Unit 3 tissues Flashcards
The Pituitary Gland
Parts:
Adenohypophysis (Pars tuberalis, Pars distalis, Pars intermedia)
Neurohypophysis (Pars nervosa and Infundibulum)
Between = hypophyseal cleft.
Cells of the pars distalis
Acidophils (Somatotropes and Lactotropes)
Basophils (Thyrotropes, Gonadotropes, Corticotropes)
Chemophobes (either reserve or degranulated forms of acidophils or basophils)
The Pineal gland
Ependymal cells
BRAIN SAND = calcium phosphate or calcium carbonate deposits.
The thyroid gland
Follicular cells and parafollicular cells
Parathyroid gland
Two = external and internal glands
Chief cells and oxyphil cells
The adrenal gland
Cortex (zona glomerulosa, zona fasciculata, zona reticularis)
Medulla
Islet of Langerhauns of the Endocrine Pancreas
Alpha, Beta, C, delta, and F cells
Enteroendocrine cells of the small intestine
Also found in the pylorus and large intestine
Transverse section of lactating mammary gland
Alveoli and duct system
Non-lactating mammary gland
Mammary gland longitudinal section
Rosette of Furstenberg
Annular fold
Teat sphincter
Kidney
Cortex medullary rays (thick portions of loop and collecting tubule)
Cortical labyrinth (proximal convoluted tubule, distal convoluted tubule, glomerulus, arched collecting tubule, macula densa)
Medulla outer zone (thick and thin portion of renal loop and collecting ducts)
Medulla inner zone (thin portions of the renal loop, collecting duct, papillary duct)
Urinary Bladder
