ciliated
cuboidal
Definition
Kinds of epithelium
Term
squamous
Definition
– cells are flat and polygonal resembling like tiles in the pavement. Found in outermost part of the skin.
Term
columnar
Definition
elongated and prismatic due to the pressure exerted by the neighboring cells. The epithelium is found in the linings of the digestive tube.
Term
ciliated
Definition
– specially found in trachea. With hair-like structure known as cilia.
Term
Cuboidal
Definition
– found in the lumen of the kidney.
Term
simple
stratified
pseudostratified
transitional
Definition
Classification of Epithelium by layers
Term
Diffusion, Filtration, Secretion, Absorption, Protection
Definition
Cell layers and shapes of epithelium
Term
microvilli
Definition
Increase surface area absorption or secretion
Term
cilia
Definition
Move materials across cell surface
Term
Desmosomes, tight, gap
Definition
Cell connections of epirthelial
Term
exocrine
Definition
Have ducts
Term
endocrine
Definition
Have no ducts
Term
connective tissue
Definition
This tissue supports, bounds and connects together the different parts of the body. Cells are loosely arranged, with large amount of matrix between them.
Term
Enclosing and separating as capsules around organs
Connecting tissues to one another as tendons and ligaments
Supporting and moving as bones
Storing as fat
Cushioning and insulating as fat
Transporting as blood
Protecting as cells of the immune system
Definition
Functions of Connective Tissue
Term
Specialized cells
Definition
Produce the extracellular matrix
Term
1.blasts
2.cyte
3.clasts
Definition
1. create the matrix
2. maintain the matrix
3. break the matrix down for remodeling
Term
adipose
Definition
fat cells
Term
heparin and histamine
Definition
mast cells contain
Term
white blood cells
Definition
(connective tissue) respond to injury or infection
Term
macrophages
Definition
that phagocytize or provide protection
Term
areolar tissue
Definition
the matrix is composed of fibers embossed in a liquid amorphous substance.
Term
1.Collagenous of White Fibers
2.Elastic or Yellow Fibers
3.Reticular Fibers
Definition
3 kinds of fibers
Term
collagen fibers/ white fibers
Definition
most common. Long wavy and consist of bundles of fine fibrils known as fibrillae which lie parallel along with each other that gives a long striated appearance.
Term
elastic fibers/ yellow fibers
Definition
occur singly and do not consist of fibrils. They branch and appear darker than the individual white fibers.
Term
reticular fibers
Definition
– fine, wavy, branched and form a network.
Term
Adipose connective tissue
Definition
–this tissue fills up the spaces between organs. Cells are round and appear hollow with thin cytoplasm at its periphery. The small flattened nucleus is located close to the cell membrane. This appearance of the cell is due to the destruction of the stored fat globule during the preparation of the cell.
Term
cartilage connective tissue
Definition
Obtainable from ends of ribs, articular surfaces of the long bones, tip of the nose and ears.
Term
hyaline
Definition
The matrix is glass-like of opalescent bluish ground substance called
Term
lacunae
Definition
Scattered in hyaline matrix are several spaces called
Term
Chondrocytes
Definition
In the lacuna are lodged cells called
Term
Perichondrium
Definition
The connective tissue envelope which forms the outermost covering of the cartilage is the
Term
fibrocartilage
Definition
Slightly compressible and very tough
Found in areas of body where a great deal of pressure is applied to joints
Knee, jaw, between vertebrae
Term
Elastic Cartilage
Definition
Rigid but elastic properties
External ears, epiglottis
Term
bone or osseus tissue
Definition
make up the framework of the body and offers protection of many vital organ.
Term
lamellae
Definition
The bone matrix is arranged in somewhat regular coecentric rings called
Term
osteocytes
Definition
Within the bone matrix are _____ are lodged.
Term
canaliculi
Definition
Arising from the lacuna are branching canals called the
Term
Harvesian canal
Definition
In the center of each lamellae is a cavity called
Term
osteon
Definition
The lamellae which encloses a haversian canal constitute a haversian canal system called
Term
osteon
Definition
___-is also known to be the structural unit of the bone tissue.
Term
Blood or vascular tissue
Definition
_____is a circulating tissue.
It functions as the transporting medium in the body carrying gases to and from the tissues.
It also protects the body from the effects of disease causing foreign organism.
This tissue is composed of a liquid medium and formed elements.
