Q

Transitional epithelium

A

Many layers of cuboidal cells
Called transitional epithelium because cells undergo a transition in shape and become flat as urine bladder fills with urine
Located in bladder
Permits distention and recoil

Q

Blood

A

Plasma – liquid matrix
Erythrocytes-red cells, carries o and co2
Leukocytes- White cells, fight infection
Thrombocytes- platelets, blood clots
In blood veins and heart
Transports nutrients, wastes, hormones. Temp regulation, ph balance, bleeding infection defense

16
Q

Hyaline cartilage

A

Matrix Consists of collagen fibers and chondrocytes, conveys a glassy appearance

17
Q

Skeletal muscle

A

Long cells, cylindrical Straighted and contain multiple peripherally located nuclei, voluntarily controlled
Moves/Stabilizes skeletal position, guards entrances/exits to respiratory and digestion

18
Q

Cardiac muscle

A

Cells are short, branched y – shaped and Straighted
Usually w/ 1 nucleus
Cells are interconnected by intercalated discs.
Located In heart
Circulates blood maintain blood pressure

20
Q

Carcinoma

A

Cancer of epithelial cells

21
Q

Sarcoma

A

Cancer of connective tissue (not common)

22
Q

Leukemia

A

Cancer of the bone marrow/blood (common in youth)

23
Q

Lymphoma

A

Cancer of lymph and immune

24
Q

Neuroglioma

A

Affects the nervous system and brain

25
Benign tumor
Has border, can be surgically removed, does not spread, grow slowly, cause problems by causing pressure on organs
26
Malignant tumor
Poor borders, grows fast, invade other tissues •infiltration- may invade other tissues •metastasis-tumor cells break off and travel through the blood or lymph to other organs
27
Surgery
To remove the tumor, or to relieve pressure on other organs
28
Radiation
Use of radiation and a controlled manner to destroy temperature sent of cancer in each treatment
29
Immunotherapy
Manipulating the bodies own immune system response to attack the cancer cells
30
Caution
``` Change in bowel habits A sore that doesn't heal Unusual bleed/discharge Thickening or lumps Indigestion or hard to swallow Obvious change in wart/mole Nagging cough/hoarseness ```
31
Exocrine gland
Glenn's composed of cuboidal cells, exiting Collins contain small tubes call ducks which move fluid into body surfaces Located in silvery and sweat glands Make sweat and spit, enzymes, tears
32
Endocrine gland
Composed of cuboidal cells. No ducks, they secrete products and hormone into blood Located in ovaries, pituitary, pancreas, adrenal gland, testes, thyroid Used for hormones
33
Smooth muscle
Short, spindle-shaped, not straighted, one nucleus, involuntary Located in blood vessels walls of digestive,respiratory, urinary and reproductive organs Movesfood, urine and reproductive tract secretions Controls diameters of respiratory passages Regulates tissue blood flow
