Q

What is cell shapes in lining epithelia?

A
Squamous= exchange, barrier and protection
Cuboidal= have microvilli - secretion + absorption 
Columnar= have cillia/microvilli - secretion + absorption

male urethra- rare

24
Q

Transitional epithelium- location?

A

bladder, urethra and ureter

25
Transitional epithelium- function?
allow urinary to stretch
26
True or false- endocrine lack duct
true
27
true or false- exocrine secrete hormones
false- endocrine do- exocrine secrete sweat, oil and saliva
28
What are the types of exocrine secretions?
merocrine, apocrine, holocrine
29
Which of the exocrine secretions is most damaging?
holocrine
30
What is merocrine secretion?
secretory vesicle- exocytosis. (e.g pancreatic acinar cell)
31
What is apocrine secretion?
portion is pinched off to apical region (e.g mammary gland and ears)
32
What is holocrine secretion?
mature cell dies- cell death- apotosis (e.g skin and eyes)
33
What are two types of exocrine secretion not in the blood?
autocrine and paracrine.
34
Whats the difference of autocrine and paracrine?
autocrine: same tissue- affect its own cells- self signal Paracrine: neighbor signal- travel through connective tissue (e.g histamine)
35
What is categories of exocrine glands?
simple/ compound (branched/ unbranched) | secretory protein tubular, branched, alveoler.
36
What is simple tubular examples?
intestine glands
37
What is simple coiled tubular examples?
sweat gland
38
What is simple branched tubular examples?
gastric, mucus, tongue and duodenum
39
What is simple alveoler examples?
not found in adult
40
What is simple branched alveolor examples?
oil glands
41
What is compound tubular examples?
mucous glands, males reproductive system and testes
42
What is compound alveolor examples?
mammary gland
43
What is compound tubuloalveolar examples?
salivary, respiratory passage and pancreas
