Tight Junctions

leak proof seal between cells.They keep materials from leaking out of organs like the stomach and bladder.
Desmosomes
“spot welds” They also use cadherin  glycoprotein (plus intermediate filaments) to hook into cytoplasm. Found in skin cells and heart.
Hemidesmosomes
half-welds that join cells to the basement membrane. These are found connecting epithelial tissue to the basement membrane.
Gap Junctions
are pores (connexons) that allow small substances to pass between cells. Sick or dead cells seal to prevent damage to other cells. Found in places like the heart, GI tract and uterus.
Epithelial Tissue
-Cells are arranged in sheets

-Cells are densely packed


-Many cell junctions are present


-cells attach to a basement membrane


-avascular but does have a nerve supply


-Mitosis occurs frequently

Pathologist
a physician who examines cells and tissues for any changes that might indicate disease
Glandular epithelium
the secreting portions of glands such as the thyroid, adrenal, and sweat glands
Apical
surface that is not attached to another tissue (apical surface).  This surface is lining a body surface or a tube. 

Top layer of Epithelial?



Endocrine Glands
Secrete hormones. Their secretions enter interstitial fluid and then diffuse directly into the bloodstream.
Mucous membranes
Open to the outside; digestive, respiratory, and reproductive tracts. Germicidal, it lubricates, and produces digestive enzymes


Cutaneous

Deep Layer of Skin
Synovial
Fluid that lubricates and nourishes cartilage
Skeletal Muscle
attached to bones
     - primary functions: voluntary motion, posture, heat, protection 
Cardiac Muscle
Smooth Muscle
Simple Squamous
Cardiovascular and lymphatic systems, also the peritoneum, pleura and pericardium.

Filtration and Secretion 

Cardiovascular and lymphatic systems, also the peritoneum, pleura and pericardium.

Secretion and Absoption

Pseudostratified Columnar
respiratory tract (nasal cavity to bronchi) Epididymis, male urethra

Absoption and protection, ciliated secrete and move
respiratory tract (nasal cavity to bronchi) Epididymis, male urethra



Absoption and protection, ciliated secrete and move

Stratified Squamous
Keratinized forms superficial layer of skin; Wet surfaces - vagina, tongue, esophagus, anal canal
Protection against abrasion, water loss, invasion.
