Chapter 4- Tissue
One layer of cells that are taller than they are wide where almost all cells touch the basement membrane and extend to the free surface
Simple columnar
Ducts of endocrine glands
Simple cuboidal
One layer of cells that are as wide as they are tall that rest on a basement membrane
Simple cuboidal
Lining of alveoli
Simple squamos
One layer of flat, or scalelike cells that rest on a basement membrane
Simple squamous
Hold cells together and form a permeability barrier
Tight junctions
Supporting connective tissue,
cartilage/ bone
Epithelial tissue can be
classified according to cell shape and number of layers.
Fibers:
collagen, reticular, elastic, responsible for the flexibility of bone, and resists tensile forces
outer portion of all bones
compact bone
Loose and dense connective tissue
connective tissue proper
Pseudostratified epithelia appear to have more than one cell layer because of the arrangements of the cells
nuclei
Special type of simple epithelium where it appears to be stratified but is not
Pseudostratified columnar
epithelial basement membrane sits on this
areolar connective tissue
Connective tissue proper:
areolar, adipose, reticular, dense regular, dense irregular, dense elastic
Lining of uterine tubes
Ciliated simple columnar
Skeletal muscle
attached to bone, moves the body, long multinucleated fibers
The basal surface of most epithelial tissues is attached to a
basement membrane, a specialized type of extracellular material secreted by epithelial and connective tissue cells.
Fluid connective tissue:
blood
transports O, CO2, and other substances
blood
Fluid connective tissue
blood/hemopoietic tissue
produces new blood cells and stores lipids
bone marrow
Epitheial tissue, or
epithelium covers and protects surfaces, both outside and inside the body.
The body surfaces include the
exterior surface and the lining of digestive and respiratory tracts and many body cavities.
Epithelial tissue consists almost entirely of cells, with very little
extracellular matrixbetween them.
invertebrate disks, pubic symphysis
fibrocartilage
Blood
fluid connective tissue
Areolar Tissue
forms the basement of epithelia, found in the tissues that hold tissue together, forms the serous membrane of the lungs
Elastic cartilage
forms the pinna of the ear, allows structures to stretch and return to original space
Fibrocartilage
found in the intervertebral discs, absorbs compressive forces in the spine
Epithelial tissue covers body surfaces and forms
glands that are derived developmentally from body surfaces.
Ground substance:
glycosaminoglycans, chondroitin, hydroxypatite, responsible for the stiffness of catilage, protects chondrocytes
allows the growth of long bones
hyaline cartilage
Supporting connective tissue:
hyaline cartilage, elastic cartilage, fibrocartilage, compact bone
Hyaline cartilage
lines the surfaces of movable joints, provides a low-friction surface, holds open passages so we can breathe
Stable cells
liver and pancreatic cells, do not divide after their growth stops, but can divide in response to injury
precursor to adult connective tissues
mensenchyme
The basement membrane helps attach the epithelial cells to underlying tissues, and it plays an important role in supporting and guiding cell
migration during tissue repair.
Epithelial cells retain the ability to undergo
mitosis and therefore are able to replace damaged cells with new epithelial cells.
Permanent cells
most neurons and cardiac myocytes, very limited ability to replicate and if killed they are usually replaced by other cells types
umbilical cord of the newborn
mucous connective tissue
Adipose Tissue
stores energy, found immediately deep to the skin
cartilage and bone
supporting connective tissue
Columnar cells are tall and
thin
Smooth muscle
uniculeated cells have tapered ends, moves food through digestive tract, hollow organs and blood vessels
Cardiac muscle
uninucleated striated branched cells, pumps blood
Healing the skin wound
1. a clot forms 2. a scab forms on the surface of the skin 3. fibroblasts form granulation tissue 4. connective tissue replaces granulation tissue
Cut process
1. tissue damage occurs and bacteria are introduced 2. chemical mediators of inflammation are released or activated in injured tissues 3. chemical mediators cause capillaries to dilate and the skin to become red 4. fluid leaves the capillaries, producing swelling 5. white blood cells leave the dilated blood vessels and move the site of infection 6. white blood cells begin to phagocytize bacteria and debris
Move materials across the free structure of cell
Cilia
Keratinized squamos epithelium and an underlying layer of connective tissue
Cutaneous membrane
Disk-shaped structures with especially adhesive glycoproteins
Desmosomes
Allow adjacent cells to communicate with each other
Gap junction
The source of all other connective tissues
Mescenchyme
Nonmotile and increase surface area of the cell
Microvilli
Located only in the umbilical cord
Mucous connective tissue
Composed of an epithelia and an underlying lamina propria; lines cavities that open to the outside
Mucous membrane
Lining of most of the digestive tract
Nonciliated simple columnar
Composed of mesothelium and underlying layer of connective tissue, lines cavities that do not open to the outside
Serous membrane
Elongated microvilli found in sensory structures
Stereocillia
Many layers of cells where most cell are as wide as they are tall
Stratified cuboidal
Many layers of cells near the basement membrane are cubed shaped, but at the free surface are flat
Stratified squamos
Composed of either fibrous, adipose, or areolar tissue; lines cavities that surround synovial joints
Synovial membrane
energy storage
adipose
tensile strength capable of withstanding stretch in all directions
dense irregular collagenous connective tissue
capable of strength with stretching and recoil in several directions
dense irregular elastic connective tissue
tendons and ligaments
dense regular collagenous connective tissue
vocal folds and ligaments b/t vertebrae
dense regular elastic connective tissue
Connective tissue proper
dense/loose
Blood vessels in the underlying connective tissue do not penetrate the basement membrane; thus all gases and nutrients carried in the blood must reach the epithelium by
diffusion
Labile cells
divide throughout life, adult stem cells
external ear, epiglottis, and auditory tubes
elastic cartilage
Most epithelial tissues have one free,
or apical surface not attached to other cells.
Reticular Connective Tissue:
provides supportive framework for the spleen, found in bone marrow
provides superstructure for lymphatic tissue
reticular tissue
Layers that are one cell thick are called
simple and those that are more than one cell thick are called stratified.
inside skull bones, vertebrae, and sternum
spongy bone
Thin, flat, scaly cells are described as
squamous
Cuboidal cells appear either rounded,
square or even somewhat pie-sliced in shape.
