilage
53
Outer ear and part of larynx
Elastic cartilage
54
Has living cells in a fluid matrix called plasma, cells are RBC, WBC, and platelets
Vascular CT
55
Specially to contract or shorten to move things, there are 3 types
Muscle tissue
56
What are the 3 muscle tissues?
Skeletal, cardiac, smooth
57
Attached to bones, contracts voluntarily, long cylindrical multi-nucleate cells, have a banded appearance
Skeletal muscle
58
Found only in the heart, contacts and pumps th heart, contracts involuntarily, has stritations, are uninucleate, have intercalated disks
Cardiac muscle
59
Thick junctions where branching cells fit together
Intercalated disks
60
Make up organs, line stomach and bladder, no stritations, one nucleus, are spindle shaped and contract involuntarily
Smooth muscle
61
Make up the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, cells called neurons, conduct electrical impulses, cytoplasm is drawn into long extensions to speed up impulses
Nervous tissue
