Tissues Types
Location and function of tissue types
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| simple squamous epithelium | Location: lining of heart Function: Allows passage of materials by diffusion and filtration in sites where protection is not important; secretes lubricating substances in serosae |
| simple cuboidal epithelium | Location: Kidney tubules Function: Secretion and absorption |
| simple columnar epithelium | Location: gallbladder Function: absorption; secretion of mucus enzymes, and other substances; ciliated type propels mucus(or reproductive cells) by ciliary action |
| pseuodostratified columnar epithelium | Location: ciliated variety lines the trachea Function: secretion, particularly of mucus; proplusion of mucus by ciliary action |
| Connective tissue proper:Loose connective tissue, adipose | Location: under skin Function: provides reserve fuel; insulates against heat loss; supports and protects organs |
| connective tissue proper:Loose connective tissue, areolar | Location: surrounds capillaries Function: wraps and cushions organs;its macrophages phagocutize bacteria;plays important role in inflammation; holds and conveys tissue fluid |
| connective tissue proper: loose connective tissue, reticular | Location: spleen function: fibers form a soft internal skeleton(stroma) that supports other cell types, including white blood cells, mast cells, and macrophages |
| connective tissue proper:Dense connective tissue, dense regular(cells compact) | Location: tendons function: attaches muscles to bones or to muscles;attaches bone to bones;withstands great tensile stress when pulling force is applied in one direction |
| connective tissue proper:Dense connective tissue,dense irregular | Location: Dermis of the skin Function: able to withstand tension exerted in many directions; provides structural strength |
| Blood | Location: contained within blood vessels function: transport of repiratory gases, nutrients, wastes, and other substances |
| Giant multipolar neuron | location: brain Function: transmit electrical signals from sensory receptors and to effectors(muscles and glands)which control their activity |
