Goodcare LPN Biology C 4 Tissues, Glands, and Membranes
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| 4 main types of tissues in the human body | Epithelial Connective Muscle Nervous |
| Has a “Free” (or Apical) Surface | Epithelial Tissue |
| Epithelial Tissue categorized as | simple, stratified, or pseudostratified |
| Connected Below to a Basement Layer | Epithelial Tissue |
| May be squamous, cuboidal, or columnar | Epithelial Tissue |
| Gets its name because it changes its shape | Transitional Epithelium |
| Specialized to produce some sort of secretions and are usually associated with columnar or cuboidal epithelial tissue. | Glandular epithelial cells |
| May be endocrine or exocrine. | Glands |
| Some of these cells are referred to as mucous glands and goblet cells | Gland Cells |
| These tissue mind, provide support and protection, serve as frameworks, fill spaces, store fat, produce blood cells, protect against infections, and help repair tissue damage | Connective tissues |
| These tissue have an abundant extracellular matrix and the fact that they are farther apart than cells of other tissue types | Connective tissues |
| These tissue may be solid, semi-solid, or even liquid | Connective tissue |
| The extracellular matrix is composed of protein fibers and ground substance | Connective tissue |
| Cell types in connective tissue | Fibroblasts, macrophages, and mast cells |
| Circulating Connective Tissue | Loose connective tissue Dense connective tissue Cartilage Bone Tissue |
| Loose connective tissue | Areolar tissue Adipose tissue Reticular tissue |
| Dense connective tissue | Tendons Ligaments |
| Includes areolar tissue and Adipose tissue | Loose connective tissue |
| Tissue may be irregular or regular | dense connective tissue |
| Cartilage may be | Hyaline cartilage Elastic cartilage Fibrocartilage |
| This tissue's main characteristic is its ability to contract and relax, enabling movement | Muscle tissue |
| Skeletal, smooth and cardiac are the 3 main types of what tissue | Muscle tissue |
| The most highly specialized type of tissue | Nervous Tissue |
| Composed of special conducting cells called neurons | Nervous Tissue |
| Neuroglia | Makes up most of the nerve tissue |
| Provide help and support for the highly specialized but delicate neurons | Neuroglia |
| Thin, sheet like structures composed of epithelium and underlying connective tissue | Epithelial membranes |
| The major types of epithelial membranes | Serous Mucous Cutaneous |
| A different type, composed entirely of connective tissues and associated with bones | Synovial membrane |
| Pleural Serous Pericardium Peritoneum | Specific types of Serous Membranes |
| Associated with the lungs and thoracic cavity. | Pleural Membrane |
| Associated with the heart | Serous Pericardium |
| Associated with the abdomen, especially digestive system | Peritoneum |
| Frequently associated with openings to the body. Form linings to digestive, respiratory, etc systems. Rich in goblet cells to produce mucous | Mucous Membranes |
| Types of Connective Tissue Membranes | Synovial, Fascia, Superficial fascia, Deep fascia, Fibrous pericardium |
| Mostly associated with joints, but also form meninges. | Synovial membrane (tissue) |
| Covers or separates | Fascia |
| Associated with skin, also called subcutaneous fascia. | Superficial fascia |
| Located in and around muscle and nerve fibers and blood vessels. | Deep fascia |
| Helps protect the heart | Fibrous pericardium |
| Form meninges | Synovial tissue |
