Tissue
A group of similar cells w/ similar function.
What are the 4 basic types of tissue?
Epithelial, Connective, Muscle, and Nerve Tissue
Epithelial Tissue
1. Covers surfaces
2. Lines body cavities and cavities in organs
3. Closely packed together
4. Attached to a basement membrane
5. Has a free, exposed surface opposite the membrane.
6. No blood vessels
7. Regenerates rapidly by mitosis
Epithelial Tissue may be composed of one or more layers of cells. What are the 2 different classifications?
Simple Epitheluim
Stratified Epithelial
Simple Epithelial tissues are classified as:
Squamous
Cuboidal
Clumnar
Pseudostratied
Epithelial Simple Squamous Cells
one layer
flat, irregular outline
central nucleous
aids in diffusion, osmosis, and filtration
Locations: air sacs in lungs, kidneys, serous linings of the venral cavity, heart, blood, and lymphatic vessels
Epithelial Cuboidal Cells
Cubed shaped
Single central nucleuos
Locations: secretory glands (thyroid, salivary), kidney tubules, andsurface of ovaries
Epithelial Columnar Cells
Elongated
Has goblet cells that make mucous, secretion and absorption
Locations: linings of uterus and tubes also have cilia
Intestinals surfaces have microvilli.
Epithelial Pseudostratified Columnar
Appear layered but all attached to membrane.
Some do not reach surface
Have goblet cells
Location: Line upper respitory passages.
Stratified Epithelial Tissue
Our skin
Consists of more than 1 layer of cells, which makes them more durable to abrasion.
Only the inner most layer of cells produce new cells by mitotic cell division.
Cells on the surface layer are continuously lost as the dieand rubbed off by abrasion
Serves as protection of underlining tissue
May nhave outer layer of keratin
Nonkeratinized areas include mouth, esophagus, vagina.
Which stratified cuboidal and columnar cells are rare?
C-mammary glands
Col.-pharynx and male urethra
Where are stratified transitional cells found?
urinary bladder where stretching is necessary
A connective Tissue that stores fat.
Adipose Tissue
A connective tissue with a relatively rigid, semisolid matrix.
Cartilage
A cartilage cell.
Chondrocyte
A thin tissue that covers body and organ surfaces and lines the body cavities.
Epithelial Tissue
A cell that produces fibers in connective tissue.
Fibroblast
The intracellular substance in connective tissue.
Matrix
A tissues whose cells are specialized for contraction
Muscle Tissue
A tissue that forms the brain, spinal cord, and nerves.
Nerve Tissue
A nerve cell.
Neurons
A hard connective tissue w/ a rigid matrix of calium salts; bone.
Osseous Tissue
A bone cell.
Ostocyte
Cells appear to be arranged in layers, but they are not.
Pseudostratified
A group of similar cells performing similar function.
Tissue
What are the 4 types of simple epithelial tissue?
Squamous
Cuboidal
Columnar
Pseudostratified ciliated columnar
What are 2 types of
stratified Epithelial?
Squamous
Tranditional
What are 4 types of
Connective Tissue proper?
Loose connective tissue
Adipose connective tissue
Fibrous connective tissue
Elastic connective tissue
What are the 3 types of specialized connective tissue?
Cartilage (hyaline, elastic, fibrocartilage)
Bone
Blood

What are the structure, location, and functions of Simple Epithelial Columnar tissue?
S-Single layer of columnlike cells
L- Lining the digestive tract
F- secretion, obsorption, protection
What are the structure, location, and functions of Simple Epithelial Ciliated Columnar tissue?
S- Single layer of ciliated columnlike cells that appears as multiple layers
L- lining of upper air passages
F-sweeps away mucus and foreign particles, secretion, protection
What are the structure, location, and functions of Squamous Stratified Epithelia Tissue?
S- Multiple layers of flat cells
L- outer portion of the skin
F- Protection
What are the structure, location, and functions of Transitional Stratified Epithelia Tissue?
S- Multiple layers of oval cells that flatten when the tissue is stretched.
L- Lining of the urinary bladder
F-protection
