Q

Stratified Cuboidal Epithelium

A

Forms ducts of exocrine glands
Secretion

21
Q

Transitional Epithelium

A

Lining of urinary bladder and ureters
Cells change shape as bladder fills/empties
stretchy

22
Q

Endocrine glands

A

“ductless”
Secrete hormones into blood

23
Q

Exocrine

A

secrete directly into skin

24
Q

Function of connective tissue

A

Physical protection
Support and framework
Binding of structures
Storage
Transport
Immunity

25
Connective tissue
ground substance comprised of water and chemicals resident and wandering cells contain proteins collagen, elastin and reticular
26
Resident cells
Housed inside the CT Fibroblasts, Adipocytes, Mesenchymal, Fixed macrophages
27
Collagen
Primary building block protein for skin, bone, tendons. ligaments and other connective tissues
28
Elastin
One of the most abundant proteins in the body. It is stretchy but very strong.
29
Reticular
thin delicate supporting proteins
30
Ground substance
Viscous in blood, semisolid in cartilage and solid in bone
31
Loose ct
Areolar: packing Reticular: beams Adipose: energy
32
Dense ct
Regular:rope irregular:burlap sack elastic:spring
33
fluid ct
blood and lymph
34
cartilage types
hyaline, elastic, fibrocartilage
35
hyaline cartilage
helps your bones move smoothly past each other in your joints. It's flexible but strong enough to help your joints hold their shape. Slippery
36
Elastic cartilage
a type of cartilage that provides both strength and elasticity to certain parts of the body, such as the ears. Allows stuff to maintain original shape when altered
37
Fibrocartilage
tough, dense, composed of thick collagen fibers; inflexable
38
Scurvy
Extreme vitamin D deficiency Vitamin D essential for healthy collagen
39
Marfan syndrome
* Rare genetic disease of CT * Symptoms:  Abnormally long fingers, toes, limbs  Malformation of thoracic cage, vertebral column  Easily dislocated joints, resulting from weak ligaments, tendons, and joint capsules  Weakness in aorta and abnormal heart valves  Slipped lens of the eye * Often death before age 50 due to cardiovascular problems * Early diagnosis/medical management allows long life span
40
Atrophy
decrease in cell # or size
41
Hyperplasia
increase in number of cells; precursor to cancer
42
Dysplasia
growth of abnormal cells; still reversible
43
Neoplasia
tissue growth out of control; tumor develops -benign: doesnt spread -Malignant: does spread (bad)
44
Necrosis
tissue death
45
Cutaneous membrane
Lines top layer of skin
46
Mucous membrane
Line organs and passageways that open to external environment Respiratory, reproductive, urinary, digestive systems
47
Serous membrane
double layered lining of moving organs; prevents friction
48
visceral layer of serous membrane
attached to the organ(s)
49
parietal layer of serous membrane
attached to the wall of the cavity
