secrection and absorption. Secreted mucous serves as lubricant

Front 10

what is the specific function of ciliated simple columnar epithelium?

Back 10

cilia beat in unison, moving mucous and any foreign partilces toward the throat, where they can be coughed up and swallowed or spit out.

Front 11

What does pseudostratifed nonciliated epithelium not have that pseudo ciliated have?

Back 11

goblet cells

Front 12

where is pseudostratified epithilium located?

Back 12

lines the airways of most of the upperespitory tract; nonciliated lines larger ducts of glands, epididymis, urethra

Front 13

what is the function of stratified squamous epithelium?

Back 13

protection against abrasion, water loss, uv radiation, foreign invasion.

Front 14

Where is stratified squamous epithelium found?

Back 14

superficail layers of skin, nonkeratinized lines wet surfaces. Lining of mouth esophogus.

Front 15

what is the location of stratified cuboidal epithelium?

Back 15

glands and urethra

Front 16

what is the function of stratified cubodial epithelium?

Back 16

protection and limited secretion and absorption

Front 17

what is the location of stratified columnar epi?

Back 17

Lines urethra, ducts,

Front 18

what is the function of strat. coloumnar epi?

Back 18

protection and secretion

Front 19

where is transional epi found?

Back 19

lines urinary bladder, ureters and urethra.

Front 20

what is the function of transitional epi?

Back 20

allows orangs to stretch, and hold fluid and protects.

Front 21

what is the location of areoloar?

Back 21

SubQ, papillary region of dermis, around blood vessels, nerves and body organs

Front 22

what is the funciton of areolar?

Back 22

strenght, elasticity, support

Front 23

Where can you find adipose?

Back 23

anywhere aerolar is found, yellow bone marrow, SubQ

Front 24

What is adipose function?

Back 24

reduces heat loss, serves as energy reservoir, protects organs,

Front 25

where can you find reticular?

Back 25

stroma of the liver, spleen and lymph nodes, red bone marrow

Front 26

what is the function of reticular?

Back 26

forms stoma of organs, binds together smooth muscle tissue cells, filters and removes worn out blood cells.

Front 27

where can you find dense regular?

Back 27

Tendons (muscle to bone), ligaments (bone to bone) and aponeuroses

Front 28

what is the function of dense regular?

Back 28

provides strong attachment and withstands tension

Front 29

where can you find dense irregular?

Back 29

often occurs in sheets,fasciae (tissue beneath skin and around muscles and other organs), reticular (deeper) region of dermis skin, fibrous pericardium of heart, periosteum of bone, perichondrium of cartilage, joint capsules, membrane capsules around various organs. also found in heart valves.

Front 30

where can you find elastic connective tissue

Back 30

lung tissue, walls of arteries, trachea, bronchial tubes, true vocal cords, suspensory ligaments of penis, ligaments between vertabrae

Front 31

what is the function of elastic connective tissue

Back 31

allows stretching,

Front 32

where can you find hyaline cartilage?

Back 32

end of long bones, anterior end of ribs, nose, larynx, trachea, bronchi, embryonic and fetal skeleton

Front 33

what is the function of hyaline cartilage?

Back 33

provides smooth surfaces for movement at joints, as well as flexibility and support weakest of all 3 cartileges

Front 34

where can you find fibro cartilege?

Back 34

Pubic symphysis, invertabae discs, minisic (cartilege pads of knee, portion of tendons

Front 35

what is the function of fibro cartilege?

Back 35
