4 Types of Tissue
Epithelial
Connective- Holds tissue (60%)
Muscular - Skeletal,Cardiac
Neural - Makes up Brain & Spine
Epithelial Functions
Protection (Form Barriers)
Controls Permeability
Epithelial Characteristics
Cells have polarity
Cells sit on basement membrane
May have cilia & Microsvilli
CELLS CAN REGENERATE THROUGH MITOSIS
Simple Epithelial Tissue
Single layer of cells
Stratified Epithelial Tissue
Many Layers of cells - Resists wear and tear
Pseudostratified Epithelial Tissue
Looks like many Layers, but cells sit on basement membrane
Squamous Epithelial Tissue
Flat cells
Columnar Epithelial Tissue
column Shaped
Simple Squamous
List Function & Location
Function :Regulate exchange of materials

Locations: Line blood vessels, Line Heart, Alveoli
Simple Cuboidal
List Function & Location
Function: Absorption / Secretion

Locations: Ducts of kidneys
Simple Columnar

-> Pseudostratified Ciliated
List function & Location
Function: Move Material over surface

Locations: Line respiratory tract
Line uterine tubes
Simple Columnar

--> Non ciliated ( No cillia)
List function& Locations
Functions: Absorption/ Secretion
Locations: Line digestive tract ( May have microvilli)
Stratified Sqamous *MOST COMMON*

List function & Location
Functions: Protection/ Wear n tear
Location: Forms skin
lines vagina
mouth
Esophagus
Stratified Cuboidal

List function & Location
Functions: Secretion ( GLANDS)
Locations: Forms sweat, salivary & Mammary glands
Stratified Columnar

List function & Location
Functions: protection (RARE)
Location: Lines some large ducts (URETHRA)
Stratified Transitional
Functions: Flexibility (STRETCH)

Location: Lines bladder

* Changes shape when stretched cuboidal --- > Squamous
What are the two basic types of GLANDS?
Endocrine - Secrete hormones into blood

Exocrine- Secrete onto body surface or into body cavities
Exocrine Cells
--> Unicellular -- > ?
Goblet cell
What does Goblet cells do?
Secretes mucin

Mucin + water --> Mucus
Exocrine Cells
---> multicellular -->
consists of what 2 parts?
Secretory Unit
Duct
Classify Duct Structure
Simple( Unbranched)
Compound (Branched
Classify Secretory unit
Tubular ( Tube like)
Alveolar ( Sac like)
Mammary glands are what structural classification?
Compound Alveolar ( Branched/Sac like)
Intestinal glands are what structural Classification?
Simple Tubular ( Unbranched/Tube-like)
Functional Classification
Merocrine Glands
Most exocrine glands
ex Pancreas, salivary glands, Sweat glands
Functional Classification
Holocrine Glands
(Holocost)

Accumulates secretory products --> cell rupture --> Release Secretion

Ex. oil producing glands
Functional Classification
Apocrine Glands
Secretory product accumulates at tip (Apex) of cell --> tip breaks off

Ex.Mammary glands (Milk)
Connective Tissues

Matrix ->
What cells are embedded in

Matrix = Protien Fibres(ex elastin collagen)
+
Ground Substance (Ex proteins, mineral salts)
Cells that secret fibers are called what?
FIBROBLASTS
Functions of Connective tissue
Supports, surrounds, connects
Transports Fluid
Protects / Cushions
What are the three types of connective tissue
Connective tissue Proper (eg. Loose & Dense)

Fluid C.t ( eg. Blood or lymph)

Supporting C. t (eg. Bone or cartilage)
Connective tissue proper
Contains Fibers ( Made of protien)
Collagen ( Strong)
Elastin ( Strtechy - nose n ears)
Reticular (Forms networks of fibers)
Loose Connective tissue -
what are the three types
Areolar
Adipose
Reticular
Arrangement & Function Of
Areolar Tissue
Network of 3 fibers
Functions: Bind/ Hold/ Cushions
Arrangement & Functions of
Adipose Tissue
Around eyes *

Cells = Contain adipocytes
Functions: Cells storing fat droplets
Arrangement & Functions of
Reticular Tissue
Network of reticular fibers
Forms Spleen/ Lymph nodes/ Bone marrow

Functions: Stabilizes functional cells in these organs
Connective Tissue Proper
What are the three types of DENSE connective Tissue
Regular
Irregular
Elastic
Dense Connective Tissue
Regular
Forms what ? & Arrangement of fibres
Parallel Collagen fibers
Forms Ligaments, Tendons. Fascia
Dense Connective Tissue
Irregular
Forms what ? & Arrangement of fibers
Dense network of collagen fibers
Forms DERMIS of skin
Dense connective Tissue
Elastic
Forms what? & Arrangement of fibers
Thick parallel elastic fibers ( STRONG & STRETCHY )
Forms Vocal cords, aorta
Cartilage
Lots of collagen
Holds water forms a gel (50% water)
Cells - Chondrocytes (Sit in spaces called lucunea) PIC ON PAGE 2-8
Function of Cartilage?
Cushioning / Flexability
Types of Cartilage? x3
Hyaline-Supports/ cushions
Location: ends of long bones

Elastic- Most flexable cart.
Location Outer Ear, Epiglottis

Fibrocartilage- Parallel bundles of collagen- > resist compression
Location: Intervertebral discs, Knee joints-
