89
Q

epithelium consists of

A

basement membrane and tightly packed cells

90
Q

simple epithelia

A

single layer of cells

91
Q

stratified epithelia

A

two or more layers of cells

92
Q

squamous

A

flattened

93
Q

cuboidal

A

cube-shaped

94
Q

columnar

A

column shaped

95
Q

simple squamous epithelium

A

single layered flat cells

provides a barrier through which gasses and fluids can be exchanged
produces serious fluid

example: air sacs of lungs, inner lining of ventral body cavities and blood vessels, kidney glomeruli

96
Q

simple cuboidal epithelium

A

single layer of cube-shaped cells

absorption, secretion of mucus and other substances

examples: kidney tubules, lower respiratory passages, thyroid, salivary, and mammary glands

97
Q

simple columnar epithelium

A

single layer of column like rectangular cells, ovoid, basal nuclei

absorption, secretion of mucus and other substances, propulsion of egg through uterine tube

example: digestive tract from stomach to anus, uterine tube, gallbladder

98
Q

psuedostratified columnar epithelium

A

single layer of columnar cells of different heights giving a stratified appearance, contain cilia

secretes mucus and propels it with ciliary motion

examples: nasal cavity, upper respiratory passages

99
Q

stratified squamous keratinized epithelium

A

multiple layers of squamous cells, contain dead and falky apical cells with keratin, cuboidal to squamous shaped basal cells

protects from mechanical stresses and microorganisms, prevents most water loss through skin

examples: epidermis

100
Q

stratified squamous nonkeratinized epithelium

A

apical cells living and very flat, cells are more cuboidal towards basal layers

protects from mechanical stresses and microorganisms

examples: mouth, pharynx, superior larynx, esophagus, vagina, anal canal

101
Q

stratified cuboidal epithelium

A

two or more layers of cuboidal cells

some absorption and secretion

examples: ducts of certain glands including sweat glands and mammary glands

102
Q

stratified columnar epithelium

A

two or more layers of columnar cells

protection, some absorption and secretion

examples: ducts of certain glands including salivary glands, conjunctiva, parts of male urethra

103
Q

transitional epithlium

A

multiple layers of cells, apical cells are dome-shaped when relaxed and flattened when stretched

protection, gives tissues added distensibility

examples: urinary bladder, ureter, urethra

104
Q

fibroblasts

A

produce protein gibers in the extracellular matrix

105
Q

what are the 4 types of connective tissue proper

A

loose connective tissue
dense connective tissue (irregular, regular, elastic)
reticular connective tissue
adipose connective tissue

106
Q

loose connective tissue consists of

A

fibroblasts, all three types of protein fibers embedded in a gel-like ground substance plus scattered macrophages, mast cells, and fat cells

107
Q

loose connective tissue is usually found in

A

walls of hollow organs and membranes lining the body cavities

108
Q

dense connective tissue consists of

A

protein fibers

109
Q

what are the three types of dense CT

A

regular
irregular
elastic

110
Q

where is dense regular ct found

A

in tendons and ligaments and resists undirectional stress because of parallel arrangement of collagin fibers

111
Q

dense irregular connective is found

A

in the deep layer of thick skin and around joints

helps resist stress from every direction because of the haphazard arrangment of collagen fibers

112
Q

elastic connective tissue

A

allows stretch and recoil

113
Q

where is elastic CT found

A

in large blood vessels and certain ligaments

114
Q

reticular tissue

A

helps form structure of many organs and supports small structures such as blood vessels and leukocytes

found in most lymphoid organs like lymph nodes, tonsils, and spleen

contains reticular fibers and leukocytes

115
Q

adipose ct

A

consist primarily of adipocytes and protein fibers

functions in insulation, warmth, shock, absorption, and energy storage

found deep to the skin in the abdomen, breasts, hips, buttocks, and thighs, also surrounds heart and abdominal organs
