What are the parts of the axial skeleton?
|
1. skull
2. vertebral column 3. ribs 4. sternum |
|
|
What are the parts of appendicular skeleton?
|
1. pectoral and pelvic girdles: anterior and posterior appendages
|
|
|
Histology
|
the study of tissue
|
|
|
What are the 4 types of tissues?
|
1. epithelial
2. connective 3. muscle 4. nerve |
|
|
Epithelial tissue
|
-most common
-skin, hollow organs - bound tightly together, having very little extracellular material between them |
|
|
How do connective tissues function?
|
- to bind and support other tissues
|
|
|
What type of epithelium tissue lines the body?
|
simple squamous epithelium
|
|
|
What are the two parts of connective tissue?
|
matrix and ground tissue
|
|
|
What are 2 types of neurons
|
sensory - cell body is in the middle
motor |
|
|
What are the parts of the nervous system?
|
the brain and spinal cord
|
|
|
What is the scientific name for the lab rat?
|
Rattus norvegicus (underline it!!)
|
|
|
What does the cervical column consist of?
|
atlas and axis
|
|
|
What does the thoracic cavity consist of?
|
it is from the neck to the ribcage
|
|
|
What does the lumbar cavity consist of?
|
from the ribcage to the hip (rat has a tail)
|
|
|
simple squamous epithelium
|
-made up of a single layer of squamous shaped cells
-found lining the body cavity, lungs, and blood vessels |
|
|
simple cuboidal epithelium
|
-made up of a single layer of cuboidal shaped cells
-the kidney tubules and many glads throughout the body are lined with this |
|
|
Simple columnar epithelium
|
-made up of a single layer of columnar shaped cells
-most commonly found lining the digestive tract -in many cases, the surfaces of the columnar cells are modified by presence of microvilli or cilia |
|
|
stratified squamous epithelium
|
-made up of numerous cell layers with the outermost layers consisting of squamous cells; the inner cells may be cuboidal or columnar in shape
-found lining the mouth and esophagus and the external surface of the body (skin) |
|
|
stratified columnar epithelium
|
- found in only a few limited areas of the body
- pharynx, conjunctiva, and urethra - the cells in the outermost layer are columnar, the cells of the inner layers are more cubiodal or irregular in shape |
|
|
pseudostratified columnar epithelium
|
- columnar epithelium which apperas stratified but is really made up of only one layer of cells- results bc nuclei of the columnar cells are located at different levels within the cells bc cells are different heights
- in respiratory tract |
|
|
transitional epithelium
|
-found exclusively lining the urinary system
- consists of several layers of cuboidal or irregular shaped cells, and is capable of changing its shape as regions of the urnary system become distended |
|
|
How are epithelial tissues arranged?
|
In sheets which serve to cover the internal and external surfaces of the body
|
|
|
How are epithelial tissues classified?
|
according to the shape of the cells which make up the epithelium, and the number of cell layers present
|
|
|
How are connective tissues classified?
|
extracellular material, called the matrix, composed of fibers in a homogenous ground substance that may be liquid, jelly-like, or solid.
|
|
|
How are connective tissues identified?
|
-cell type
- the type of matrix material present |
|
|
Connective tissue proper
|
-connective tissue whose matrix contains fibers in various amounts of ground substance
|
|
|
Two types of c.t. proper and describe each
|
-"loose" (areola) tissued contains a few fibers in a delicate arrangement
- fibrous connective tissue is tough - tendons contain abundant well-organized fibers |
|
|
adipose tissue
|
- a special form of loose c.t. in which cells store FAT in large droplets
|
|
|
blood
|
c.t. w/ a liquid matrix.
- main connective tissue |
|
|
cartilage
|
-matrix w/rubbery consistency
-cells- chondrocytes - pliable and supports structures such as the ear and nose |
|
|
bone
|
-the hardest c.t.
- impregnated w. ca salt - bone cells (osteocytes) are housed in small cavities of the matrix known as lacunae - along w/blood, a main c.t. |
|
|
2 forms of blood
|
spongy
compact |
|
|
5 types of connective tissue
|
1. c.t. proper
2. adipose tissue 3. blood 4. cartilage 5. bone |
|
|
3 types of muscle tissue
|
1. skeletal
2. smooth 3. cardiac aka stratified |
|
|
intercalated disks
|
found in cardiac muscle
