4 types of tissue

Epithelial Tissue


Connective Tissue


Muscle Tissue


Nervous Tissue

Epithelial Tissue

Is a sheet of 1/more layers of closely packed cells

4 functions of epithelial tissue

Protection


Selective permeability


Secretion


Sensory Reception

Classification of Epithelial Tissue

Given 2 names


- 1st for the # of cell Layers


- 2nd for the shape of the cells

Simple Epithelial

One cell layer to the basement membrane

Stratified Epithelium

2/more layers of epithelial

Pseudostratified

Columnar epithelium: looks layered; all cells contact basement membrane

Exocrine glands

secrete their products onto body surfaces or into body cavities

Endocrine glands

internally secreting; secrete hormones (ductless glands)

Which of the following are characteristics of Epithelial Tissue?


a) cells closely bound by specialized contact


b) supported by connective tissue


c) Apical


d) secretion, protection, absorption, filtration

D) secretion, protection, absorption, filtration

Merocrine glands

package secretion into vesicles, release by oxocytosis

Apocrine glands

apical membrane pinches off, contains secreation

What tissue lines the majority of the digestive tract?

simple columnar

one of these is not like the other


Columnar


Areolar


Cuboidal


Squamous

Areolar

What tissue supports, protects and binds organs?

Connective

Contracts when stimulated by nervous system; moves the skeleton

Muscle Tissue

Receive and transmits and process electrical signals from sensory receptors

Nervous tissue

The strongest and most abundant fibers, they allow connective tissues to resist tension.

Collagen fibers

These long, thin, branching fibers form wide networks within the extracellular matrix and posses the ability to stretch and then return to their original length.

Elastic fibers

These short branching fibers cluster into delicate networks and have the ability to glide freely across one another whenever the network is pulled, allowing give

Reticular fibers

Primary tissue of ligaments and tendons

Dense regular connective tissue

Forms embryonic skeleton and covers the ends of long bones

Hyaline Cartilage

Connective tissue of the skeletal system

Bone

Primary tissue of the dermis

Dense irregular connective tissue

Liquid connective tissue found within the cardiovascular system

BLOOD

produces extracellular matrix of cartilage

Chondrblast

Embryonic origin:




Nervous Tissue

Ectoderm

Embryonic Origin:




Connective tissue and muscle tissue

Mesoderm

Embryonic Origin:




Epithelial tissue

Endoderm

Muscle tissue


Highly cellular, well vascularized tisssues responsible for most of the body movement. Voluntary movement

Skeletal muscle tissue

Muscle tissue


Propels blood into the circulation. Branching cells that appear striated


involuntary movement

Cardiac Muscle Tissue

Muscle tissue


Propels substances along internal passageways


Location: stomach, intestines, airways, urinary bladder, uterus and blood vessels

Smooth Muscle tissue
