20
Q

Name the Tissue

-Location: Non-keratized type:

*skin, mouth, esophagus, vagina.

Keratinized type:

*epidermis of the skin

Function: protection against mechanical stress and abrasion.

A

Stratisfied Squamous Epithelium

21
Q

YES OR NO:

Is Stratisfied Squamous Epithelium non-keratinized?

22
Q

Name the Tissue

  • Location: urinary bladder, ureters, urethra
  • Function: streches readily and permits distention.
A

Transitional Epithelium

23
Q

Surface is toward a lumen (open space)

24
Q

Surfaces are toward other epithelial cells

25
Surface is toward the basement membrane
Basal
26
Cells are tightly packed and attached by
cell juncitons, (tight junctions and desmosomes)
27
Epithelial tissue is
avascular
28
Does epithelial tissue lack a nervous system?
yes!
29
Name the junction: A zip- lock seal intestines
Tight junctions
30
Name the junctions: Velco seals holds cell together
Adherence junctions
31
Name the Junctions: tunnel for larger molecules
Gap Junction
32
Name the junctions: dots of Velco
Desmosomes
33
Name the junctions: Welcro to basement membranes
Hemidesmosomes
34
Name the Junction - Keep substances from passing between cells. - Line simple epithelia \*columnar epithelia in the intestine
Tight Junctions
35
Name the Junction ## Footnote –Allow small molecules and ions to pass through to adjacent cells –Found in most epithelial cells \*Nerve and Cardiac cells
Gap junctions
36
Name the Junctions: ## Footnote –Mechanical protein links which bind cells together in tissues subject to considerable stretching •Found in skin, heart, muscle, and uterus
Desmosomes
37
Name the junction: ## Footnote -Mechanical protein links which bind cells to the basement membrane in most tissue
•Hemidesmosomes
38
Name the junction: ## Footnote –Weak glycoprotein bonds which assist tight junctions in binding epithelial cells together
•Adherance Junctions
39
Types of Glandular Epithelia 1. 2. 3. 4.
–Endocrine glands –Exocrine glands –Unicellular exocrine glands –Multicellular exocrine glands
40
Name the gland (Grandular) ## Footnote –Ductless glands –Secrete hormones that travel through lymph or blood to target organs
Endocrine Glands
41
Name the gland (GLandular) ## Footnote –More numerous than endocrine glands –Secrete products into ducts –Secretions released onto body surfaces (skin) or into body cavities –Examples include mucous, sweat, oil, and salivary glands
Exocrine Glands
42
NAme the glands (GRadular) ## Footnote –Goblet cell (found in respiratory tract)
•Unicellular exocrine glands
43
Name the glands (GRadular) ## Footnote –Are composed of a duct and a secretory unit –Classified according to: * Duct type (simple or compound) * Structure of their secretory units (tubular, alveolar, or tubuloalveolar)
•Multicellular exocrine glands
