Epithelial Tissue

Glands (secretory) and epithelium; avascular; forms protective blanket to regulate permeability; cells show polarity

What are the functions of epithelium?

Physical protection, control permeability, provide sensation, produce specialized secretions

4 functions; think skin

Specializations of epithelium

Perform secretory and transport functions, maintain physical integrity, ciliated ones move materials across their surfaces



3 things; performing, maintaining and moving

What is the structure of a typical epithelium?

Basal Lamina (lamina lucida and densa); germinative cells replace short-lived ones

Basal and its Lucy and Deny

3 cell shapes of Epithelia

Squamous, Cuboidal and Columnar

Numbers of cell layers

Simple and stratified

Squamous epithelium

Simple: alveoli of lungs and inner lining of cornea


Stratified: skin and lining of mouth

Simple: breath and see


Strat: feel and eat

Cuboidal epithelium

Simple: glands and ducts


Stratified: linings of some ducts (rare)

Simple: sweat


Strat: quack

Columnar epithelium

Simple: gallbladder and intestine


Pseudostratified ciliated: lining of nasal cavity and trachea


Strat: epiglottis and anus


Transitional: bladder and renal pelvis

Simple: bile and digest


Pseudostrat: in the nose and windpipe


Strat: swallow and poop


Trans: pee and hip thrusts

2 types of Glandular epithelia

Exocrine gland: secrete through ducts onto surface


Endocrine gland: releases hormones into surrounding fluid

Teenage tears

State the 3 kinds of Grandular secretions.

Merocrine (product released by exocytosis)


Apocrine (loss of product and cytoplasm)


Holocrine (destroys the cell)

Mero lets his Ex go after the destructive Holocaust and after losing Apo.

Name the simple exocrine glands.

Simple Tubular, Simple coiled tubular, simple branched, simple alveolar, simple branched alveolar

5 kinds.

Name the compound exocrine glands.

Compound tubular, compound alveolar, compound tubuloalveolar



Give examples for each of the simple exocrine glands.

Tubular: intestinal glands


Coiled tubular: sweat glands


Branched tubular: tongue


Alveolar: not found in adults; only a stage


Branched alveolar: oil glands

4 examples, 1 is a stage

Give examples for each compound gland.

Tubular: mucous mouth glands


Alveolar: mammary glands


Tubuloalveolar: salivary glands

3 examples

Functions of Connective Tissue

Establishes structure, transports fluids, protects delicate organs, supports, surrounds and interconnects tissues, stores energy reserves and defends body

8 functions

3 types of connective tissues

Connective Tissue Proper, Fluid Connective Tissues, Supporting Connective Tissues

Examples for each connective tissues

CTP: Loose and Dense


FCT: Blood and Lymph


SCT: Cartilage and Bone



What do connective tissues contain?

Specializes cells and matrix (protein fibers and ground substance)

Connective Tissue Proper

Varied cell populations, various fiber types and syrupy ground substance, classified as loose or dense

4 characteristics

Fluid Connective Tissue

Contains distinctive cell population, watery ground substance with dissolved proteins

2 characteristics

Supporting Connective Tissue

Small cell population, dense ground substance, closely packed fibers

3 characteristics

Types of cells found in connective tissue

Macrophage, adipocytes, mesenchymal cells, fibroblasts, melanocytes, mast cells, lymphocytes, and microphages
