Tissues

QuestionAnswer
What are the four types of tissue? what do they make up? epithelial (body linings, glands) connective tissue (bones/cartilage, ligaments/tendons, blood and fat) muscle tissue (muscle) nervous tissue (nerves and shit)
What is is epithelial tissue? Where is it derived from, what is is overall function, provide examples. tissue making up linings of body such as skin and glands. overall function is to provide protection, sensation, control permeability, allow secretions
Describe the structural characteristics of epithelial tissue -cellularity: made up of many cells bound together by several types of intercellular junctions. There is little extracellular matrix -basal surface of epithelia attached to connective tissue below it via the BASEMENT MEMBRANE
Describe how epithelial cells are classified by layer and shape of cells layer (simple, stratified) apical surface AKA shape (squamous, cuboidal, columnar, transitional)
What are glands? distinguish between exocrine and endocrine glands specialized secretory tissues occurring in epithelium . Exocrine glands have ducts and can secrete to end of duct. -Endocrine glands are ductless and transfer hormones by secreting them into bloodstream
What is is connective tissue? Where is it derived from, what is is overall function, provide examples. most diverse, abundant, widely distributed, structurally varied tissue type derived from mesoderm. Overall function to support,, protect, bind organs (the glue binding structures together). Blood, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, bones, adipose
Describe the structural characteristics of connective tissue. -different types of specialized cells scattered through connective tissue (fixed vs. free) resulting in different levels of density tissue :. variety -specialized cells for special tissues of support, connection, fluid connection
Describe the three protein fibers found in connective tissue extracellular matrix -strengthen and support -Collagen: AKA white fiber, most abundant long & strong connective -Elastic: stretch (elastic properties) -Reticular: branching framework allow to contribute to structure of walls of hollow organs
Provide some functions of connective tissue -protection: bones, blood&organs (immune protection) -support and structural framework, binding of structures: bones, cartilage, tendons and ligaments -storage: adipose -transport: blood
Connect Tissue 1: Areolar. Give the structure and function as well as an example -loose connective tissue fiber made up of all three protein fibers found in connective tissue -surrounds and protect organs, connects skin to underlying structure -papillary layer of dermis
Connect Tissue 2: Adipose. Give the structure and function as well as an example -loose connective tissue formed by adipocytes -stores E for thermoregulation and to surround and cushion organ -subcutaneous fat
Connect Tissue 3: Cartilage. Give the structure and function. Describe the three types of cartilage and where they can be found -supportive, dense connective tissue formed by chondrocytes ("cartilage-cells") -THREE TYPES: Hyaline (joints), elastic (ear), fibrocartilage (sturdiest, little mobility, found in ligaments, tendons, intervertebral discs
Connect Tissue 4: Bone. Give the structure and function. Give the two types of bone -supportive, dense connective tissue formed by osteocytes, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts -support, protect, nutrient storage -compact (darker, solid) vs spongy (bridges of bone tissue)
Connect Tissue 5: Fluid. Give the structure and function as well as an example -refers to blood and lymph -blood: consists of plasma (fluid), erythrocytes (RBC), leukocytes (WBC), and platelets (clotting particles) -lymph: derived from plasma, has no formed elements -both transport good stuff in and bad stuff out
Define the different classifications of connective cells/tissues (Proper -dense, loose, special. Supporting-cartilage, bone). Connective Tissue- loose (protein fibers create loose framework), dense (protein fibers packed) Fluid Connective Tissue- blood, lymph Supporting Connective Tissue- cartilage (solid rubbery), bone (solid crystalline)
What is muscle tissue? Where is it derived from? What is its function? muscle. mesoderm. generates tension and moves shit around like bones, blood, food, semen ykyk
Three types of muscle tissue. Determine if striated and voluntary skeletal (S, V) cardiac (S, UV) smooth (US, UV)
What is nervous tissue? What is its role? Where is nervous tissue found? nervous system tissue, coordination and communication, brain, spinal cord, nerves
What cells make up nervous tissue? What are their roles? neurons: send electrical impulses glial cells: support, "helper"
What happens to tissues when they are no longer used, used less, age, etc? Tissues change structurally and chemically
Four common tissue changes hypertrophy: increase size due to increase cell size hyperplasia: increase size due to increase cell number neoplasia: out of control growth (tumor) atrophy: decrease size due to decrease cell size or number
how do tissues vary? how are they similar? -all derived from primary germ layers -vary with respect to structures, functions, specialized cells, presence of extracellular space
how do simple and stratified epithelial cells differ in terms of permeability simple is weak with only one layer of cells :. very leaky :. great for diffusion stratified is multilayer-- very strong. Little permeability.
explain the the four types of apical surfaces of epithelial cells AKA shape of cells squamous: flat, irregularly shaped like eggs cuboidal: sides of about equal length columnar: taller than wide transitional: change shape due to stretchy, push, etc
how do glands secrete their substances? glands hold the substances (that are to be secreted) in their cells. When really to secrete, disintegrate cells and contents are able to leave gland.
Define osteocytes, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts and how they play a role in tissue connective tissue cells specialized for bone. osteocytes: bone cell/ cells inside bone osteoblasts: formation of new bone osteoclasts: break down aged bone
