Tissues
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| All epithelial sheets are attached to underlying connective tissue via the basement membrane – a thin extracellular layer Attached via _______ | Hemidesmosomes |
| 2 parts of Basement membrane. 1- ______ is made of a thin layer of collagen fibers, laminin, glycoproteins and proteoglycans. Is secreted by epithelial tissue. 2. _____ - thin layer of collagen fibers, lies closer to and is secreted by connective tissue. | 1. Basal lamina 2. Reticular lamina |
| Specialized contacts Epithelial cells uses to fit closer together to form continuous sheets (excluding glandular tissue). (A-E) | A:Tight Junctions B: Adheren junctions C: Desmosomes D: Hemidesmosomes E: Gap Junctions |
| ________ - Strands of transmembrane proteins that bind the outer membranes together preventing the passage of molecules between adjacent cells. Found in cells lining stomach, intestines and bladder to prevent contents from the blood or interstitum | Tight Junctions |
| _______ - Fluid filled tunnels that connect adjacent cells through connexons – fluid filled tunnels Allows for communication and fast spreading of nerve and muscle impulses for fast travel between cells | Gap Junctions |
| dense layer of proteins on the inside of the plasma membrane that attaches to both membrane proteins and to the cytoskeleton | Plaques |
| transmembrane glycoproteins that insert into the plaque in the cell membrane and extend into the intercellular space to another cadherin from an adjacent cell | Cadherins |
| Bind cells by using plaques and cadherins to form adhesive belts that completely encircle a cell Plaques are attached to microfilaments Aid in resisting separation during contractile activities | Adherens |
| Similar to adherens; however, the plaques bind to intermediate cytoskeletal filaments which attach to a plaque on the opposite side of the cell Contributes to stability of cell and resists tension | Desmosomes |
| Similar to desmosomes but uses integrins instead of cadherins Used to anchor the epithelium to the underlying connective tissue | Hemidesmosomes |
| All _______ tissues are AVASCULAR They LACK a blood supply Depend on the underlying CT for nutrients | Epithelial |
| _________ tissues are INNERVATED. They are supplied by nerve fibers. If not, you wouldn't be able to feel pain. | Epithelial |
| REGENERATION: continue to regenerate throughout life under normal conditions; ie. Epithelial cells of the skin | Labile cells |
| REGENERATION: stop regeneration after puberty unless injury or surgery ie. Kidney or liver cells | Stabile cells |
| REGENERATION: cease to regenerate after birth; ie. Nerve cells and muscle cells | Permanent cells |

| Tissue Type: Found lining upper respiratory tract | Psuedostratified |
| Tissue Type: found lining the GI tract | Simple Columnar |
| Tissue type: Very rare, lines large ducts of some glands and parts of the urethra | Stratified Columnar |
| Where is mesothelium located? | Lining body cavities |
| _____: One or more cells that make and secrete/export a production (secretion) | Gland |
| Classification of glands dependent on where the product is released | Endocrine / Exocrine |
| Classification of glands dependent on number of cells making up the gland | Unicellular / multicellular |
| ________ Glands are ductless glands that produce and secrete hormones directly ionto the extracellular space and/or blood stream. (Internal Secretions) | Endocrine Glands. EX - Pituitary gland , pancreas, ovaries/testes, thyroid, hypothalamus. Secrete: modified amino acids and steroids |
| ______ glands secrete products directly into ducts: External Secretions. Secrete products directly onto skin or into body cavities or lumens of hollow organs. Can be unicellular or multicellular | Exocrine glands |
| ____ glands secrete mucous | Mucous glands |
| _____ glands secrete oil | Sebaceous glands |
| _____ glands secrete sweat | Sweat glands |
| ______ glands secrete saliva | Salivary glands |
| ______ secretes digestive enzymes | Pancreas |
| _____ secretes bile | Liver |
| Multicellular Exocrine glands are composed of two parts: | Acinus (secretory portion) / duct |
| ______ is supplied by supporting connective tissue that extends into the gland creating lobes. | Acinus |
| Classification of Exocrine Glands by duct: | Simple: un-branched duct, Compound: Branched duct |
| Classification of Exocrine Glands by acinus: | Tubular: forms tubes, Alveolar/ acinar: small sacs, Tubuloalveaolar: both tubes and sacs |
| Mode of Secretion: _______ Glands - Secrete products via exocytosis as they are produced | Merocrine glands. EX: sweat and salivary glands |
| Mode of Secretion: _____ Glands - Accumulate their products until they rupture. | Holocrine Glands. EX: Sebaceous glands |
| Mode of Secretion: ____ Glands - Accumulate their products at apical cell which pinches off. | Apocrine Glands. EX: Mammary glands |
