4 Basic Tissue Types

Epithelium, Connective, Muscular, Nervous

Where can you find Epithelium

Covering and lining, and glands



It is the interface between 2 different environments


-skin: air


-gut tube: gut lumen


-trachea:air

Where can you find Connective tissue

Bone, cartilage

Classification criteria for epithelium

Number of cells in the layer- simple(one) stratified(more then one)



Shape of the cells- squamous, cuboidal, columnar

Specific functions of Epithelium tissue

Protection, secretion and absorption, excretion, sensory reception

Simple squamous

Simple cuboidal

Simple columnar and simple ciliated columnar

Psuedostratified columnar and psuedostratified ciliated columnar

Stratified squamous

Stratified columnar

Transitional

Apical Specializations

Microvilli (do not move)


Cillia (move back and forth)

Juctions

Junctional complexes -hold cells together all the way around the cell


Gap junctions-exist between two cells. They are like a tunnel between them that allow things to travel from one cell to the next

Basement membrane

Basal lamina. Exist below the cells. It is what the cells attach to

Exocrine glands

Secrete enzymes into ducts that lead to target tissue


Unicellular


Ex: goblet cells



Endocrine

Secretes products such as hormones directly into the blood

Common characteristics of connective tissue

Extensive intercellular matrix


Derived from mesenchyme( embryonic tissue)

Locations of connective tissues

-virtually all other tissues are embedded in it


-underlies all epithelium


-surrounds all muscles


-lies within muscles


-connects individual muscle fibers together


-surrounds all blood vessels


-surrounds all nerves that lie outside the CNS-surrounds and penetrates all glands



NS-surrounds and penetrates all glands


-surrounds and penetrates all glands

Functions of connective tissue

-support


-convey body fluids


-defense

Loose connective tissue proper structures used for support

-collagen fibers(keep from being pulled apart)


-reticular fibers(provide support for things traveling through connective tissue)


-elastic fibers(bend ex is ear)


-fibroblasts( produce other fibers)

Loose connective tissue proper structures used to convey body fluids

Ground substance (hold tissue fluid in place)

Loose connective tissue proper structures used for defense

-histiocytes (eat and destroy)


-plasma cells(antibodies)


-mast cells (heparin and histamine)


Eosinophils and neutrophils)

Irregular Dense connective tissue proper

Regular dense connective tissue proper

Fatty connective tissue proper

Adipose tissue

Cartilage characteristics

-firm intercellular matrix


-chondrocytes (need oxygen and nutrients that are transported by diffusion through the capillaries that come up to the perichon)


-lacunae


-perichondrium( encloses cartilage)


-avascular


-no nerves

Types of cartilage

-hyaline cartilage


-elastic cartilage


-fibrocartilage

Hyaline cartilage

We have a lot more of it when we are younger


The entire fetal skeleton vs. adult trachea,medial ends of ribs, and larynx(voice box)

Elastic cartilage

The ear can bend and stretch and returns back

Fibrocartilage

More collagen


Found in the vertebrae to act as shock absorbers, in articulation between left and right pubic bone

Bone

Matrix


-65% inorganic crystals


-35% organic crystals


Gross structure


-compact bone(make up outer wall)


-spongy bone(inside of bone)


-articular cartilage


-medullary cavity


-periostium(around the bone falls off when dry)


-endostium

Microscopic structures of bones

-osteocytes


-lacunae


-canaliculi


-osteoblasts


-osteoclasts

Bone development

Intramembranous(simple)


-membrane bone(mesenchyme, woven bone,lamellar)


Endochondral ossification(complex)


-endochondral bone

Bone growth

-zone of cartilage deposit


-zone of calcification


-zone of erosion

Vascular tissue

Plasma


Formed elements


-erythrocytes


-leucocytes


-thrombocytes(platelets)

Embryonic development

Differentiation

Body tube

-skin


-coelom


-serous membrane


-body wall

Gut tube

Serous membrane. Runs down middle of body

Dorsal body wall midline


-vertebrae


-nerve cord

Embryonic period

By 8 weeks outlines a person but nothing is functioning

Fetal period

Baby grows and develops systems closer to function

Dorsal body wall lateral

Kidneys


Retroperitoneal

Adult body plan limbs

Skin


Muscle


Bones

Early events in embryonic development

Ovulation


Fertilization


Cleavage


Implantation

Ovulation

Ovum

Fertilization

Sperm


-head(dna)


-tail(flagellum)


Zygote


-2 cell


-4 cell


-8 cell


-16 cell

Late cleavage

Morula(solid ball or cells)


Blastocyst(hallow ball of cells)


-trophoblast


-blastocoel (the space in the middle)


-inner cell mass (ICM)

Implantation

What is the integument system made of

Epidermis


-ectoderm


Dermis


-mesoderm


Hypodermis

Integument functions

Protection


Temperature regulation


Vitamin D production


Protection from UV


Excretion


Sensory reception

Layers of the epidermis

5 layers. Oldest on top youngest on bottom. All are produced by the bottom layer


-stratum corneum( constantly shedding these cells)


-stratum lucidum


-stratum grandulosum( layer where cells die)


-stratum spinosum


-stratum basale

Fibrous joint

No movement, joints are locked together


Ex: suture

Cartilaginous joint

Held together with cartilage


Ex: synchondrosis(hyaline cartilage in ribs) symphysis (fibrocartilage intervertebral disks)

Transverse tubules (t- tubules) are in a 1/2 ratio with the lateral sacs


Triad



No energy is used to start muscle contraction


An electrical impulse is sent, travels along t-tubules, which changes permiability for calcium and contraction happens



Energy is needed to stop contraction since you are moving backwards along the concentration gradient
