Q

-cubelike/wedge shape, uniform in appearance
-form major glands, kidneys
-involved in secretion of fluids or reabsorption

A

simple cuboidal epithelium

25
-tall columns anchored to basement membrane, free edge may be ciliated or smooth, nuclei frequently aligned in a row -frequently contain mucus secreting goblet cells -digestive tract -uterine tubes
simple columnar epithelium
26
-look layered but all attach to basement membrane, nuclei are at different levels -lining of respiratory passages (mucus traps dust particles)
pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium
27
-multiple layers, protects underlying tissue from abrasion, can be keratinized or non-keratinized - lines mouth, vaginal canal, outermost layers of skin
stratified squamous epithelium
28
-able to stretch -lining of bladder and urinary system organs
transitional epithelium
29
striated, voluntary, multinucleate
skeletal musle
30
in skeletal muscle they are elongated, cigar like occur in periphery of cell
nuclei
31
-non-striated, uninucleate, spindle shaped, involuntary -found in digestive tract, uterus, blood vessels
smooth muscle
32
-found only in heart -striated, involuntary, uninucleate-oval shaped, central nucleus -intercalated discs join cells -transmit electrical impulses that cause contraction -cells branched
cardiac muscle
33
3 parts of neuron
dendrites, cell body, axon
34
what are the support cells in nervous tissue
glial cells
35
cell body
soma
36
highly cellular, store lipids in large vacuoles, nucleus and cytoplasm stay at cell perimeter
adipose tissue
37
made of mineral component and collagenous fibers, has osteon and central canal
bone
38
large circular regions in bone
osteon
39
what kind of tissue is blood?
connective
40
blood matrix
plasma
41
blood cells are
red blood cells and white blood cells
42
RBCs (pink)
erythrocytes
43
WBCs (purple)
leukocytes
44
cell fragments in blood
platelets
45
-most common type of cartilage -found at ends of bones, between ribs, end of nose, respiratory passages -clear glassy appearance; has chondrocytes and collagenous fibers
hyaline
46
outer lining of cartilage
perichondrium
47
-chondrocytes and collagenous fibers; more collagenous fibers than hyaline -found in areas that take stresses- invertebral discs, meniscus, symphysis pubis
fibrocartilage
48
-contains elastin in addition to collagen fibers -found in external ear; larynx
elastic cartilage
49
fibers are parallel, found in tendons and ligaments
dense regular connective tissue
50
fibers are random; found in white of eye, deep layers of skin
dense irregular connective tissue
51
fibroblasts secrete fibers that mature into
fibroblasts
52
fibers- protein elastin fibroblasts secrete fibers that mature into occurs in walls of arteries
elastic connective tissue
53
wrapping of organs, muscles, at meetings of two organs collagenous fibers, elastic and reticular fibers, fibroblasts, fibrocytes, mast cells, macrophages
loose connective tissue
54
stages of mitosis
prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, interphase
55
chromatin threads coil and condense nuclear membrane disappears, spindles appear
prophase
56
chromosomes line up at middle of cells
metaphase
57
chromatids separate to the poles
anaphase
58
cytokinesis, new membrane forms, new nucleus forms, spindles disappear
telophase
59
the period when a cell is performing it's normal activities
interphase
