review ch 5, tissues

AB
tissue typesepithelial, connective, muscle, nervous
epithelial tissuecovers organs, lines cavities,opens to outside or open space internally
epithelial tissuefunctions in protection, absorption, secretion,excretion, filtration
simple squamoussingle, flattened cell, tight fit; diffusion, filtration
simple cuboidalsingle, square shape nuclei, cover ovaries,kidney, ducts, salivary
simple cuboidalfunctions in secretion, absorption
simple columnarsingle, elongated, nuclei at basement;,lines uterus,stomach,intestines
simple columnartissue thick, protects tissues, microvilli, goblet cells secret mucus
glandular epithelium2, cells that secrete substances into ducts or body fluids
glandular epitheliumexocrine, endocrine; for secretion
endocrinesecrete products into body fluids or blood, ductless gland
exocrinesecrete products into ducts that open to internal or exteranl surface
merocrinetype of exocrine secretion, release fluid,(salivary gland), most common
apocrinetype of exocrine secretion, lose small portion of cells with secretion(mammory gland)
holocrinetype of exocrine secretion, release entire cells,(sebaceous gland)
serous fluidwatery, high concentration of enzymes; from inner linings
mucusthicker, glycoprotein, from inner linings(digestive, respiratory)
carcinomacancer starts in epithellium, most begin on surfaces that contact external environment
connective tissueweighs most, binds structures, support, framework
fibroblasttype of fixed cell, most common, star shaped
machrophagetype of cell, (histocyte), in WBC, fight infection
masttype of cell, large, near blood vessels, release Heparin, Histamine
type of cellsfibroblast, machrophage, mast
type of fiberscollagenous, elastic, reticular
collagenous fiberprotein collagen, high tensile strength, hold stuctures together
ligamentshold bone to bone
tendonshold muscle to bone
elastic fiberprotein elastin, weaker than collagenous, very elastic
reticular fibervery thin,highly branched, form delicate networks, collagenous fibers
types of connective tissueadipose, cartilage, bone, blood
adipose tissuefat, under skin, between muscles, behind eyes, abd., heart
adipose functionsinsulation, protection, stores energy
cartilagerigid, support, framework, attachments, protection
cartilageheals slowly, chondrocytes(cartilage cells)
types of cartilagehyaline, elastic, fibrocartilage
bonemost rigid, hardness due to mineral salts, more collagen
bone functionssupport, protection, attachment, formation blood cells
osteocytebone cell
bonevery active tissue, injured bone heals rapidly
bloodRBC, WBC, platelets
plasmafluid with RBC, WBC and platelets
RBCtransport gases; entirely in blood vessels
WBCfight infection
plateletsinvolved in blood clotting
muslce tissuecontractile, can shorten and thicken to cause movement
types of muscle tissueskeletal, smooth, cardiac
skeletal musclevoluntary, striated, attach muscle to bone; many nuclei
smooth musclelacks striations, involuntary; lines walls of stomach,intestine,bladder,uterus, 1nucleus
cardiac muscleonly in heart, striated end to end; 1nucleus, involuntary
intercalated discwhere touches another cell; only in cardiac tissue
nervous tissuein brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves
nervous tissue functioncoordination of body, no reproduction of cells
neuronsnerve cells
