A&PL: Language

QuestionAnswer
Axial region includes head, trunk, neck Runs along vertical axis of the body
Appendicular region includes limbs
other names for limbs? appendages and extremities
label anatomical regional and directional terminology of human vs dog.
what is another name for coronal plane frontal
what are other names for transverse plane horizontal, sections may be called cross sections.
what is a diagonal cut called oblique
What is the serous membrane AKA serosa. A double layered membrane that coveres ithe inner walls of the ventral cavity and outer surfaces of organs.
parietal serosa serous membrane that covers the cavity walls
Visceral serosa serous membrane that covers the external surface of organs within the cavity
What is the purpose of the serous membrane to create lubricating fluid that allows the visceral organs to slide over one another or against the body with minimal friction. also prevents from infection travelling from one organ to the other.
What are the smaller cavities? Orbital, oral, middle ear, nasal, and synovial
Where is the synovial cavity found in a joint between the neck and vertebrae, joint cavities enclosed between fibrous capsules that surround freely moving joints of body ex: vertebrae, knee, hip.
What are the two major body membranes? epithelial and synovial membrane
What sections does epithelial membrane have 3 mucous membrane serous membrane cutaneous membrane
what are the characteristics of synovial membrane and where is it found found lining the cavities of moveable joins lacks a true epithelium lines the cavities of synovial joints
what are characteristics of mucous membrane lines internal cavities of organs, contains both the elithelial layer and the lamina propria
The epithelial layer contains? goblet cells and mucus
What is the lamina propria connective tissue layer, ex: areolar loose connective tissue proper
The serous membrane contains to regions? mesothelium and endothelium
What is the mesothelium? lines body cavities with no connection to exterior of the body. contains either visceral or parietal with fliuid in-between.
What is the endothelium Lines the interior of the heart and blood vessels./
the cutaneous membrane is skin either stratified squamous keratinizing epithelium or dermis (connective tissue)
The synovial membrane? lines cavities of moveable joints. lacks true epithelium and lines synovial joints
All connective tissue is derived from an embryonic tissue known as mesenchyme
secretions is a specialty of globular epithelium
what are the different functions of epithelial tissue protect, support, absorb, secrete, filter
What are the two secretion glands of ET Endocrine and exocrine glands
Endocrine glands loose surface connection as it develops and becomes dductless, so, secrete hormones into the extracellular fluid
Exocrine glands retain ducts and secretions empty to the body surface or into body cavities. sweat, oil glands, liver, and pancreas
function of simple squamous ET diffusion and filtration, secretes lubricating substance ex: air sacs. lblood vessels, serosa, kidney glomeruli
function of simple cuboidal secrete and absorb kidney tubules, ovary surface, ducts and secretory portions of small glands
function of simple columnar epithelium absorb, secrete mucous, enzymes, other substances, ciliated propels mucus/reproductive cells localized: digestive tract, stomach, gallbladder, excretory ducts, ciliated: bronchi, uterine tubes, some regions of uterus
pseudostratified columnar epithelium secretes, propulsion nonciliated: male sperm carrying ducts, l ciliated: trachea and UR tract
stratified squamous epithelium protect nonkeratinized: moist linigs of esophagus, mouth, vaina, keratinized: epidermis of skin, dry membranes
stratified cuboidal epithelium protection, large sweat gland ducts mammary glands salivary glands
stratified columnar epithelium protection and secretion rare small amounts in male urethra and large ducts of some glands
transitional epithelium stretches, lines ureters, urinary bladder, and part of urehtra
what are other names for hypodermis superficial fossa or SQ layer
what is the most widely and abundant tissue: CT
what is the function of CT: protect, support, insulate, bind together
what type of tissue is ligaments made of? dense regular CT
ligaments bind what bone to bone
tendon binds what mucle to bone
what is the function of areolar CTP packages and cushions that protect body organs
Adipose CTP insulates and source of stored energy
what cell type secretes it matrix fibroblast
