Week 2 Flashcards
Contain no blood vessel
Cell
Cells are tightly packed
Continuous sheet of cells
Where in your body epithelial tissue is present?
Skin
Inside of Respiratory and Digestive System
1 layer of cells
Simple Epithelial Tissue
More than 1 layer of cells
Stratified Epithelial Tissue
Shape of cells are flat square like
Squamous
Cube like shape of cells
Cuboidal
Rectangular column like shape if cells
Columnar
In lungs, transports oxygen from lungs to blood
Simple Squamous
In skin, for protection
Stratified Squamous
In kidney, filters our blood for toxic substances
Simple Cuboidal
In ducts/tubes of glands, helps in secretion of substances
Stratified Cuboidal
In organs of the digestive system, helps in digestion of food
Simple Columnar
Helps in smooth movement of particles
Ciliated Epithelium
Makes skin waterproof
Keratinized Epithelium
Hair-like filaments
Cilia
_____ epithelial cells are never ciliated
Stratified
Protein
Keratin
This tissue helps to connect all the organs and parts of the body
Connective Tissue
The tissue that connects 2 bones
Ligament
The tissue that connects muscle to bone
Tendon
AN adult human body has ____ bones
206
The skin is connected to our muscle with a type of connective tissue
Areolar/ Loose Connective Tissue or Filler Tissue
Connective type of tissue. It supports and hold our internal organ together; FRAME WORK OF THE BODY
Bones
Bone Cell or____
Osteocytes
Another type of specialized tissue, SLIGHTLY ELASTIC PARTS EG. EAR LOBE
Cartilage
Shock absorber
Adipose Tissue
A type of fluid connective tissue
Blood
Dense Connective Tissue (Binding)
Ligament, Tendon
Areolar/Loose Connective Tissue (Packing)
Filler tissue in hollow organs
SKELETAL CONNECTIVE TISSUE (SUPPORTING)
BONE, CARTILAGE
ADIPOSE TISSUE (SUPPORTING)
Acts as an insulator & shock absorber
FLUID CONNECTIVE TISSUE (SUPPORTING)
Helps in oxygen transport
Facilitates movement of the animal by contraction of individual muscle cells
MUSCULAR TISSUE
MUSCLE = ___
MOVEMENT
Special proteins in muscle
Actin & Myosin
The muscle that are attached to our skeleton
SKELETAL MUSCLE
Conjunction with the skeletal system for voluntary muscle movement
SKELETAL MUSCLE
responsible for involuntary movement such as breathing, secretion, ejaculation, birth and other reflexes
SMOOTH MUSCLE
works to keep the heart pumping through involuntary movements
CARDIAC MUSCLE
The only way through which the rest of our body is connected to our brain. It regulates and decides the necessary actions to be carried out
SPINAL CORD
Long, stand like fibers
NERVE FIBERS
Messages or signals that travel to and from the brain
NERVE IMPULSE
or nerves; transmit electrical impulses
Neurons
Found in the nerve cell body, carry impulses away from the cell body
AXON
carry impulses toward the nerve cell body
DENDRITES
