|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Simple Epithelial Tissue | Single layer of cells attached to a basement membrane - covering or lining for organs and vessels
🗑
|
||||
| Compound Epithelial Tissue | Many layers of cells and no basement membrane - External protection, eg. fingernails and Internal elasticity eg. lining of the mouth
🗑
|
||||
| Goblet cells | Mucus secreting cells
🗑
|
||||
| Structure of Squamous Simple Epithelium | Single layer of flattened cells attached to a basement membrane
🗑
|
||||
| Structure of Cuboidal Simple Epithelium | single layer of cube-shaped cells attached to a basement membrane
🗑
|
||||
| Function of Squamous Simple Epithelium | forms thin, often permeable lining of the heart, blood and lymph vessels, and alveoli of the lungs - diffusion and filtration
🗑
|
||||
| Function of Cuboidal Simple Epithelium | forms lining of kidney tubules as well as some glands; can secrete substances or absorb them
🗑
|
||||
| Structure of Columnar | single layer of rectangular cells attached to a basement membrane
🗑
|
||||
| Function of Columnar | lining in active parts such as stomach, intestines, urethra - secrete and/or absorb mucus
🗑
|
||||
| Structure of Ciliated | single layer of mostly columnar cells with hair-like projections, or cilia, stick out from the cell membrane
🗑
|
||||
| Function of Ciliated | work in waves, moving together to remove mucus, foreign matter and debris.Keeps passageways and linings clear - Respiratory System
🗑
|
||||
| Structure Stratified Keratinised Compound Epithelium | dry surface; forms a dead layer - hair skin nails - surface layer dried out protein called keratin forms a waterproof layer.
🗑
|
||||
| Structure Stratified Non-Keratinised Compound Epithelium | wet surface; eg. inside mouth, oesophagus, conjunctiva(mucous membrane) of the eye
🗑
|
||||
| Function Keratinised | prevents deeper layers from drying out and protects them
🗑
|
||||
| Function Non-Keratinised | provides lubrication
🗑
|
||||
| Structure Transitional Compound Epithelium | surface cells are not flattened and thus can change shape when necessary- cube shaped surface cells and pear shaped deeper cells
🗑
|
||||
| Function Transitional | found in organs that need waterproof and expandable lining eg bladder, ureters
🗑
|
||||
| Structure of Nervous Tissue | bundles of fibres - nerve cells and neuroglia
🗑
|
||||
| Function of Nervous Tissue | capable of transmitting signals to and from the brain; protective
🗑
|
||||
| Structure of Skeletal Muscular Tissue | Striated and voluntary
🗑
|
||||
| Function of Skeletal Muscular Tissue | Help support and move the body
🗑
|
||||
| Structure of Smooth Muscular Tissue | Non-striated and involuntary
🗑
|
||||
| Function of Smooth Muscular Tissue | carry out involuntary functions eg. peristalsis
🗑
|
||||
| Structure of Cardiac Muscular Tissue | Striated and involuntary
🗑
|
||||
| Three types of Muscular Tissue | Skeletal, Smooth and Cardiac
🗑
|
||||
| Function of Cardiac Muscular Tissue | muscle of the heart to pump blood
🗑
|
||||
| Areolar Connective Tissue | Most general connective tissue in the body - found all over the body connecting and supporting other tissues
🗑
|
||||
| Adipose Connective Tissue | fatty tissue-fat cells,fat globules-under the skin, around kidneys and back of eyes-protective and insulating-retains body heat, also a food reserve
🗑
|
||||
| Lymphoid Connective Tissue | semi-solid white fibres-majority lymphocytes-engulfs bacteria and destroys it-lymph nodes, spleen, thymus, tonsils, large intestine, appendix and glands of small intestine
🗑
|
||||
| Yellow Elastic Connective Tissue | elastic fibres capable of considerable extension and recoil-lung tissue, bronchi, trachea, arteries, stomach, bladder and any other organs needing stretch and recoil.
🗑
|
||||
| White Fibrous Connective Tissue | strong connective NOT elastic-forms ligaments, periosteum of bone and outer protection of organs-kidneys, dura of brain, tendons and muscle fascia.
🗑
|
||||
| Bone | hardest structure of body-compact and cancellous-compact dense for strength,cancellous for structure bearing and cellular development-support and protect body and produce cells in bone marrow
🗑
|
||||
| Blood | fluid connective tissue - erythrocytes, leukocytes and thrombocytes - transports food and oxygen to all the cells of the body-remove waste, fight infection and clot blood.
🗑
|
||||
| Hyaline Cartilage | bluish-white, smooth - particularly resilient - larynx, bronchi, trachea, articular surfaces of joints.
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
