2 subtypes of Epithelium
|
1) Covering and Lining
(Protection, absorption, secretion) 2)Glandular |
|
3 Classifications of Epithelium
|
1) Epithelial (external body surfaces)
2) Endothelial (lines blood and lypmh) 3) Mesothelial (covers internal organs) |
|
Layers of Epithelium
|
simple, stratified, pseudostratified
|
|
Cell Shape
|
squamous
cuboidal columnar transitional |
|
Simple Squamous Epithelium
|
-single layer
-flat, scale like cells -adapted to diffusion, osmosis and filtration |
|
simple cuboidal epithelium
|
-lines ducts and is involved in active transport of materials
-secretion and absorption -kidney tubules |
|
simple columnar epithelium
|
-lines many tracts including respiratory and digestive tracts
-protect underlying tissues -can be modified to aid in food-related activities -Cilia: hair like processes |
|
stratified squamous epithelium
|
protection from wear and tear
basal cells multiply cells shift upward and outward superficial cells are flatter and older |
|
stratified cuboidal epithelium
|
rare type
primarily protective found in ducts of sweat glands, parynx, esophagus |
|
stratified columnar epithelium
|
uncommon
protection and secretion lines ducts of excretory organs apears more like transitional |
|
transitional epithelium
|
outer cell layer is large and rounded rather than flat
allows for distension line hollow structures that expand such as the urinary bladder |
|
mesothelial tissue lines what 4 cavities?
|
Peritoneal (abdominal)
Pleural (2 lungs) Pericardial (heart) |
|
Loose Connective Tissues
|
Areolar:
doesn't seem organized found just beneath the skin Adipose high concentration of fat cells looks like chickenwire, matrix Reticular |
|
Fibers
|
Collagen- WHITE
strong and stretch resistant, yet flexible Elastic fibers- YELLOW strong yet elastic, stretching up to 150% of relaxed length Reticular fibers collagen + glycoprotein. thin fibers. form networks with extensive branching. provide strength, support and form to many soft organs |
|
2 types of Dense connective tissues
|
Regularly arranged
Irregularly arranged |
|
Regularly arranged
Dense CT |
adapted for tension in one direction
fibers have an orderly parallel appearance most frequently composed of collagen |
|
Irregularly arranged
Dense CT |
Adapted for tensions occuring in varied directions
no consistent orientation of fiber bundles |
|
Types of Dense CT
|
tendons
ligaments fascia reticular aponeuroses |
|
tendons
|
tough, non-elastic (collagen), cords that connect
MUSCLE TO BONE MUSCLE to CARTILAGE |
|
Ligaments
|
An elastic band of tissue (elastin) that connects
BONE TO BONE BONE to CARTILAGE CARTILAGE TO CARTILAGE don't grow back if torn or damaged |
|
Fascia
|
membranous sheets that organize muscle fibers into functional units
casing, "saran wrap" (white collagen) |
|
Reticular
|
a delicate matrix or cells which have processes that extend in all directions to join the processes of neighboring cells
flat matrix like appearance |
|
Aponeurosis
|
A tendinous sheet that covers muscle and can connect muscles to the structures they more
(abdomen) Ex: Plantar aponeurosis |
|
Cartilage
|
A type of rigid CT
capable of growth able to withstand large forces of compression yet may tear easily |
|
Three types of cartilage
|
1)Hyaline
2)Fibrous 3)Elastic |
|
Chondro=
Osteo= |
Condro= cartilage
osteo= bone Ex: condrocyte, osteocyte |
|
Hyaline cartilage
|
Most rigid
Covers articular surfaces of joints, providing a smooth surface for movement bluish |
|
Fibrous Cartilage
|
Mostly Collagen
support and fusion found in less movable joints pinkish |
|
Elastic cartilage
|
A lot of elastin (yellow)
Suport and shape black |
|
Bone
|
a rigid matrix
composed of bone cells, collagen fibers, and ground substance collagen makes bond strong inorganic mineral salts make bone hard |
|
2 types of Bone
|
1)Dense/compact
2) spongy/cancellous The two types interdigitate with each other along the length of the bone |
|
Axial Skeleton
Appendicular skeleton |
Axial-skull, thorax
Appendicular-everything else |
|
3 Joint Classificaitons
|
1) Fibrous (synarthrosis)
2) Cartilaginous (amphiarthrosis) 3) Synovial (diarthrosis) |
|
4 types of Fibrous (Synarthroidial) Joints
|
Immovable, joined by CT
1. Suture joints 2. Gomphoses (mandible & maxilla) 3. Syndesmoses 4. Schindylesis |
|
2 types Cartilagenous (amphiarthroidial) Joints
|
1. Synchondroses
temporary hyaline 2. Symphyses Permanent fibrocartilage discs Slightly moveable bones are connected by cartilage discs movement occurs by the compression of discs |
|
6 Synovial (diarthroidial) Joints
|
Freely moving joints
1. Ball and Socket (hip) 2. Hinge (elbow) 3. Pivot (1st and second vertebrae) 4. Condyloid or ellipsoid (wrist, jaw) 5. gliding or plane-(vertebrae and hands and feet) 6. saddle (thumb) |
|
3 types of Muscle architecture
|
1) Parallel
2) Radiating 3) Pennate |
|
Parallel Muscle architecture
|
muscle fibers run parallel to the long axis of the muscle
weakest- greatest range of motion |
|
Radiating Muscle architecture
|
Fan shaped with bundles of muscle fibers diverging or converging as they approach their attachments
greatest power Ex: hand |
|
Pennate muscle architecture
|
groups of muscle fibers converge onto a tendon, If multiple sections called bipennate, multipennate, or circumpennate
limited range of motion but BIG power has parallel muscle orientation |
|
Muscle nomenclature
|
ORIGIN=attachment that is FIXED
INSERTION= the attachment that is being acted upon |
|
Class I lever
|
Fulcrum is in the middle
Mechanical advantage- when force arm is longer that resistance arm Mechanical disadvantage- when force are is shorter than the resistance arm Ex: Elbow is mechanical disadvantage Ex: pushing on a door closer to a hinge or further away from the hinge |
|
Class II lever
|
Always a mechanical ADVANTAGE
like a wheelbarrow fulcrum at one end and resistance in the middle. Applied force at the other end Ex: calf muscle, jaw |
|
Class III lever
|
always a DISADVANTAGE
Ex: biceps muscle and elbow fulcrum at one end, applied force in the middle, load at the other end |
|
Dendrites are...
Axon is... |
Dendrite= afferent
axon= efferent |
