Q

Glands are made up of a group of cells that secrete fluid through ducts

A

glandular epithelium

18
Q

Secrete substances outward through a duct (sweat glands)

A

Exocrine Gland

19
Q

Ductless glands that secrete hormones through the bloodstream (thyroid glands)

A

Endocrine Gland

20
Q

Cells excrete the products via exocytosis (sweat gland)

A

Merocrine Gland

21
Q

A portion of the cell pinches off with the secreted products (mammary gland)

A

Apocrine Gland

22
Q

Cells rupture and spill products into the duct (sometimes blocking it and creating zits) (sebaceous-oil glands in skin)

A

Holocrine Glands

23
Q

Complexity and how substances are secreted

A

2 ways glands are classified

24
Q

proper, cartilage, bone, blood

A

4 types of connective tissue

25
nervous, muscle, connective, epithelium
4 types of tissue
26
provides support and binds other tissues together, provides insulation and protection, some are able to transport
connective tissue
27
the stem cells that all connective tissues come from
mesenchyme
28
presence of blood vessels
vascularity
29
areolar, adipose, reticular
loose connective tissue
30
regular, irregular, elastic
dense connective tissue
31
mostly open space, holds water and salt, found under epithelium and around organs
areolar
32
compromised of fat cells, have large vacuoles that contain fat/oil
adipose
33
contains reticular fibers, which create a stiff framework that support other cells
reticular
34
collagen fibers are arranged in one direction, provides "tensile strength" like a rope, found in tendons and ligaments
regular
35
collagen fibers are arranged in many directions, provides strength in multiple directions, found in capsules around organs
irregular
36
provides flexible cushioning, found between vertebrae and in arteries
elastic (connective tissue)
37
doesn't have nerves or blood vessels hyaline, fibro cartilage, elastic
cartilage
38
glassy looking, firm ground substance with lacuna (space for cells), few collagen fibers, found in larynx, bridge of nose, and ribs
hyaline
39
contains lots of collagen, mostly running parallel, found in intervertebral spaces
fibro cartilage
40
highly flexible, more elastic fibers, found in outer ear and tip of nose
elastic (cartilage)
