| A | B |
| SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHLIUM | Single layer of flat cells / Usually forms membranes - Lines body cavities / Lines lungs and capillaries. |
| SIMPLE CUBOIDAL EPITHELIUM | Single layer of cube-like cells / Common in glands and their ducts . Forms walls of kidney tubules / Covers the ovaries |
| SIMPLE COLUMNAR EPITHELIUM | Single layer of tall cells / Often includes goblet cells, which produce mucus / Lines digestive tract |
| stratified squamous epithelium | Functions as a protective covering where friction is common Locations: lining of the mouth, skin, esophagus |
| stratified cuboidal epithelium | Two layers of cuboidal cells Functions in protection Rare in human body Found mainly in ducts of large glands |
| TISSUES | Groups of cells with similar structure and function |
| Epithelium, Connective tissue, Nervous tissue, Muscle | Name the four primary types of body tissues. |
| Body coverings, body linings, glandular tissue | Where are epithelial tissues found? |
| Epithelium | Cells fit closely together / Tissue layer always has one free surface / Lower surface is bound by a basement membrane / Avascular (no blood supply) / Regenerate easily |
| COLUMNAR | columnlike shape of epithelium |
| CUBOIDAL | cube shape of epithelium |
| SQUAMOUS | flattened shape of epithelium |
| STRATIFIED | multiple layers of epithelium tissue |
| SIMPLE | single layer of epithelium tissue |
| stratified columnar epithelium | Surface 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 - secretion | What 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 tissue | A soft packaging material that cushions and protects body organs. |
| adipose tissue | Provides insulation for body tissues and a source of stored energy. |
| skeletal, cardiac, smooth | 3 Types of muscle tissue |
| neurons | nerve cells |
| FIBROUS | type of connecting material for protection, support, padding, and filtration. |
| SKELETAL MUSCLE TISSUE | TYPE OF TISSUE THAT IS STRIATED AND VOLUNTARY |
| SMOOTH MUSCLE TISSUE | TYPE OF TISSUE THAT IS NONSTRIATED, INVOLUNTARY, OR VISCERAL |
| CARDIAC MUSCLE TISSUE | TYPE OF TISSUE THAT IS STRIATED INVOLUNTARY |
| SKELETAL MUSCLE TISSUE | MOVES MUSCLE THAT ATTACHES TO BONES, EYE MUSCLES, AND THE FIRST PART OF SWALLOWING |
| CARDIAC MUSCLE TISSUE | CAUSES HEART MUSCLE CONTRACTION |
| elastic fibers | type of protein fiber in connective tissue; has the ability to stretch and and the ability to return to original shape; found in skin |
| reticular fibers | type of protein fiber in connective tissue; resists physical stress; least abundant of all the fibers |
| areolar tissue | loose connective tissue; most common connective tissue;functions include being a structural anchor to body parts |
| reticular tissue | loose connective tissue; contains reticular fibers; makes a 3D network for support in the liver and spleen |
| cartilage | connective tissue: more solid than connective tissue proper; has chondrocytes and perichondium |
| hyaline cartilage | connective 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 |
| bone | connective tissue: has osteocytes |
| nerve tissue | type of tissue that functions to control |
| muscle tissue | type of tissue that functions in movement |
| edema | Puffiness when areolar tissue soaks up excess fluid |
| cuboidal | It is both a secretory and protective tissue |
| squamous | main protective tissue of the body |
| areolar tissue | tissue's chief function is to bind parts of the body together |
| osseus | dense connective tissue that forms tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and bone |
| basal | bottom |
| lateral | sides |
| adipocytes | fat cells |
| membranes | Physical barriers, line or cover portions of the body |
| Chondrocyte | Cartilage cell |
| fascia | General name for the fiberohs connective tissue masses located throughout the body |
| goblet cell | a column-shaped cell found in the respiratory and intestinal tracts, which secretes the main component of mucus. |
| vascular | has blood supply |
