Q

Found in the trachea.

A

Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium

20
Q

Several layers of epithelia cells and the underlying basal lamina found in the organs of the urinary system; cell can change shape from dome shaped to squamous when the bladder is stretched.

A

Transitional Epithelium

21
Q

Secrete their products (usually hormones) directly into the bloodstream.

A

Endocrine glands

22
Q

Secrete their products (ex: sweat) through an epithelium-lined duct.

A

Exocrine glands

23
Q

Products are packaged in secretory vesicles for release by exocytosis

A

Merocrine secretions

24
Q

Product accumulates in cytosol and is released when cell ruptures and dies (ex: oil.)

A

Holocrine Secretion

25
Also known as general connective tissue, it is widely distributed in the body. Types include loose, dense, reticular
Connective Tissue proper
26
Cells that ingest foreign cells, dead cells, and other cellular debris by phagocytosis
Phagocytes
27
Fat tissue- consists of fat-storing adipocytes that are the major energy reserve in the body. This tissue also provides warmth, shock absorption, and protection
Adipose tissue
28
The three types are hyaline, cartilage, fibrocartilage and elastic cartilage. The embryonic skeleton is composed of hyaline cartilage, the vertebral discs are fibrocartilage, and the tissue found the external ear is elastic cartilage. (Very stretchy.)
Cartilage
29
Provides protection and support. the extracellular matrix is inorganic calcium phosphate crystals, making bone one of the hardest substances in the body
Bone tissue
30
Red blood cells- these cells transport exygen through the body
Erythrocytes
31
Is found only in the hearth and is involuntary
Cardiac muscle tissue
32
Found attached to the skeleton. It is voluntary muscle and allows for movement.
Skeletal muscle tissue
33
Found in the digestive organs, uterus, etc. Involuntary, uninucleate, and non-striated.
Smooth muscle tissue
34
Cells capable of sending and receiveing electrical messages
Neurons
35
Support cells of the nervous tissue that are capable of mitosis (Unlike the neurons)
Neuroglial cells
36
Serous and synovial
True membranes
37
Fold over themselves giving the appearance of two layers; the outer parietal layer is in contact with the body wall, while the inner visceral layer covers the organ within the body cavity
Serous membranes
38
Line the cavities surround freely moveable joins such as the knee or shoulder
synovial membranes
39
Mucous and cutaneous memebranes
Membrane-like structures
40
Also called mucosae- line all body passages as components of the walls of hollow organs that open to the outside of the body.
Mucous membranes
41
Refers to the skin
Cutaneous membrane
42
Immature cells capable of replacing worn epithelial cells of the skin and digestive tract
Stem cells
43
Small pores formed by protein channels between adjacent cells that allow small substances to flow freely between each cell's cytoplasm
Gap junctions
44
Also known as occluding junctions, hold cells closed together such that space between is impermeable to movement of macromolecules
Tight junctions
45
Process of wound healing; dead and damaged cells are removed and replaced with new cells or tissues.
Tissue repair
46
Thin sheets of one or more tissues that line a body surface or cavity
Membrane
