Name 4 types of Tissue
|
1. Epithelial
2. Connective 3. Muscle 4. Nerve |
|
|
This tissue includes the Brain, spinal cord, and nerves. This is internal communication
|
Nervous tissue
|
|
|
These tissue contract to cause movement. This tissue is where muscles attach to bones (skeletal), muscles of heart, and muscles of walls of hollow organs.
|
Muscle Tissue
|
|
|
This tissue forms the boundary between different environments, protects, secretes, absorbs, and filters. The skin surface and lining of GI tract are examples of this.
|
Epithelial Tissue
|
|
|
This tissue supports, protects, and binds other tissues together such as bones, tendons, and fat.
|
Connective Tissue
|
|
|
What is the most abundant and widely distributed tissue type?
|
Connective Tissue
|
|
|
What are the four classes of Connective Tissues?
|
1. Connective Tissue Proper
2. Cartilage 3. Bone Tissue 4. Blood |
|
|
What are the Connective Tissue Proper subclasses?
|
Loose Connective Tissue (areolar, adipose, reticular)
Dense Connective Tissue (regular, irregular, elastic) |
|
|
What are the Cartilage Tissue subclasses?
|
Hyaline cart, Elastic cart, Fibrocart
|
|
|
What are the Bone Tissue subclasses?
|
Compact and Spongy
|
|
|
What are the Blood Tissue subclasses?
|
WHOA! too complex..see chap 17 boyo.
|
|
|
What are the four major functions of connective tissue?
|
Binding and Support
Protection insulation Transportation (blood) |
|
|
What are the 3 types of fibers in Connective Tissue?
|
Collagen (strength, most abundant)
Elastic (stretch) Reticular (short/fine) |
|
|
This type of tissue is avascular, and surrounded by the perichondrium
|
Cartilage
|
|
|
The most abundant type of cartilage, this provides support, flexibility, resilience. Present in: articular, costal, respiratory, nasal
|
Hyaline Cartilage
|
|
|
What is similar to Hyaline cartilage, but contains elastic fibers(found in ear)
|
Elastic Cartilage
|
|
|
What cartilage is highly compressed with great tensile strength and contains collagen fibers? (found in minisci of knee/invert discs)
|
Fibrocartilage
|
|
|
What is blood cell formation in marrow cavities called?
|
Hematopoiesis
|
|
|
What is fat storage is bone cavities called?
|
Triglycerides
|
|
|
Cube shaped bones(wrist and ankle) and sesamoid bones comprise this bone type
|
short bones
|
|
|
These bones are LONGER than they are wide
|
Long bones
|
|
|
Tendons, ie patella make up these bones
|
Sesamoid Bones
|
|
|
Wrist and ankle bones are these
|
Cube-shaped bones
|
|
|
Thin, flat, slightly curved bone
|
Flat bone
|
|
|
Complicated shaped bones
|
Irregular Bones
|
|
|
The humerus is an example of what type of bone
|
Long Bone
|
|
|
The vertebra is an example of what type of bone?
|
Irregular bone
|
|
|
The talus is an example of what type of bone?
|
Short Bone
|
|
|
What looks like a honeycomb of trabeculae?
|
Spongy (cancellous) bone
|
|
|
What bone has a dense outer layer?
|
Compact Bone
|
|
|
the end of a long bone; initially separated from the main bone by a layer of cartilage that eventually ossifies so the parts become fused
|
Epiphysis (proximal and distal)
|
|
|
These fibers are a matrix of connective tissue consisting of bundles of strong collagenous fibres connecting periosteum to bone.
|
Sharpey's Fibers
|
|
|
What is a thin layer of connective tissue which lines the surface of the bony tissue that forms the medullary cavity of long bones?
|
Endosteum
|
|
|
Where does Hematopoietic tissue occur in adults?
|
trabecular cavities of the heads of the femur/humerus, and diploe of flat bones.
|
|
|
Where does Hematopoietic tissue occur in newborns?
|
medullary cavities and all spaces in spongy bone
|
|
|
Osteogenic (stem cells) in peri and endosteum give rise to what?
|
Osteoblasts (bone forming cells)
|
|
|
What are mature bone cells?
|
Osteocyte
|
|
|
What are cells that break down (resorb) bone matrixes called?
|
Osteoclasts
|
|
|
What is responsible for hardness and resistance to compression in bones?
|
Hydroxyapatites
|
