vt8 histology Flashcards
simple squamous tissue
single layer
function: in regions of the body where protection is not important, allows diffusion, filtration, secretion, and absorption. Lungs , ovioly, capillaries
stratified squamous tissue
cells along basement membrane . SKIN
Non keratinized epithelium is found lining the mouth esophagus and vagina
Keratinized epithelium cells are found in the peidermis the superficial layer of the skin
Protection
simple cuboidal
Tubules of kidneys,ducts,glands,terminal bronchioles in lungs, choroid plexus of brain, surface of ovaries
absorption and secretion in kidneys,
stratified cuboidal
ducts of mammary glands, sweat glands, salivary glands
secretion absorption protection
simple columnar
MICROVILLI
nonciliated:lines digestive tract from stomach to rectum,gallbladder, excretory ducts of some glands,
Ciliated cells assist with movement of particles out of the lungs and with the movement of particles out of the lungs
GOBLET CELLS
stratified columnar
large ducts of mamary glands and small portion of urethra of some male animals
pseudostratified columnar
each cell is attached to basement membrane
CILIA, GOBLET CELLS
Respiratory tract, nasal cavity, larynx, pharynx, trachea, bronchi
transitional epithelium
composed of cuboidal or columnar
Urinary bladder, ureters, urethra
Transitional epithelium is flexible to accomadate amount of urine in bladder ureters and urethra
Areolar connective tissue
Loose array of fibers includes macrophages, fibroblasts, mast cels, and some white blood cells.
Throughout the body, under epithelial basement membranes, between GLANDS MUSCLES AND NERVES surounding capillaries in many organs
Provides nutrients to tissues that it surrounds and supports
Adipose tissue
Throughout the body, under the skin, around the heart, and kidneys, within mesenteries and omentum, and around colon.
Thermoinsulator:protects organs and other tissues it surrounds
Reticular connective tissue
Spleen, lymph nodes, and bone marrow
provides internal skeleton for hematopoietic and lymphatic tissue
dense regular connective tissue
Tendons and ligaments,Tendons attach muscle to bone, and ligaments attach bones to one another
Resists strong pulling forces great stretch capacity
dense irregular connective tissue
dermis of skin, organ capsules, submucosa of digestive tract
designed to withstand pulling forces in all directions
Kidneys testes liver dense round organs
hyaline cartilage
collagen fibers evenly distributed throughout a rigid matrix
cartilage cells or CHONDROCYTES sit in spaces within the matrix called lacunae
Articulating surfaces of bones : costal cartilages of ribs: cartliages in nose trache larynx and most embryonic skeleton
Silvery white pink gray
elastic cartilage
firm matrix arranged in lacunae External ear (pinna) auditory tubes, epiglottis provides support and even more flexibility than hyaline cartilage
