What is eosin
A negatively charged acidic dye that stains the cytoplasm typically appear in red or pink
What is hematoxylin
A basic dye that stans the nucleus typically appear in purplish blue
What is the function and location of simple squamous epithelium cells
Allows materials to pass through by diffusion and filtration and secretes lubricating substances found in air sacs and the lining of the heart, blood vessels, and lymphatic vessels
What is the function and location of simple cuboidal epithelium
Secretes and absorbs found in ducts, small glands, and kidney tubules
What is the function and location of simple columnar epithelium
Absorbs and secretes mucous and enzymes found in bronchi, uterine tubes, uterus, GIT, and bladder
What is the function and location of pseudostratified columnar epithelium
Secretes mucus and ciliated tissue moves mucus found in the trachea and URT
What is the function and location of stratified squamous epithelium
Protects agains abrasion found in esphagus, mouth, and vagina
What is the function and location of stratified cuboidal epithelium
Protective tissue found in sweat glands, salivary glands, and mammary glands
What is the function and location of stratified columnar epithelium
Secretes and protects found in male urethra and ducts of some glands
What is the function and location of transitional epithelium
Allows urinary organs to expand and stretch found in bladder, urethra, and ureters
What is a physical difference btw a follicle and a CL
A follicle has a fluid filled cavity
What is the tunica dartos muscle
Located near the the smooth muscle of the scrotum it regulates the temp of the testicles which promotes spermatogenesis
What is the stratum subdarticum
Loosely woven layer of white connective tissue btw tunica dartos and tunica vaginalis parietal
What is the visceral vaginal tunic
Covers the testis and epididymis
What is the parietal vaginal tunic
Covering the inner aspect of the scrotal wall
What is the rete testis
Located in the hilum of the testicle that carries sperm from the seminiferous tubules to the efferent ducts
What is the cremaster muscle
Surrounds the testis assisting in thermoregulation of the testis by pulling the testis in and out of the body
What is the ductus deferens
A muscular tube that is located w/in the spermatic cord that transports spermatozoa from the ejaculatory ducts
What is the vesicular glands
Located behind the bladder that produce seminal fluid
What is the prostate gland
Located below the bladder that produce seminal fluid
