major types of tissue
epithelial, connective, muscular, nervous
functions of epithelial tissue
protection, secretion, , absorption, filtration, excretion, senses
simple
one layer
squamous
flat cells
stratified
multiple layers
cuboidal
cube shaped
columnar
column shaped
simple squamous shape
single layer of flat cells
simple squamous function
diffusion and filtration
simple squamous location
found in air sac of the lungs
simple cuboidal shape
single layer of cube shaped cells
simple cuboidal function
secretion and absorption
simple cubiodal location
kidney tubules, surface of ovaries
simple columnar shape
single layer of long cells, have goblet cells and microvilli
simple columnar function
secretion and absorption
simple columnar location
digestive tract and uterus
goblet cells
secrete mucus
microvilli
projections that increase the cell's surface area
stratified squamous shape
several layers, flat
stratified squamous function
protection
stratified squamous location
lines body cavities; skin and mouth
what happens when the dermis pulls away from epidermis
blisters form
collagen and elastin
connective tissue
pseudostratified columnar shape
single layer with nuclei at various levels, can have goblet cells and cilia
pseudostratified columnar function
secretion and cilia-aided movement
pseudostratified columnar location
linings of respiratory passages, tubes of reproductive system
transitional epithelium shape
thick, layered cuboidal cells
transitional epithelium function
stretchable tissue, forms barrier to block diffusion
transitional epithelium location
urinary bladder
glandular epithelium
cells that are specialized to produce and secrete substances, makes up the body's glands
connective tissue
most abundant tissue in your body, binds structures together
connective tissue function
provides support, prtoection, framework, fills space, stores fat, produces blood cells, fights infection
connective tissue composed of
scattered cells within a matrix, a ground substance and fibers
common types of connective tissue cells
mast cells, macrophages, fibroblasts
main types of fibers
collagenous and elastic
collagenous fibers
strong, flexible, not very elastic, found in bones, ligaments
elastic fibers
not as strong, very elastic, found in ears, vocal
areolar tissue (loose connective tissue)
binds skin to underlying organs, forms thin membranes throughout body
adipose tissue (fat)
protective cushion, insulation to preserve body heat, stores energy
fibrous connective tissue
thick collagenous fibers and fine network of elastic fibers- few cells, poor blood supply, thus slow healing
cartilage
all cartilage cells are called chondrocytes
hyaline cartilage
covers ends of joints, padding
elastic cartilage
external ear, larynx
fibrocartilage
tough, shock absorbing, located between vertebrae
bone tissue
osseus tissue, rigid due to mineral salts
blood tissue
circulates throughout the body
muscle tissue
skeletal, cardiac, smooth
skeletal tissue
striated and voluntary
smooth tissue
hollow organs, involuntary
cardiac tissue
wall of the heart
nerve tissue
found in the brain, spinal cord, and nerves
neurons
transmit impulses
neuroglia
protection and support
