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
