Tissues and Integument

Question 1

Simple Squamous Epithelial

Answer 1

Single layer of cells, gas exchange happens in lung alveoli (lower respiratory)

Question 2

Simple Cuboidal Epithelial

Answer 2

Single layer of squares or round cells with lumen, aids in filtering blood and making urine in kidneys

Question 3

Simple columnar Epithelial

Answer 3

Single layer of rectangular cells, aids in nutrient absorption

Question 4

Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelial

Answer 4

Fake layer, reaches the basement membrane, cleans air coming into the lungs (upper respiratory)

Question 5

Transitional Epithelial

Answer 5

Similar to stratified squamous, found in the bladder and tubes for urinary system

Question 6

Dense Fibrous Regular Connective Tissue

Answer 6

Packed with collagen, Fibers are parallel and have little blood flow, found in tendons and ligaments

Question 7

Loose Connective Tissue (Areolar Fibrous Tissue)

Answer 7

Located between epithelium tissues and blood layers, mostly random collagen fibers, attached one tissue to another tissue while giving flexibility

Question 8

Epidermis

Answer 8

keratinized stratified epithelial tissue, aids as a barrier, protects from invaders, and maintains water balance, youngest cell in the deepest layers.

Question 9

Stratum Corneum

Answer 9

the most superficial, protects and preserves water, 30 layers of flat dead keratinocytes, exfoliation occurs here

Question 10

Stratum Lucidum

Answer 10

the cells here are dying and are light, found in thick skin

Question 11

Stratum Granulosum

Answer 11

thin 3-5 keratinocytes pressed together firmly, creates an epidermal water barrier, prevents cells from above it from getting nutrients

Question 12

Stratum Spinosum

Answer 12

Deepest layers, have little spines, blood supply not as good, phagocytes are here

Question 13

Hair

Answer 13

tube of keratinized cells that grow from hair follicle in skin

Question 14

Pilus

Answer 14

one individual hair

Question 15

Shaft

Answer 15

Above skin surface (visible)

Question 16

Root

Answer 16

Hair within follicle

Question 17

Bulb

Answer 17

Swelling at the base in the dermis and hypodermis with living cells

Question 18

Exocrine Gland

Answer 18

Glands that secrete to the surface through ducts

Question 19

Sudoriferous

Answer 19

sweat

Question 20

sebaceous Gland

Answer 20

Oil glands

Question 21

Endocrine Gland

Answer 21

secrete hormones

Question 22

Hypodermis

Answer 22

Subcutaneous tissue, binds skin to underlying muscle, very vascular and pads the body

Question 23

Dermis

Answer 23

fibrous connective tissue, hair follicles, blood vessels, cutaneous glands and nerve endings embedded here,

Question 24

Papillary dermis

Answer 24

thin layer of loose areolar tissue, dermal papilla, small blood vessels and phagocytes here

Question 25

Reticular Dermis

Answer 25

dense irregular tissue, deeper and thicker layer, less ground substance and thicker collagen bundles
