Q

Epethelial functions

A
  • Protecting underlying structures
  • Acting as barriers
  • Permitting the passage of substances - Secreting substances
  • Absorbing substance

16
Q
  • Single cell layer
  • Found where absorption, secretion, and filtration occur
  • A thin epithelial barrier is desirable
A

Simple epithelium

17
Q
  • Consists of two or more cells.
  • It regenerates from below and more durable than simple epithelia
A

Stratified epithelium

18
Q
  • Forms a thick epithelium because it consists of many layers of cells.
  • Cells divide in the deeper layers, and newer cells push older ones farther outward, where they flatten.
A

Stratified squamous

19
Q

mineralized matrix.

20
Q

liquid matrix.

21

Ability to contract and shorten

A

Muscle tissue

22
Q

Fors the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. Coordinating and controlling

A

Nervous tissue

23
Q

a thin sheet or layer of tissue that covers a structures.

A

Tissue membrane

24
Q

Three major categories of tissue membrane

A

Mucous
Serous
Synovial

25
Line cavities that open to the outside and often contain mucous glands which secretes mucus.
Mucous
26
line the trunk cavities and cover the organs located within these cavities.
Serouse
27
line the joint cavities
Synovial
28
The substitution of viable cells for dead cells.
Tissue repair
29
The substitution of viable cells for dead cells.
Tissue repair
30
Tissue repair occurs in two major ways
Regeneration Fibrosis
