4 types of tissue
|
epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous
|
|
epithelial
|
covering, lining, packed tightly, no blood vessels
|
|
epithelial tissue classified by what 3 shapes?
|
squamus(flat, scale like), cubodial (cube shape), columnar( colum)
|
|
simple squamus
|
alveoli of lung (functional unit)
|
|
epithelial tissue classified by arrangement
|
simple(one layer)
stratified(many layers of cell smae shape) trasitional(several layers of cells different shapes) |
|
stratified squamus
|
skin
|
|
simple colmnar
|
lining of stomach, intestines (contains Goblet cells which produce mucus)
|
|
transitional
|
several layers, subject to stretching like the bladder
|
|
psuedostratified
|
trachea
|
|
Glandular
|
cubodial, specialized for the glands
|
|
exocrie gland
|
flows into a specific place (salvary gland)
|
|
endocrine gland
|
flows into the blood stream (throid gland)
|
|
Matrix
|
gives each type of connective tissue its unique properities
|
|
areolar
|
the most abundant connective tissue. It is what gives the organs its shape
|
|
adipose
|
FAT, storage within each cell and can't be gained or lost after 3-5 years of life
|
|
fibrous connective tissue
|
very strong protein fibers. Makes up the tendons and ligaments
|
|
epithelial tissue is classified by ?
|
3 shape and 3 arrangement
|
|
bone
|
highly specialized, provides support and protection for the body. Storage for minerals
|
|
cartilage? 3 types?
|
strong, flexible.
1)fibro cartilage- the hardest= intervertebral discs 2)Hyline Cartilage- flexible, highly compressible= joints, nose 3)elastic cartilage- soft and supple=pinna of the ear |
|
blood
|
the most unusual. does contain solid components like rbc's, wbc's, and platelets
|
|
Hemopoietic
|
(blood producing)connective tissue is responsible for the formation of red and white blood cells. Like=spleen, red bone marrow
|
|
muscle tissue. 3 types
|
1)skeletal- the most abundant- voluntary- biceps brachii
2)Cardiac- heart muscle 3)smooth- (visceral) walls of the blood vessels, gastrointestional and respirtory tract. |
|
peristalsis
|
the movement of food through the digestive tract.
|
|
nervous tissue
|
communication of the body structures and control of body functions
|
|
Neuron
|
nerve cell
|
|
neurogilla
|
holds neurons together, connective and supporting cells of the neurons system
|
