A23-TISSUES I VOCAB

ASSIGNED MONDAY (9/25)--LOG 15 MINUTES BY 10 PM THURSDAY

AB
SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHLIUMSingle layer of flat cells / Usually forms membranes - Lines body cavities / Lines lungs and capillaries.
SIMPLE CUBOIDAL EPITHELIUMSingle layer of cube-like cells / Common in glands and their ducts . Forms walls of kidney tubules / Covers the ovaries
SIMPLE COLUMNAR EPITHELIUMSingle layer of tall cells / Often includes goblet cells, which produce mucus / Lines digestive tract
stratified squamous epitheliumFunctions as a protective covering where friction is common Locations: lining of the mouth, skin, esophagus
stratified cuboidal epitheliumTwo layers of cuboidal cells Functions in protection Rare in human body Found mainly in ducts of large glands
TISSUESGroups of cells with similar structure and function
Epithelium, Connective tissue, Nervous tissue, MuscleName the four primary types of body tissues.
Body coverings, body linings, glandular tissueWhere are epithelial tissues found?
EpitheliumCells fit closely together / Tissue layer always has one free surface / Lower surface is bound by a basement membrane / Avascular (no blood supply) / Regenerate easily
COLUMNARcolumnlike shape of epithelium
CUBOIDALcube shape of epithelium
SQUAMOUSflattened shape of epithelium
STRATIFIEDmultiple layers of epithelium tissue
SIMPLEsingle layer of epithelium tissue
stratified columnar epitheliumSurface cells are columnar, cells underneath vary in size and shape Functions in protection Rare in human body Found mainly in ducts or large glands
- protection - absorption - filtration - secretionWhat are the functions of epithelial tissue?
To protect, support, insulate, and bind other tissues of the body. EX: bones are composed of connective tissue (osseous or bone tissue) and they protect and support other body tissues and organs.What is the primary function of connective tissue?
areolar connective tissueA soft packaging material that cushions and protects body organs.
adipose tissueProvides insulation for body tissues and a source of stored energy.
skeletal, cardiac, smooth3 Types of muscle tissue
neuronsnerve cells
FIBROUStype of connecting material for protection, support, padding, and filtration.
SKELETAL MUSCLE TISSUETYPE OF TISSUE THAT IS STRIATED AND VOLUNTARY
SMOOTH MUSCLE TISSUETYPE OF TISSUE THAT IS NONSTRIATED, INVOLUNTARY, OR VISCERAL
CARDIAC MUSCLE TISSUETYPE OF TISSUE THAT IS STRIATED INVOLUNTARY
SKELETAL MUSCLE TISSUEMOVES MUSCLE THAT ATTACHES TO BONES, EYE MUSCLES, AND THE FIRST PART OF SWALLOWING
CARDIAC MUSCLE TISSUECAUSES HEART MUSCLE CONTRACTION
elastic fiberstype of protein fiber in connective tissue; has the ability to stretch and and the ability to return to original shape; found in skin
reticular fiberstype of protein fiber in connective tissue; resists physical stress; least abundant of all the fibers
areolar tissueloose connective tissue; most common connective tissue;functions include being a structural anchor to body parts
reticular tissueloose connective tissue; contains reticular fibers; makes a 3D network for support in the liver and spleen
cartilageconnective tissue: more solid than connective tissue proper; has chondrocytes and perichondium
hyaline cartilageconnective tissue: most abundant type of cartilage; found in the upper portion of the respiratory tract (trachea and bronci), ends of bones and ribs, skeleton of a fetus
boneconnective tissue: has osteocytes
nerve tissuetype of tissue that functions to control
muscle tissuetype of tissue that functions in movement
edemaPuffiness when areolar tissue soaks up excess fluid
cuboidalIt is both a secretory and protective tissue
squamousmain protective tissue of the body
areolar tissuetissue's chief function is to bind parts of the body together
osseusdense connective tissue that forms tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and bone
basalbottom
lateralsides
adipocytesfat cells
membranesPhysical barriers, line or cover portions of the body
ChondrocyteCartilage cell
fasciaGeneral name for the fiberohs connective tissue masses located throughout the body
goblet cella column-shaped cell found in the respiratory and intestinal tracts, which secretes the main component of mucus.
