Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs)
-Polysaccharides in connective tissue: haluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, desmatan sulfate, keratan sulfate -completely composed of carbohydrates
Adherent Glycoproteins
-Proteins with carbohydrates attached Bond CT cells and fibers to ground substance Includes: fibronectin, fibrillin, laminin
cutaneous membrane
-The skin; composed of epidermal and dermal layers -covers the body
Loose connective tissue
-Tissue that binds epithelia to underlying tissues and holds organs in place. Contains collagenous, elastic, and recticular fibers. -supports epithelium
Hyaline cartilage
-Translucent bluish white cartilage consisting of cells embedded in an apparently homogeneous matrix, present in joints and respiratory passages, and forming most of the fetal skeleton -cells residing in lacunae (small cavity in the substance of the bone containing an osteocyte)
Proteoglycans
-a glycoprotein consisting of a small core protein with many carbohydrate chains attached, found in the extracellular matrix of animal cells. -90% carbohydrates -Fibromodulin
Cardiac Muscle
-contracts without nervous innervation -connected by intercalated disks
serous membrane
-covers the heart -Covers the intestines -lines the cavity with abdominal organs
nervous tissue
-electronically excitable -can receive and transmit electrical signals -Protected by neuroglia
mucous membrane
-lines the intestines
Smooth Muscle
-mostly found in the viscera ( inside organs) -helps move contents through a hollow organ
Skeletal Muscle
-voluntary -Moves the skeleton -Multinucleated
Match the characteristic given to one of the types of muscles.
1. Cells or fibers appear striated (banded) -Both cardiac and skeletal muscle 2. Cells are large, long, and cylindrical, with many nuclei located at the periphery -Skeletal muscle 3. Pumps the blood -Cardiac muscle 4. Moves the body -Skeletal muscle 5. Cells are branched and connected to one another by intercalated discs- Cardiac muscle 6. Is under voluntary (conscious) control -Skeletal muscle 7. Controls the amount of light entering the eye -Smooth muscle 8. Is located in the heart -Cardiac muscle
Match each example given to one of the five general functions of epithelial tissues.
1. The outermost layer of the skin (the epidermis) protects the underlying structures from the environment. =Protecting underlying structures 2. The epithelium of the skin is a barrier to water and reduces water loss from the body.= Acting as barriers 3. The epithelium of the skin prevents the entry of many toxic molecules and microorganisms into the body. =Acting as barriers 4. Simple squamous epithelium allows carbon dioxide to be diffused from the blood into the lungs. =Permitting the passage of substances 5. Mucous glands and the enzyme-secreting portions of the pancreas secrete their products into ducts that subsequently deliver their products to other areas of the body. =Secreting substances 6. The plasma membranes of certain epithelial tissues contain carrier proteins that regulate the absorption of materials. =Absorbing substances 7. The epithelium of the oral cavity protects the underlying structures from food as it is being chewed. =Protecting underlying structures 8. The epithelial cells of the intestine absorb digested food molecules, vitamins, and ions. =Absorbing substances
Cuboidal cell
An cube like epithelial cell. Forms many of the secretory glands.
Epithelial tissue
Cells can be cube or column shaped.
Ligaments are very strong but resistant to stretch. Which protein fiber probably predominates?
Collagen
The visible part of the ear has the ability to stretch significantly, and then recoil back to its original position. Which protein fiber must be present?
Elastic
merocrine glands
Exocrine glands that secrete without losing cellular material
Collagen (lose connective tissue )
Fibers that are flexible but resist stretching
Reticular fibers (Lose connective tissue)
Fibers that branch to form a supporting network
elastic fibers
Fibers that can recoil to their original shape
NOT a function of simple columnar epithelium
