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
The Reticular fiber is?
fine, interlacing fibers to help bind smooth muscles and filter
The Reticular fibers filters all organs with stroma EXCEPT
the kidneys
