|
Locations of Irregular Dense connective tissue
|
Capsules of visceral organs; nerve and muscle sheaths; dermis.
|
|
Fuctions of Irregular Dense connective tissue.
|
Provides strength; helps prevent overexpansion of organs such as the urinary bladder
|
|
Locations of Regular Dense connective tissue-
|
Between skeletal muscles and skeleton; between bones.
|
|
Functions of Regular Dense connective tissue-
|
Provides firm attachment; reduces friction between muscles; stabilizes portions of bones.
|
|
Locations of Elastic Dense connective tissue
|
Found in the walls of arteries, between vertebrae, and in the ligaments supporting the penis.
|
|
Locations of Hyaline cartilage
|
Between tips of ribs and bones of sternum; covering bones at synovial joints. Also suppots larynx.
|
|
Functions of Hyaline Cartilage
|
Provides flexible support; reduces friction between bony surfaces.
|
|
Locations of Elastic Cartilage
|
Auricle of ear; epiglottis.
|
|
Functions of Elastic Cartilage
|
Provides support, but tolerates distoration without damage.
|
|
Locations of Fibrous Cartilage
|
Pads within knee joint; between puboc bones; intervertibral discs.
|
|
Functions of Fibrous Cartilage
|
Resists compression; prevents bone to bone contact.
|
|
Locations of Osseous tissue
|
Bone
|
|
Locations of smooth muscle
|
Walls of blodd vessels and in digestive, respiratory, urinary, and reproductive organs.
|
|
Functions of smooth muscle
|
Moves food, urine, and reporoductive tract secretions. Controls respiratory passageways; regulates blood vessels.
|
|
Locations of Simple Squamous epithelium
|
Lining of the heart, and blood vessels; kidney tubules, inner layer of cornea; lungs.
|
|
Functions of Simple Squamous Epithelium
|
Reduces friction; controls vessel permeability; performs absorption and secretion.
|
|
Locations of Stratified Squamous Epithelium
|
Surface of skin, lining of the mouth, throat, esophagus, anus, vagina.
|
|
Functions of Stratified Squamous Epithelium
|
Provides physical protection against abrasion, and pathogens.
|
|
Locations of Simple Columnar Epithelium
|
Lining of stomach, intestine, gallbladder, uterine tubes.
|
|
Functions of Simple Colomnar Epithelium
|
Protection, secretion, absorption.
|
|
Locations of Stratified Colomnar Epithelium
|
Areas of pharynx, epiglottis, anus, urethra.
|
|
Functions of Stratified Columnar Epithelium
|
Protection of skin and structure.
|
|
Locations of Simple Cubodial Epithelium
|
Glands; ducts; kidney tubules, thyroid gland.
|
|
Functions of Simple Cubodial Epithelium
|
Limited protection, secretion, and absorption.
|
|
Locations of Stratified Cuboidal Epithelium
|
Lining of some ducts.
|
|
Functions of Stratified Cubodial Epithelium
|
Protection, secretion, absorption.
|
|
Locations of Pseudostratified Ciliated Columnar Epithelium
|
Nose, trachea, bronchi.
|
|
Functions of the Pseudostratified Ciliated Columnar Epithelium
|
Protection, secretion.
|
|
Locations of Transitional Epithelium
|
Bladder, ureters.
|
|
Functions of Transitional Epithelium
|
Allows expansion and recoils after stretching.
|
|
Cutaneous membrane is found within
|
an unerlying layer of areolar and dense connective tissue. Also found in keratinized stratified squamous epithelium.
|
|
Epidermal layer- top:
|
Stratum corneum-multiple layers of flattened, dead interlocking keratinocytes. Dry, and water resistant.
|
|
Epidermal layer-2nd layer:
|
Stratum Lucidum-appears as a "glassy" layer in thick skin only.
|
|
Epidermal layer-3rd layer:
|
Stratum Granulusum-Keratin fibers develop cells and become thinner and flatter.
|
|
Epidermal layer-4th layer:
|
Stratum Spinosum- keratinocytes are bound together.
|
|
Epidermal layer-5th layer:
|
Stratum Germinativum-Innermost, basal layer.
|
|
Cutanous Membrane contains:
|
Epidermis; dermis.
|
|
Dermis contains:
|
Papillary layer-nourishes and supports epidermis.
Reticular layer-Restricts spread of pathogens penetrating through. |
|
Accessory structures contain:
|
Hair follicles; Exocrine glands; nails.
|
|
Exocrine glands contain:
|
Sebaceuos glands-secrete oil lipid that coats hair; sweat glands.
|
|
In sweat glands-
|
Apocrine sweat glands-axilla, groin, nipples.
Merocrine sweat glands-Widespread in thermoregulation. |
|
The packaging organelle of the cytoplasm is called:

|
|
Functional difference of Simple eplithelium, and stratified epithelium:
|
Simple-reduces friction, and performs absorption & secretion.
Stratified-provides physical protection agains pathogens. |
