neural, muscle, connective, and epithelial
|
|
Name the 5 characteristics of epithelial tissue?
|
CPAAR
cellularity, polarity, attachemnt, avascularity, regeneration |
|
Cellularity?
|
cell closely bound by cell junctions
|
|
Polarity?
|
uneven distribution of cytoplasm and organelles.
difference in struture and function of apical and basal surface |
|
Attachment?
|
bound to basal lamina
|
|
Avascularity?
|
obtain nutrients by diffusion
|
|
Regeneration?
|
high rate of cell division and replacement
|
|
Give the 4 functions of epithelial?
|
control permeability, protection, provide sensation, produce secretions
|
|
List major epithelial cell specializations and their locations?
|
Generally polar
movement of fluids over a surface for lubrication and protection, movement of fluids through epithelium to control permeability, produce secretions for protection or as a messenger. |
|
Microvilli?
|
Increase surface area, sign of site of absorbtion and secretion.
|
|
Cilia?
|
use a beating motion to move substances ex mucus.
|
|
Name 3 factors that give epithlial its strength or integrity?
|
intercellular conncetions,attachment to basal lamina, maintanence and repair (regeneration)
|
|
Name the 3 cell junctions?
|
tight, gap, and desmosome( divided into button and hemi)
|
|
Tight?
|
Uses a continuous adhesion belt to bind by interlockin membrane protiens to lipid portion of nighbors. prevent passage of water and solutes like digestive track
|
|
Gap?
|
intercellular communication by channel proteins connexons which allow movement of small molecules and ions,ex cells w/ cilia or cardiac & smooth muscle
|
|
Mechanical stresses?
|
bending, stretching, twisting, or compression
|
|
Desmosomes?
|
PROTEOGLYCANS(INTERCELLULAR CEMENT)AND CAMs LINK OPPOSING CELL MEMBRANES at the desne area which is connected to the cytoskeleton TO CREATE A STRONG DURABLE CONNECTION
|
|
Button desmosomes?
|
Small disks of intermediat fibers that act as cross braces
|
|
Hemidesmosome?
|
Half buttons that bind to extracellular filaments and anchor cell position to underlying connective tissue
|
|
Basal lamina?
|
or basement membrane made of 2 layers
|
|
lamina lucida?
|
thin clear layer that contains glycoproteins and acts as barrier to large molecules and protein
|
|
Lamina densa?
|
deeper layer, gives it its strength fibers attach the two layers and hemidesmosomes attach cell to basal lamina. densa also acts as a filter that determins what substances can diffuse b/t tissues
|
|
simple epithelia?
|
1 layer thick, frigile, found in internal compartments and pasageways including ventral body cavities heart chambers and blood vessels, good for secretion and absorbtion
|
|
Stratified?
|
more than 1 layer thick provide protection from mechanicle or chemical stresses found in the skin and lining of the mouth
|
|
Squamous?
|
thin flat jigsaw like,
|
|
Cuboidal?
|
tiny boxes or hexagons nucleus in the middle
|
|
Columnar?
|
tall and slender
|
|
Mesothelium?
|
simple squamous that line chambers or passageways that do not communicate w/ the outside world ex superficial layer of pleura, peritoneum and pericardium
|
|
Endothelium?
|
simple squamous epithelial lining inner surface of heart and blood vessels
endo inside |
|
germinative cells
|
stem cells located near the basal lamina
|
|
Simple squamous?
|
line ventral body cavities inside(endo) and out(meso),secretion absorbtion, slick slippery surface reduces friction, controls vessle permeability
|
|
Stratified squamous?
|
layers proved protection against abrasions (mechanical), patogen or chemical attack some cells are keritinized
|
|
Keratin?
|
protein that is water resistant and tough can protect against dehydration
|
|
Simple cuboidal?
|
limited protection, secretion and absorbtion found in gland, ducts,lines kidney tubules thyroid gland
|
|
Stratified cuboidal?
|
rare line some ducts protection secretion absorbtion found in sweat and mammary glands
|
|
Simple columnar?
|
protection secretion absorption found in stomach small and large intestine
|
|
Stratified columnar?
|
protection, found in
|
|
Endocrine?
|
release hormones directly into interstitiual fluid to regulate tissues, organs and organs systems
|
|
exocrine?
|
glands w/ ducts
|
|
give 3 modes of secretion?
|
meracrine, apocrine, holocrine
|
|
meracrine?
