LESSON 1 Flashcards
refers to the broad & complex scientific field which seeks to
understand the mechanism of injury to cells, tissues, body’s
General Pathology
“Body’s ability to heal and respond to injury”
General Pathology
deals w/ the irreversible cessation of the
vital function of the brain, heart, and lungs
Somatic death
comes after the somatic death
Molecular death
- a study of microscopic structure of tissues / the
study of tissues and cells under the microscope
Histology
- forms exoskeleton
ECTODERM (external layer)
- develops into organs
MESODERM (middle layer)
- forms the inner lining organs
ENDODERM (internal layer)
Example of ectoderm
Skin cells of epidermis
○ Neuron on brain
○ Pigment cells
SNP
Example of mesoderm
Cardiac muscle cells
○ Skeletal muscle cells
○ Tubule cells of the kidney
○ Red blood cells
○ Smooth muscle cells (in gut)
CSTRS
Example of endoderm
Lung cells (alveolar cell)
○ Thyroid cells
○ Digestive cells (pancreatic cell)

4 TYPES OF TISSUES
EPITHELIAL
CONNECTIVE
MUSCULAR
NERVOUS
3 LAYERS OF ORGAN TISSUE
ECTODERM
MESODERM
ENDODERM
Example of epithelial
● lining of GI tract organs & other
hollow organs
● skin surface (epidermis)
Example of connective
● fat & other soft padding tissue
● Bone
● tendon
example of muscular
● Cardiac
● Smooth
● Skeletal
Example if nervous tissue
● Brain
● Spinal cord
● Nerves
The major ingredient in all Connective Tissue:
COLLAGEN
4 DIVISIONS OF CONNECTIVE TISSUE
CONNECTIVE TISSUE PROPER
CARTILAGE
BONE
BLOOD
CONNECTIVE TISSUE PROPER
example
Loose - Areolar, Adipose, Reticular
● Dense - Regular, Irregular, Elastic
