tissues Flashcards
epithelial tissues job
cover, line internally & glandar secretions
connective tissue job
protects, supports the body and organs,
muscular tissue job
generates the physical force needed to make body structure move, heats
nervous tissue job
detects changes inside and outside the body
epithelial tissues are
closley packed cells with little extracellular matrix
name and describe the two groups of the epithelial tissue
covering and linning epithlium, glandular epithelium
what are the two types of cell layers
simple and stratified
name 4 types of tissues
muscular, nervous, epithelial, connective
covering and linnings
squiamous, cuboidal, columnar
two types of connective tissue
loose and dense
nnective tissue cosists of
areolar, recticular, adipose
connective tissue is composed of
loose & dense, cartilage, bone and blood
cartilage consists of
hyaline, fibocartilage, elastic cartliages
bone consists of
spongy and compact
nervous tissue consists of
neurons and neuroglia
mucsle tissue consists of
skeletal, cardiac and smooth
difference between simple and stratified
simple consists of 1 layer, stratified consists of multiple layers
squamous cells are
thin and flat
cuboidal cells are
box shape
columnar cells are
long box shaped
stratified columnar are
A less common cell type, functions as protection
and secretion.
stratified squamous are
Stratified squamous is the most abundant of the
stratified tissue types
stratified cuboidal are
can be 2 or
more layers and they function to protect
underlying tissues and have some secretion and
absorption properties.
what can Transitional epithelial cells do and where are they found
change shape and bladder
