BIOL 241 - Histology
Histology
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Tissue class characterized by cells that are tightly packed together, stabilize by tight junctions | epithelial tissue |
| Tissue class characterized by cells that are not tightly packed together; cells secrete a matrix: | connective tissue |
| Tissue class characterized by cells that are capable of contraction | muscle tissue |
| Tissue class with cells that line other tissues and have an apical surface: | epithelial tissue |
| Tissue class with cells have a basement membrane: | epithelial tissue |
| Basal lamina is secreted by | epithelial cells |
| The basement membrane is avascular | true |
| Reticular lamina is secreted by | connective tissue |
| One cell thick; all cells attached to the basement membrane: | simple |
| Flat | squamous |
| Simple squamous epithelium | thin, delicate tissue, allows easy passage of materials, found in the alveoli of the lungs |
| Endothelium and mesothelium are both | simple squamous epithelium |
| Tend to be secretory, making up glands, as well as absorptive: | simple cuboidal epithelium |
| Fallopian tubes, uterus, and the central canal of the spinal cord all have this tissue that functions to move fluid along | ciliated simple columnar epithelium |
| Thyroid follicle cells, kidney tubules and pancreatic ducts are all made of this tissue | simple cuboidal epithelium |
| Lines trachea and nasal cavity; nuclei at different levels so it looks stratified: | pseudo stratified ciliated columnar epithelium |
| All cells are in direct contact with the basement membrane: | pseudo stratified columnar epithelium, simple cuboidal epithelium |
| Goblet cells secret | mucus |
| Lines the lower esophagus through the guy to the anus: | simple columnar epithelium |
| Upper layers of this tissue are dead and slough off; thus, it is protective: | stratified squamous epithelium |
| Lining of the urinary bladder; cells can stretch from cuboidal to nearly squamous: | Transitional epithelium |
| Epidermis | Stratified squamous epithelium, keratinized |
| Lining of the tongue, oral cavity, or- and laryngopharynx, vagina, anus: | stratified squamous epithelium, non-keratinized |
| Integument | stratified squamous epithelium, keratinized; areolar connective tissue, dense irregular connective tissue |
| Have ducts; derived from epithelial tissue: | exocrine glands |
| Have blast cells that secrete and are separated by a matrix | connective tissue |
| Matrix of irregular fibers of collagen, elastin and reticular fibers, all secreted by fibroblasts found in the upper layer of the dermis, around blood vessels and around organs | areolar connective tissue |
| Provides cushioning and support subcutaneously; makes up most of the breast tissue; also found around the heart and kidneys; stores triglycerides in vacuoles: | adipose tissue |
| Matrix secreted secreted by reticulocytes; matrix a spider web-like tangle of protein fibers; found in lymph nodes and nodules: | reticular connective tissue |
| Provides elastic support and connections for tissues: | areolar connective tissue |
| Fibroblasts secrete matrix that's tightly packed, wavy and has a uniform structure; makes up tendons, ligaments and aponeuroses | dense, regular connective tissue |
| Function: Reticulations trap particles, allow phagocytosis by macrophages in spleen, lymph nodes and nodules: | reticular connective tissue |
| Fibroblasts secrete a dense, chunky matrix of collagen; found in the lower later of the dermis, organ membrane capsules, puristic and perichondria: | dense, irregular connective tissue |
| Fibroblasts secrete elastic fibers that provide elastic support in the elastic support in the respiratory system, artery walls, ligaments of the vertebrae and the suspensory ligaments of the penis: | elastic connective tissue |
| Connective type characterized by osteocytes in the lacunae: | osseus |
| Ground substance is chondroitin sulfate: avascular, no nerve endings and covered by perichondrium: | cartilage |
| Has striations; multi-nucleated, contractile: | skeletal muscle |
| A liquid connective tissue: | blood connective tissue |
| Connective type of characterized by chondrocytes in the lacunae: | cartilage |
| Cartilage found in nose, larynx, rings of trachea, and bronchi, ends of long bones and ribs; makes up the skeleton of fetuses | hyaline cartilage |
| Cartilage found in invertible discs, the pubic symphysis and knee menisci; functions as a shock absorber: | fibrocartilage |
| Cartilage found in the auricle of the ear and in the epiglottis: | elastic cartilage |
| Matrix ground substance is hydroxyapetite: | osseus tissue |
| Functions of this connective tissue includes hematopoiesis and calcium storage: | osseus tissue |
| The cell types of this connective tissue includes erythrocytes, leucocytes, and thrombocytes: | blood |
| Feed, protect and support neurons: | neuroglia |
| Contractile; striated, multinucleate, not branched: | skeletal muscle |
| Contractile, not striated; slow to tire | smooth muscle |
| Contractile; striated; does not tire | cardiac muscle |
| Contractile; voluntary; quick to tire: | skeletal muscle |
| Contractile; lines blood vessels, ducts and the guy | smooth muscle |
| Contractile; striated; uninucleate: | cardiac muscle |
| Epidermis and dermis of the skin: | cutaneous membrane |
| Lines the gut, respiratory tracts and reproductive tracts: | mucous membrane |
| Lines the body cavity and covers the organs: | serous membrane |
| Does not have an epithelium component; made of areolar connective tissue one: | synovial membrane |
| Cushions and nourishes joints: | synovial membrane |
