The generalize epithelial cell has 3 surfaces, what are they?
|
Apical surface (top layer), the Lateral surface (one on each side) and the basal surface (deepest tissue/bottom)
|
|
The basement membrane is located _____?
|
outside of the cell, it is the extra cellular portion of the epithelial tissue
|
|
The basement membrane has ____ layers of ____ and ____
|
two layers of collagen and fibrous protein
|
|
The basement layer is ___ and works as a ______
|
thin and works as an anchor
|
|
Epithelial tissue does what?
|
Lines surfaces, organs, cavities, ect...
|
|
The defintion of epithelial is ?
|
cells in continous sheets (single or multi) with 3 different surfaces
|
|
The main function of epithelial tissue is _____
|
lining
|
|
Epithelial tissue is ARRANGED always in ____ either with ____, _____, or _____
|
layers, 1. single epithelium (single layer) 2. Pseudostratified layer (single layer) and 3. Stratified layer (2 or more layers)
|
|
The simple epithelium layer is for ______
|
secretion and absorbtion, usually found in the skin
|
|
Pseudostratified layer of epithelial looks like multiple layers because of?
|
its nuclei positions, all over the place, NOT in a row
|
|
Stratified layer of the epithelial is what?
|
Two or more layers defined by the nuclei position and for wear and tear
|
|
What are the four types of cell shapes?
|
Squamous (tile), cubodial (cube), columnar (columns, tall) and transition (changing)
|
|
Where is squamous shapes found?
|
found where rapid passage substances are
|
|
Transitional shapes go from ____ to ____ to allow ____, where is it found?
|
flat to cubodial to allow stretching, urinary system for the bladder to stretch up to 800 mL of fluid
|
|
Explain simple squamous
|
flat cells in a single layer, found where filtration (kidneys) and diffusion (lungs) occur, also lines cavities (endothelium) and has serous membranes
|
|
Explain simple cubodial
|
single cubes for secretion and absorbtion (i.e. thyroids have cubodial shell with more cytoplasm and a golgi to transfer)
|
|
Simple columnar is?
|
can be nonciliated (secretion). Or can be ciliated (absorbtion) with goblet cells to secrete mucus where protection is needed
|
|
Describe goblet cells?
|
Look like a glass of wine, they secret mucus to cover the membrane for protection
|
|
Pseudostratified columnar are ____ which is rare or _____ which is common and found in the ______
|
non ciliated is rare, ciliated is common and found in the intestinal tract
|
|
Stratified squamous has ____ layers and contain ____ with layers?
|
2 or more layers, squamous cells (flat on top of eachother) with an apical layer (flat, top layer) and deep layer (vary shapes)
|
|
Squamous layers always grow how and why?
|
from bottom to top becoming dehydrated to protect the organs
|
|
The top/apical layer of stratified contains how much water?
|
None
|
|
Where is the glandular epithelium and what does it do?
|
deep to the covering for 1. endorine (into the body) and exocrine (into ducts to empty to the surface; sweat)
|
|
The connective tissue has ____ major functions of?
|
Eight functions to bind, support, strengthen, protect, insulate, transport, store energy and for immune response
|
|
What tissue is the most abundant in the body and found everywhere?
|
Connective tissue
|
|
All connective tissue has an extracellular ____ inbetween the ____ of tissue and each functions by what it is _____
|
matrix, cells of tissue, functions by what its made of
|
|
All connective tissue are made of the same three _____
|
fibers of collagen, elastic, and reticular
|
|
Describe collagen?
|
Strong to resist pullingm arranged in parallel bundles
|
|
Elastic is made of ____ and _____
|
ellastin (protein) and fibrillin (glycoprotein)
|
|
Elastic can stretch ____ times its original length
|
150x
|
|
How is elastic fibers arranged?
|
They branch and join to form a network
|
|
Reticular fibers are arranged how and desribe them
|
Found in the stroma or organs, they are FINE parallel bundles of collagen, coated in glycoprotein for support
|
|
Loose connective tissues have what?
|
fibers all loosely intertwined
|
|
Loose connective tissue consist of what fibers?
|
of Aerolar, Adipose and Reticular
|
|
Aerolar fibers are where?
|
widely distributed and have all 3 fibers
|
|
The ground substance for Aerolar is _____ and when it combines with actipose it make _____ aka the skin below the epidermis
|
hyaluronic acid, it makes the subcutaneus layer with the actipose
|
|
Adipose has?
|
Adipose is fat and it has elastic and collagen fibers
|
|
Adipose contains _____ which store _____ and looks like ______
|
Adiposyles of triglycerides that look like bubbles
|
|
Triglycerides nucleus are ______
|
pushed to the ends
|
|
The two types of Adipocyles are?
|
white fat and brown fat
|
|
Whats the difference between white fat and brown?
|
White fat doesn't need energy to grow so it is found in adults, brown fat is baby fat that is later converted to white fat, it is found in fetus' and babies
|
|
Why is there a difference between white and brown fat?
|
With age the mitochondria differs, brown has more adipocyles because the body is growing and must keep warm
