-in ruminants stratified squamous epithelium lines the fore stomach (rumen, reticulum, and omasum)
-Thickest and toughest, consisting of many layers of cells
Stratified Columnar Epithelium
-Composed of more than one layer of columnar cells and is found lining parts of the pharynx and salivary ducts
Transitional epithelium
-Forms the lining of portions of the urinary system that are subjected to stretching
-Ability to pile up many cells when bladder is relaxed
-Stretch out a single layer when bladder is full
Connective tissue
-connect other tissues
-Give form and strength to many organs
-Serve for protection and leverage
-Most abundant tissue
-Bind
-provide support
-store fat
-have a matrix - has fibers and a ground substance
-cells do reproduce
-Vascularity varies
Connective tissue includes:
-yellow elastic tissue
-Collagenous
-reticular
-adipose
-cartilage
-bone
Connective tissue fibers
-Collagenous fibers
-Elastic fibers
Collagenous fibers
-made of protein collagen
-Flexible, but have great tensile strength
-if abundand collagen fibers (dense connective)
Elastic fibers
-microfibrils embeded in elastin
-easily stretched or deformed
-Vocal cords and air tissue
Dense connective tissues
-Very strong
-Helps bind body parts together (tendons)
-Poor blood supply
Dense irregular connective tissue
-Thick mat with fibers running in all directions
-Dermis of skin
-Forms strong covering that resists tearing
-Flexible
Areolar Connective Tissue
-Found throughout body where protective cushioning and flexibility are needed (organs and tissue)
-Beneath the dermis
-layer of loosely arranged connective tissue fibers which attach the skin to muscle
-Permits the formation of a thick layer of fat between the skin and muscle
-If Areolar Connective Tissue is not present skin will adhere to bone and fat will not form
Adipose tissue
-Fat
-Accumulates fat overtime
-Tissue is found in various sites
-helps cushion joints and some organs
-a person is born with certain number of fat cells (adipocytes)
-Fat cells store triglycerides
Cartilage
-Provides structural support
-matrix is abundant
-ground substance is rich in protein-polysaccaride complexes
-perichindrium-outer covering with blood supply
-Hyaline, elastic, and fibrocartilage
-Firmer than fibrous tissue
Hyaline Cartilage
-Glass-like covering of bones within joints
-Forms smooth surface that reduces friction
-Trachea
-Actively growing areas near the end of long bones
Elastic Cartilage
-Mixture of cartilage substances and elastic fibers
-Forms external ear, larynx
-flexible
Fribro Cartilage
-Mixture of cartilage and collagenous fibers
-Forms semi-elastic cushion of great strength
-intervertebral discs found between the bodies of adjacent vertebrae
Bone
-Most rigid connective tissue
-Calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate
-Provides support and protection
-Osteocytes and lamella
-Osteonal
-Canaliculi (small canals)
-Cancellous and compact
Blood
-Cells are suspended in fluid (plasma)
-Red and white blood cells and platelets
-most blood cells formed in red marrow of hollow bones
-Only red blood cells function entirely in vessels
Plasma
-Fluid portion of unclotted blood
Serum
-Yellow fluid that is expressed out when blood in allowed to clot and retracts
-Contains Antibody fractions of blood
Red Blood Cells
-Erythrocytes
-Contain hemoglobin
hemoglobin
-carries oxygen from lungs to tissues
-Carbon dioxide
White blood cells
-Leukocytes
-First line of defense of the body against infection
The proteins ______ and _______ make up 65% of the protein in the myofibril

True Growth
An increase in the structural tissue: bone, muscle, and the connective tissue associated with muscle
4 types of fat
1. Internal
2. Subcutaneous

4. Intermuscular
Growth
An increase in hight, length, girth, and weight that occurs when a healthy young animal is given adequate food, water, and shelter
Live weight
Live weight is the most important and most commonly measured of these parameters and, if recorded at regular intervals, yeilds a simple gowth curve
Development
