transitional epithelium tissue
which epithelium tissue is a flat cells
simple squamous epithelium tissue
which epithelium tissue is a cube-like cells
simple cuboidal epithelium tissue
which epithelium tissue is a single layer of tall cells
simple columnar epithelium tissue
which epithelium tissue is a single layer but some cells are shorter than the others
pseudo stratified epithelium tissue
what is the main function of stratified epithelium
protection
which epithelium tissue resembles both stratified squamous and stratified cuboidal
transitional epithelium tissue
the study of abnormal changes in body functions that are the causes, consequences, or concomitants of disease processes
pathophysiology
what are the 3 pathophysiology
clue cell
celiac spruce or gluten
ductal carcinoma
which pathophysiology can cause infection in the gardenerella
clue cell
which pathophysiology sensitive enteropathy
celiac spruce
( is an immune reaction to eating gluten) thus abnormality of appearance
which pathophysiology can affect the breask milk, abnormal formation of cells
ductal carcinoma
what are the 3 elements of connective tissues
ground substance
fibers
cells
which main elements in the CT has extracellular matrix
grounds subs
fibers
what are the functions of CT
binds body tissue tgt
supports the body
provides protection
what are the 3 major components of extracellular matrix
protein fibers
ground substance
fluid
what are the 3 types of protein fibers
collagen
recticular
elastic
which CT has a gel like substance and has fibers
embryonic tissues
what type of cells can be found in the embryo
embryonic connective tissues
what are the 4 main class of CT
connective tissue proper

spongy
types of blood CT
WBC
RBC
platelets
what is the function of areolar CT
wraps and cushion organs
holds and conveys tissue fluid
macrophages phagocytize bacteria
important role in inflammation
what is the function of recticular CT
the fibers form internal skeleton
(supports other cell types fr eg WBC)
what is the function of adipose CT
reserve food fuel
insulate against heat loss
supports and protect organs
what kind of dense CT is closely packed bundles of collagen fibers

can be found
dense irregular CT
what kind of CT that
the dorsal aspect of neck, vocal chords, blood vessels walls
can be found
elastic CT
what is the function of dense regular CT
attach muscles to bones/ muscles
attach bones to bones
withstand great tensile
what is the function of elastic CT
able to stretch and recoil w strength in the direction of the fiber orientation
what is the function of dense irregular CT
able to withstand tension exerted in many directions
provides structural strength
why do cartilage heal slowly when injured
as it is avascular
