TermDefinition
where is the simple squamous located? (4) alveoli of the lungs, lines blood and lymph nodes, body cavities found in diffusion and filtration
where is simple cuboidal located (3) kidney tubules, covers ovaries, lines ducts of some glands
simple cuboidal functions urine formation in kidneys, and glandular secretions
simple columnar location (ciliated-2 and nonciliated-6) nonciliated: uterus, stomach, and intestines- protect underlying tissues, secret digestive fluids, absorb nutrients. ciliated: uterine tubes and help move egg cells towards uterus
stratified cuboidal location (6) lines ducts of mammary glands, sweat glands, salivary glands, pancreas, ovarian follicles, and seminiferous tubules.
stratified squamous location (5) outer layer of skin (epidermis), lines the mouth, esophagus, vagina, anal canal
stratified columnar location (2) male urethra and linings of large gland ducts
stratified cuboidal function forms linings of lumen and provides greater protection thana single cell layer
epithelial function protection, secretion, absorption, excretion
epithelial location cover body surface, cover and line internal organs compose glands
epithelial characteristics lack blood vessels, readily divide; cells are tightly packed
connective function bind, support, protect, fill spaces, store fat, produce blood cells
connective location widely distributed throughout body
connective characteristics mostly have good blood supply; cells are farther apart than epithelial cells with extracellular matrix in between
muscle function movement
muscle location attached to bones, in the walls of hollow internal organs, heart
muscle characteristics able to contract in response to specific stimuli
nervous function conduct impulses for coordination, regulation, integration, and sensory reception
nervous location brain, spinal cord, nerves
nervous characteristics cells communicate with each other and other body parts
what kind of tissue if areolar tissue loose connective tissue
what kind of tissue is adipose tissue loose connective tissue
what kind of tissue is reticular connective tissue loose connective tissue
areolar tissue function binds organs
areolar tissue location beneath skin, between muscles, beneath epithelial tissues
adipose tissue function protects insulates, stores fat
adipose tissue location beneath skin, around kidneys, behind eyeballs, on surface of heart
reticular connective tissue function supports
reticular connective tissue location in walls of liver and spleen
dense connective tissue function binds body parts
dense connective tissue location tendons, ligaments, deep layer of skin
what kind of tissue is hyaline cartilage special connective tissue
what kind of tissue is elastic cartilage special connective tissue
what kind of tissue is fibrocartilage special connective tissue
what kind of tissue is bone special connective tissue
what kind of tissue is blood special connective tissue
elastic, hyaline, and fibrocartilage function supports, protects, provides (flexible-e) framework
bone function supports, protects, absorbs shock
blood function transports substances, helps maintain stable internal environment
hyaline cartilage location ends of bones, nose, rings in the walls of respiratory passages
elastic cartilage location framework of external ear and parts of larynx
fibrocartilage location between bony parts of spinal column, parts of pelvic girdle and knee
bone location bones of skeletons
blood location throughout the body within a closed system of blood vessels and heart chambers
skeletal muscle tissue function voluntary movements of skeletal parts
skeletal muscle tissue location head, trunk, limbs, muscles attached to bones (striated)
smooth muscle tissue function involuntary movements of internal organs (lacks striations)
cardiac muscle tissue function contraction for heart beats (striated)
plasma membrane defines the outer shell of a cell
mitochondria organelles in the cytoplasm that make ATP "the power house of the cell"
ribosome very large enzymes that make polypeptides
rough ER essential for producing and processing proteins required for cell function and secretion
golgi apparatus collects, modifies, and pocket substances manufactured by the cell
smooth ER essential for lipid production, lacks ribosomes, calcium regulation, metabolic processing that supports diverse cellular activities across tissues
lysosome breaks down worn out organelles, debris, and large ingested particles within the cell
nucleus the control center of the cell, contains the cell's DNA and is bounded by a membrane
cytoplasm jelly like substance that contains everything inside the cell membrane except the nucleus
what produces spindle fibers centrioles
what is the biomolecule for a quick source of energy carbs
when using a microscope start on the low magnification
cell type for neurons neurogila
cell type for areolar fibroblasts
cell type for cartilage chondrocytes
cell type for osseous (bone) osteocytes
cell type for vascular (blood) blood cells
cytoskeleton gives the cell support and strength
what is not found in the cell membrane DNA
which biomolecule has long term energy storage lipids
monomer of protien amino acids
monomer of lipids triglycerides
monomer of carbs monosaccharides
monomer of nucleic acids nucleotides
3 molecules that are protiens hemoglobin, polypeptides, amino acids
lumen surfaces faces the inside world (deeper body cells)
apical surfaces faces the outside world
collagen tough protein found in bone
glands group of cells that secrets a chemical substance ex: hormone
peptide bond type of bond that bines amino acids together
centriole short cylinder made of nine triplets of parallel microtubules
what charactestic is unique to cartilage lacks a vascular system
Which structure surrounds cartilaginous tissues? Perichondrium
What are the chambers that contain bone cells called? Lacunae
Which component of blood is responsible for oxygen transport? Red blood cells
Which characteristic makes bone the most rigid connective tissue? Mineral salts
What type of cartilage is found in intervertebral discs? Fibrocartilage
Which type of muscle tissue is characterized by branching cells with intercalated discs? Cardiac muscle
What distinguishes skeletal muscle cells from other muscle types? Multiple nuclei
During inflammation, what happens to blood vessels? They dilate and become more permeable
What is the primary characteristic that gives smooth muscle its name? Its lack of striations
What percentage of energy is released as heat during catabolic reactions? 60%
What type of healing occurs in superficial cuts? Reproducing epithelial cells
In nervous tissue, which structure receives stimuli? Dendrites
What determines the first step in a metabolic pathway? Rate-limiting enzyme
Which type of epithelial tissue would you find lining blood vessels? Simple squamous
Which epithelial tissue type would be most suitable for protecting against mechanical wear? Stratified epithelium
Where would you find goblet cells? In simple columnar epithelium
Which tissue type is considered rare in the human body? Stratified columnar epithelium
The presence of microvilli in epithelial cells serves what primary purpose? To increase surface area
Simple squamous epithelium is particularly well-suited for which function? Diffusion and filtration
