4 primary adult tissues
M usle
E pithelial
N ervous
C onnective
Characteristics of connective tissue
Wide range of vascularity
(Cartilage, avascualr —> bone, rich blood supply)
Cells+ extra cellular matrix
(Ground substance + fibers)
Three embryonic germ layers
Ectoderm (outside) - et and NT
Mesoderm (middle) - et, CT and MT
Endoderm ( inside) - et
Ground Substance
Amorphous material that fills spaces between cells and fibers
Molecular drive for nutrients and gasses to diffuse between cells and blood capillaries
White Blood Cells that respond to tissue damage
A type of wandering cells
Mast:
Secrete heparin to prevent clotting
Secrete histamine to promote inflammation
Macrophages: (phagocytes)
Eat foreign materials
Collagen Fibers
Composed of protein collagen
High tensile strength to matrix
PINK
Are a CT
Elastic Fibers
Composed of protein elastin
Rubbery resiliency to matrix
Purple
Skin, lungs, blood vessels
Are a type of CT
Reticular Fibers
Fine collagenous fibers
Delicate meteors
Basement Membranes
Are a type of CT
Exocrine gland
Secretes into a duct
Many- Simple Compound (branched) Tubular Alveolar (saclike)
Glandular epithelium
Loose Areolar CT
Gel like with fibroblasts, collagen, elastic fibers
Below epithelium, covers ventral organs
Diffusion, cushions
Adipose tissue
CT proper
Fat cells
Under skin, around eyeballs
Energy storage, insulation, protection
Reticular CT
Proper
Reticular fibers w/in loose ground substance and reticulocytes
Basement membranes, lymphatic organs
(Lymph nodes, thymus, spleen)
Support
