Question 1

Define tissue

Answer 1

ensemble of similar cells from same embryonic origin that together carry out a specific function

Question 2

Four main tissue types

Answer 2

connective, muscle, nervous, epithelial

Question 3

Function of connective tissue

Answer 3

protects, supports, connects, or separates different types of tissues and organs

Question 4

Function of muscle tissue

Answer 4

posture, and body support, locomotion and heat production

Question 5

Function of epithelial tissue

Answer 5

secretion, absorption, filtration, and protection

Question 6

Function of nervous system

Answer 6

sensory input, integration, control and regulation of muscles and glands, homeostasis, and mental activity

Question 7

5 types of epithelial tissue

Answer 7

simple squamous, simple cuboidal, simple columnar, stratified squamos, stratified cuboidal, stratified columnar

Question 8

Function and ex. location of simple squamos

Answer 8

absorption, secretion, and filtration; air sacs of lungs

Question 9

Function and ex. location of simple cuboidal

Answer 9

absorption, secretion, and filtration; kidney tubules, glands

Question 10

Function and ex. location of simple columnar

Answer 10

absorption, secretion, and filtration; small and large intestine

Question 11

Function and ex. location of stratified squamos

Answer 11

protection; skin, mouth, nose, vagina. it’s either keratinized or nonkeratinized

Question 12

Function and ex. location of stratified cuboidal

Answer 12

protection; ducts of large glands (sweat, salivary)

Question 13

Function and ex. location of stratified columnar

Answer 13

protection; ducts of large glands

Question 14

Function and ex. location of pseudostratified

Answer 14

looks like stratified but are all attached to the basement membrane; trachea, respiratory tract

Question 15

goblet cells

Answer 15

found in respiratory and intestinal tracts; secrets main component of mucus;

Question 16

where is psudostratified (ciliated) columnar epithelium found?

Answer 16

respiratory tract

Question 17

What is keratinized epithelium

Answer 17

layers of dead squamous cells which is waterproof and reduces evaporation from underlying tissues. they’re found on skin. keeps it moisturized.

Question 18

How can you tell a pseudostratified columnar epithelium

Answer 18

has goblets, cilated, lots of nucleus

Question 19

Transitional epithelium

Answer 19

blocks diffusion, urinary bladder, highly modified stratified squamous that forms the lining of only a few organs. these organs have ability to stretch. filled up, the epithelium is thin
