Term
| 5 Epithelial Tissue Functions |
|
Definition
Protection
Control permeability
Move fluids over the surface
Sensation
Produce specialized secretions (glandular epithelium) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Increase absorption or secretion |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Move fluids
Usually in a tube |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Surrounds whole cell
Waterproof
Isolates waste in lumen |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Allow rapid communication
(just holes that allow things to go through) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Tie cells together with great strength
Anchored to cytoskeleton
Don't go all the way around cells |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Attach basal membrane to basal lamina |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Sticky stuff that the cell secretes to (intercellular cement)
2 adjacent cells attach to it |
|
|
Term
| To classify shape for stratified epithelium |
|
Definition
| Observe TOP layer to determine shape |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Body cavities found in serous membranes
e.g. peritoneum, pleura |
|
|
Term

Definition
Heart
Blood vessels
(so capillaries are endothelium) |
|
|
Term
Simple Squamous Epithelium
Function & Location |
|
Definition
Diffusion and filtration where
protection is not important
Absorption and Secretion
Air sacs of lungs |
|
|
Term
Simple Cuboidal Epithelium
Function & Location |
|
Definition
Absorption and Secretion
Kidney Tubules (dump fluid contents in blood)
(if nucleus is perfectly spherical, it's cuboidal) |
|
|
Term
Simple Columnar Epithelium
Function & Location |
|
Definition
Absorption and Secretion
Digestive Tract
(goblet cells are common) |
|
|
Term
| Ciliated Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium |
|
Definition
Secretion
Trachea
(all cells touch basal lamina)
(all touch basal lamina but some don't reach free surface) |
|
|
Term
Transitional Epithelia
Function & Location |
|
Definition
Expansion and recoil after stretching
Urinary bladder |
|
|
Term
Stratified Squamous Epithelium
Function & Location |
|

Definition
one or more cells that makes and secretes an aqueous fluid
Mammary Gland |
|
|
Term
Endocrine Glands
Function & Location |

Definition
Ducts of glands that produce hormones
Secretion
Pancreas |
|
|
Term
Exocrine Glands
Function & Location |
