Q

Simple squamous is found

A

where absorption takes place or where a slick surface is required to reduce friction

17
Q

mesothelium

A

a specialized epithelium that does not contact the outside world, they line the ventral body cavities, the pleura peritoneum and pericardium

18
Q

endothelium

A

simple epithelia that line the heart and all blood vessels.

19
Q

cuboidal epithelial

A

provide limited protection, and are located where secretions are prominent

20
Q

stratified epithelial cells are rare but can be found in the

A

sweat and mammary glands

21
Q

simple columnar is found

A

in areas of sceretion and absorption and function to protect lining from chemical stress (intestines)

22
Q

this secretion is where the product is released from secretory vesicles by exocytosis

A

merocrine secretion

23
Q

this secretion involves the loss of cytoplasm as well as the secretory product

A

apocrine secretion

24
Q

which secretion involves when the cell becomes packed with secretory material and then bursts liberating the material - destroying the cell

25
connective tissue includes
bone fat blood
26
connective tissue share 3 components
specialized cells cellular protein fibers fluid called the ground substance
27
what is the matrix?
ground substance and the extracellular fibers
28
there are 3 classifications of connective tissue
connective tissue proper fluid connective tissues supportive connective tissues
29
cells found in connective tissues vary from ______ cells to cells that are ________ into the tissue to perform a needed function
permanent | imported
30
Cells found in connective tissue:
``` fibroblasts macrophages adipocytes mesenchymal cells melanocytes mast cells lymphocytes eosinophils neutrophils ```
31
_____ are the most prevalent permanent cells in the connective tissue proper
fibroblasts
