what are the four types of tisues

epithelial, muscle, connective, nervous

what type of tissue consists almost entirely of cells, covers body surfaces and forms glands, has a basement membrane, and undergoes mitosis

epithelial tissue

what type of tissue protects underlying structures, permits the passage and secretes substances, and absorbs substances?

epithelial tissue

one layer of cells that extends from basement membrane to free surface

simple

more than one layer of cells

stratified

tissue that appears to be stratified but all cells contact basement membrane so it is in fact simple

pseudostratified

flat scale like cells

squamous

about equal in height and weight

cubiodal

taller than wide

columnar

cells shape that allows diffusion of gases, filtration of blood, secretion, absoption

simple

protection, particularly against abrasion

stratified

cells that allow diffusion/ act as a filter

squamous

cells that secretion or absorption

cuboidal and columnar

glands that have no open contact with exterior; no ducts; produce hormones unto bloodstream

endocrine

glands that have open contact maintained with exterior; ducts

exocrine

ducts with few branches

simple

ducts with many branches

compound

produce and secrete mucus

goblet cells

tissue classification is based on

structure, function, and composition of extracellular matrix

inner layer that forms lining of digestive tract

endoderm

middle layer that forms tissue such as bone, muscle, blood vessels

mesoderm

outer layer that forms cells

ectoderm

tissue that is found in every organ, has many diverse types, and its cells are sepperated by large amounts of extracellular matrix

connective

nonliving chemical substance

extracellular matrix

functions are to enclose organs as a capsule and sepperate organs into layers; support and movement; storage; cushion and insulate; transport; protect; connect tissues to one another

connective

connect muscles to bone

tendons

connect bones to bones

ligaments

make the extracellular matrixq

blasts

cell maintains the matrix

cytes

breaks down the matrix for remodeling

clasts

respond to injury or infectioin

white blood cells

insulates and is an energy source

adipose

most common protein in the body: strong, flexible, not flexible

collagen

fills spaces between organs and tissues

reticular

contain molecules of protein that resemble coiled springs

elastin

loose connective tissue between skin and muscle; cushions joints

adipose

no blood flow

avascular

avascular and no nerve supply; firm, tough, slightly compressive

cartliage

rich blood supply

vascular

vascular; matrix gives strength and rigidity; hard connective tissue composed of living cells and mineralized matrix

bone

bone contains what kind of fiber

collagen

the 3 parts that are in blood plasma are

red cells, white cells, platelets

blood matrixq

plasma

what type of tissue is found in bone marrow and forms blood cells?

hemopoietic cells

red marrow produces

red and white blood cells

white marrow produces

adipose

tissue that contracts or shortens with force; moves entire body and pumps blood

muscle

muscle tissue that is attached to the skeleton; it is striated and voluntary

skeltal

muscle of the heart; striated and involuntary

cardiac

muscle associated with tubular structures and the skin; nonstriated and involuntary

smooth

neurons

nerve cells

3 parts of a neuron

cell body, axon, dendrites;

part of neuron that contains the nucleus

cell body

part of neuron that conducts impulses away from cell body; usually only one

axon

part of neuron that receives impulses from other neurons; may be multiple of them

dendrites

what lines cavities that opens to the outside of the body, is found in respiratory digestive urinary reproductive system, and produces mucus

mucous

line cavaties/ internal organs

serous

line freely moving joints

synovial

inflammation is a response to

tissue damage or an immune response

symptoms of inflammation

redness, heat, swelling, pain, disturbance of function

when the edges of a wound are close together

primary union

primary union steps

wound fills with blood
clot forms
scab
inflammatory response (pus forms)
granulation tissue replaces clot
scar

what are some of the things that happen to your tissue when you age

rate of cell synthesis declines; tendons and ligaments become more fragile and less elastic; wrinkling of the skin; increased tendency for bones to break; injuries heal slower
