Cards

Term
what do you call a collection of specialized cells?
Definition
tissues
Term
what are characteristics of epithelial tissue?
Definition
covers and lines the external and internal body surfaces providing protection.  contains vessels and cavities.
Term
what tissue makes up the oral cavity? what does it look like?
Definition

stratified squamous epithelium

 

it is cuboidal at base and flat on top

Term
what are some functions of epithelial tissue?
Definition

absorption

secretion (sweat/saliva)

sensory gathering (pressure/pain)

specialized functions

Term
what is epithelial tissue derived from:
Definition

primal tissues

-ectoderm

-endoderm

-mesoderm

Term
what type of tissue shows up as falsly appearing layers
Definition
psuedostratified
Term
where is new tissue
Definition

at basement membrane

 

 

they move up/out to surface as they mature and die

Term
how are epithelial tissues connected?
Definition
by desmosomes
Term
where do nutrients come from?
Definition
connective tissues
Term
what separates epithelium and connective tissue?
Definition
basement membrane
Term
does the basement membrane have blood supply
Definition
no it is avascular/ no blood supply
Term
if cells are connected to the basement membrane, are they hemidesomosomes or desmosomes?
Definition
hemidesmosomes only one side has tonofibrils
Term
what are the two main categories of epithelial tissues?
Definition

stratified (layered)

 

unstratified (single/simple)

Term
where can you find transitional epithelial tissue?
Definition
in bladder
Term
where can you find stratified squamous epithelial tissue?
Definition
in oral cavity
Term
where can you find pseudostratified epithelial tissues?
Definition
in respiratory system
Term
with unstratified epithelium do all cells touch basement membrane
Definition
yes all unstratified epithelium touch basement membrane
Term
if epithelium is stratified it must have at least____ layers?
Definition
2 layers
Term
what provides the extension of epithelium into connective tissue?
Definition

rete pegs/rete ridges

 

(in sulcular epithelium rete pegs only show on outside)

Term
what is like scar tissue?
Definition
rete pegs are like scar tissue
Term
what are some examples of unstratified epithelium?
Definition

blood vessels, heart

lungs, kidney

Term
where would you find keratinized stratified squamous epithelium?
Definition
hands and feet
Term
where would you find unkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium?
Definition
buccal mucosa
Term
what are the types of basil lamina?
Definition

lamina lucida

lamina densa

hemidesomosome layer 

Term
what lamina holds things together/gives padding and causes stippling and is a loose connective tissue?
Definition
lamina propria
Term
where is new connective tissue made and new epithelium made?
Definition
by fibroblasts and are located in the connective tissue!!!
Term
what do fibroblasts do?
Definition
help repair, make new tissue
Term
from the basement membrane what is the order of connective tissue?
Definition

basement membrane

loose connective tissue

dense connective tissue

Term
what happens during injury/ clot repair
Definition

injury

clot

inflammation and wbc's

fibroblasts migrate to produce immature connective tissue

imature connective tissue is granulation tissue!!!

Term

describe granulation tissue

 

Definition

newest tissue

moist, oozy

few fibers but lots of blood vessels

red and bleeds easily

it is replaced with scar tissue

Term
describe scar tissue
Definition

more fibers 

fewer blood vessels

Term
what are some types of specialized tissue
Definition
adipose and elastic tissue
