Lab: tissues Flashcards
Epithelial function
covers surface and lines hollow structures
epithelial location
skin, bladder is lined with it, makes up swear, oil, and secretary glands
epithelial is classified by
arrangement and shape
1 layer
simple
multi layer
stratified
squamous
thin and flat
cuboidal
cube shape
columnar
column shape
transitional epithelium
always changing its shape found in bladder because of pressure in bladder
stratified function
protection/barrier, example=skin
simple function
filtration, secretion, absorption
connective tissue
most abundant tissue in the body
connective function
connect things together, support/protect, has immune function
examples of connective
small intestine, liver, bone, blood,collagen, elastic fiber, reticular
hyaline function
found where 2 surfaces will glide against each other
2 types of muscle
skeletal and cardiac
skeletal
attaches to bone/voluntary
simple squamous
fried egg
simple cuboidal
not a perfect square ever
simple columnar
long columns with a nucleus at the end of the rectangle
stratified squamous
no shape really, just squeezed.
nervous tissue function
generate electrical signal
