In the digestive tract

25
Q

Simple columnar cells are good at

A

Absorption and protection

26
Q

What is special about simple columnar epithelial cells

A

They have goblet cells

27
Q

Cells that secrete mucus to lubricate the free space

A

Goblet cells

28
Q

False impression of layers, all cells touch the basement membrane but not all cells reach the free space, have cilia and goblet cells

A

Pseudostratified columnar epithelial

29
Q

Where are pseudostratified columnar cells found?

A

In the respiratory tract

30
Q

What are pseudostratified columnar cells good at

A

Absorption and secretion

31
Q

Cells at the free edge see squamous shaped, cells near basement membrane are cuboidal it columnar

A

Stratified squamous epithelial

32
Q

Where are stratified squamous cells found?

A

In the lining or the mouth, throat, and anal cavity as well as the outer portion of the skin

33
Q

Stratified squamous cells are good for

A

Protection

34
Q

Tissue adapted for stretching, cells at free space can change shape

A

Transitional epithelial

35
Q

Where are transitional epithelial cells found?

A

Line urinary organs

36
Q

If transitional epithelial cells are stretched they are what shape?

A

Squamous

37
Q

If transitional epithelial cells aren’t stretched they are what shape?

A

Cuboidal

38
Q

Where is connective tissue found?

A

Everywhere in the body

39
Q

What is the function of connective tissue?

A

Protect, support, bund things together, fill spaces, store fat, produce blood cells

40
Q

What is special about CT cells?

A

They have an extra cellular matrix

41
Q

Made by CT cells, vary from fluid to rock hard substances, help tissues bear weight and withstand stretching

A

Matrix

42
Q

What fibers are found in the matrix?

A

Collagen(white and strong)
Elastic fibers(yellow and stretchy)
Recticular(fine fibers)

43
Q

Delicate and cob-we by, packing tissue and glue, surrounds organs and is found directly beneath skin

A

Loose CT (Areolar)

44
Q

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

A

Dense CT

45
Q

Connects bone to bone

A

Ligament

46
Q

Connects muscles to bones

A

Tendons

47
Q

Cells contains a large vacuole that stores fat, protects by padding organs, acts as an insulator and energy reserve

A

Adipose CT

48
Q

Rocklike hardness from the matrix with calcium salts that separate bone cells, supports, protects, and provides framework

A

Osseous CT

49
Q

Tough yet flexible, has 3 types

A

Cartilage CT

50
Q

What are the three types of CT

A

Hyaline, fibrocartilage, elastic

51
Q

Glassy, blue-white, found at ends of bone, tip of nose, tracheal rings, connects ribs to breast bone

A

Hyaline cartilage

52
Q

Highly compressible, forms disks between the backbone

A

Fibrocartilage

53
Q

Outer ear and part of larynx

A

Elastic cartilage

54
Q

Has living cells in a fluid matrix called plasma, cells are RBC, WBC, and platelets

A

Vascular CT

55
Q

Specially to contract or shorten to move things, there are 3 types

A

Muscle tissue

56
Q

What are the 3 muscle tissues?

A

Skeletal, cardiac, smooth

57
Q

Attached to bones, contracts voluntarily, long cylindrical multi-nucleate cells, have a banded appearance

A

Skeletal muscle

58
Q

Found only in the heart, contacts and pumps th heart, contracts involuntarily, has stritations, are uninucleate, have intercalated disks

A

Cardiac muscle

59
Q

Thick junctions where branching cells fit together

A

Intercalated disks

60
Q

Make up organs, line stomach and bladder, no stritations, one nucleus, are spindle shaped and contract involuntarily

A

Smooth muscle

61
Q

Make up the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, cells called neurons, conduct electrical impulses, cytoplasm is drawn into long extensions to speed up impulses

A

Nervous tissue
