group of cells that share a simular function
tissue
the study of tissue
histology
4 basic types of tissue
epithelial
connective
muscle
nervous
forms boundaries between different environments, protects, secretes, absorbs, and filters
epithelial tissue
supports protects and binds other tissues together includes bones, blood, and adipose tissue
connective tissue
contracts to cause movement-cardiac, skeletal and smooth
muscle tissue
controls/internal communication transmits impulses for communication consists of neurons and glial cells
nervous tissue
2 forms of epithelial tissue
covering and lining epithelial
grandular epithelial
covering and lining epithelial
on internal and external surfaces-skin
grandular epithelia
secretory tissue in glands-salivary glands
6 functions of epithelial tissue
protection
absorption
filtration
excretion
secretion
sensory recptor
epithelial tissue is
avascular-no blood supply
innerverted-nerve supply
have highly regenerative capacities
epithelial cells
two types of simple squamous epithelium
endothelium
mesothelium
the lining of lympatic vessels, blood vessels, and heart
endothelium
serous membranes in the ventral body cavity
mesothelium
cells are flattened latterally and cytoplasm is sparse
simple epithelium
functions where rapid diffusion is a priority-kidneys, lungs involved in absorption, sceretion, or filtration processes
simple epithelium
single layer of cells cubed shaped
simple cuboidol epithelium
involved in secretion and absorption
kidney tubeluels, smallest ducts of glands-ovary surface
simple cuboidal epithelium
single layer of tall closely packed cells
some have microvilli and some have cillia
some have layer of goblet cells-mucus secreting
simple columnar epithelium
involved un absorption and secretion of muscus, enzymes, and other substances
found in the digestice tract gallbladder, ducts of some glands bronchi and uterine tubes
simple columner epithelium
single layer of cells appear to be multilayered and stratified differing heights
many cells are ciliated
pseudostratified columnar epithelium
involved in secretion particularly of mucus-ciliary action
located mostly in upper respiratory tract
nonciliated type-males sperm carryingducts and ducts of large glands
pseudostratified columner epithelium
