monocyte / agranular
what kind of leukocyte is this? is it granular or agranular?
neutrophil / granular
what kind of leukocyte is this? is it granular or agranular?
eosinophil / granular
what kind of leukocyte is this? is it granular or agranular?
basophil / granular
what kind of leukocyte is this? is it granular or agranular?
blood platelets / thrombocytes
what kind of blood cell is this?
skeletal striated muscle
what kind of muscle is this?
neuromuscular junction / motor end plate
what is this?
cardiac muscle
what kind of muscle is this?
smooth muscle
what kind of muscle is this?
tunica intima
includes endothelium, basal lamina and in arteries an internal elastic membrane, indicated by I
tunica media
includes smooth muscle cells and an external elastic membrane. The smooth muscle layer is important for blood flow control. indicated by M
tunica adventitia
a connective tissue layer. Indicated by A
continuous capillary
what type of capillary is this? found in CNS, muscles, and lungs. thick cytoplasm and pinocytosis
fenestrated capillary
what type of capillary is this? found in endocrine glands, interstitial mucosa and kidney. pores formed by pinocytic vesicles
sinusoids / discontinuous capillary
what type of capillary is this? found in liver, spleen, and bone marrow. irregular in form, porous basal lamina and endothelial cells, allowing passage of plasma proteins and cell processes
arteriole / small artery
what type of artery is this? 1-2 layers of smooth muscle, thin tunica adventitia, direct blood flow
muscular / medium artery
why type of artery is this? elastic lamellae, 40 layers of smooth muscle, distributes blood and maintains pressure
elastic / large artery
what type of artery is this? elastic tunica media with 40-60 elastic lamellae and smooth muscle, absorb pulse and maintain even pressure
postcapillary venules
have pericytes but not smooth muscle
muscular venule / small vein
what kind of veins are these (A and D)? have tunica media with smooth muscle.
medium-sized veins
what kind of vein is this? tunica adventitia > tunica media. much more CT than muscle. valves are semi-lunar foldings of tunica intima
large veins
what type of vein is this? thick tunica adventitia, inner, longitudinal smooth muscle bundles, outer, coarse network of collagen and elastin fibers
endocardium
endothelium + subendothelial connective tissues. innermost
myocardium
cardiac muscle, thin in atria. middle layer
epicardium
connective and adipose tissue with blood vessels and nerves. middle layer
pericardium
double layered fluid filled cavity that protects the heart via cushioning and lubrication. outermost layer
lymphatic vessels
what is this? valves ensure one-way blood flow
lymphatic trunks
tunica media have more smooth muscle. Hint: left one is called "thoracic duct"
diffuse lymphatic tissue
what type of tissue is this? rich in lymphocytes
lymph nodules
what type of tissue is this? not encapsulated
lymph nodes
what type of tissue is this? encapsulated, mostly found in neck. produces antibodies, filters lymph fluid
thymus
what type of tissue is this? regresses after puberty, divided into lobules, Tcell education,
spleen
what type of tissue is this? screens blood, largest lymphatic organ
white pulp
splenic nodules, lots of lymphocytes
red pulp
splenic sinuses and cords, lots of loose cells
reticular fibres
what is this?
elastin fibres
what is this?
zonula occluens, zonula adherens, maculae adherens
name the 3 parts of the junctional complex (terminal bar)
fibroblasts
what is this? synthesizes fibrous components and ground substance
