Chapter 4 Quiz
Epithelial cells always have a exposed to the outside or to an open space internally and a that attaches to the basement membrane.
free surface, basal surface
Areolar connective
-around body organs -binds skin to deeper organs
Dense irregular connective
-heart valves -dermis
Skeletal muscle
-muscles of facial expression -parallel fibers that are multinucleate and striated -holds the body upright, and enables breathing and speaking
Smooth muscle
-propels food from esophagus to stomach -muscle of piloerector in the dermis, urinary bladder and intestines
Reticular connective
-red bone marrow -spleen
Dense regular connective
-tendons -ligaments
Nervous tissue
-transmits impulses that stimulate excitable cells -glial cells that support and protect but cannot generate action potentials
Elastic connective
-vocal cords -large artery walls
Adipose
-yellow bone marrow -subcutaneous layer
Functions as heat insulator beneath skin
Adipose
Binds skin to underlying organs
Areolar connective
Contains loose arrangement of elastic and collagen fibers
Areolar connective
Contains large amounts of fluid and transports wastes and gases
Bone (compact)
Cells in a fluid-gel matrix with parallel collagen fibers
Dense regular connective
Main tissue of tendons and ligaments
Dense regular connective
Forms framework of outer ear
Elastic cartilage
Occurs in some ligament attachments between vertebrae and larger artery walls
Elastic connective
Pads between vertebrae that are shock absorbers
Fibrocartilage
Forms the flexible part of the nasal septum and ends of long bones
Hyaline cartilage
Contains neurons and neuroglia
Nervous tissue
Coordinates, regulates, and integrates body functions
Nervous tissue
Commonly possesses cilia that move dust and mucus out of the respiratory airways
Pseudostratified columnar epithelium
Single row of elongated cells, but some cells don't read the free surface
Pseudostratified columnar epithelium
Which of the following are symptoms of inflammation?
Redness, heat, and pain
Forms supporting tissue in walls of thymus and spleen
Reticular connective
Forms lining of stomach and intestines
Simple columnar epithelium
Possesses microvilli in small intestine to increase surface area for better absorption
Simple columnar epithelium
Lines kidney tubules and ducts of salivary glands
Simple cuboidal epithelium
Forms walls of capillaries and air sacs of lungs
Simple squamous epithelium
Single layer of flattened cells
Simple squamous epithelium
Muscle that lacks striations
Smooth muscle
Provides lining of urethra of males and parts of pharynx
Stratified columnar epithelium
Two or three layers of cube-shaped cells
Stratified cuboidal epithelium
Forms lining of oral cavity, anal cavity, and vagina
Stratified squamous epithelium
Provides abrasion protection of skin epidermis and oral cavity
Stratified squamous epithelium
Consists of several layers of cube-shaped, elongated, and irregular cells, allowing an expandable lining
Transitional epithelium
Forms inner lining of urinary bladder and ureters
Transitional epithelium
The underside of this tissue layer contains an acellular layer of adhesives and with which the epithelial cells anchor to an underlying connective tissue.
basement membrane, collagen
Transports nutrients and defends against disease
blood
The cells of epithelial tissue readily divide but lack what?
blood vessels
Compact bone
bone shafts
Contains intercalated discs
cardiac muscle
Muscle that composes heart
cardiac muscle
Striated and involuntary
cardiac muscle
The three types of protein fibers found in connective tissue are
collagen, elastin, and reticular fibers.
A general characteristic of connective tissue is that it
consists of cells with much extracellular material (matrix) between them.
Main tissue of dermis
dense irregular connective
Cardiac muscle
enables the heart to pump blood
Spongy bone
ends of long bones
The four primary tissue types are
epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous.
A thick, sticky secretion produced by goblet cells is called __________.
mucus
Which type of tissue is contractile?
muscle tissue
Conducts impulses along cellular processes
nervous tissue
What are considered functions of epithelial tissues?
secretion, absorption, filtration, protection
The type of membrane that protects internal organs from friction is a __________ membrane.
serous
Epithelial tissues are tightly packed single ( ) to multiple ( ) layers of cells that provide protective barriers.
simple, stratified
Muscle attached to bones
skeletal muscle
Muscle under conscious control
skeletal muscle
Striated and voluntary
skeletal muscle
Moves food through the digestive tract
smooth muscle
Muscle of blood vessels and iris
smooth muscle
Many shapes of the cells, like (flat), (square), and (elongated), exist that are used to name and identify the variations.
squamous, cuboidal, and columnar
An area of the body that experiences friction and wear and tear would likely contain ___________ epithelial tissue.
stratified squamous
The various types of epithelium are classified by
the shape of cells and number of cell layers.
