proper epithelial tissue
body coverings
glandular epithelial tissue
glands
epithelial tissue
protects, absorbs, filters, secreates
cells fit close together
has several layers
avascular (not much blood)
simple
one layer
stratified
multiple layers
squamous
flattened
cuboidal
cube-shaped
columnar
column-like
simple squamous
usually forms membranes, lines body cavities, lunds and capillaries
allows for diffusion among the membrane
simple cuboidal
common in glands and their ducts
forms walls of kidney tubes
covers ovaries
pseudostratified
primarily located in the respiratory tract, lining the nasal passages, trachea, and bronchi
absorbs and secretes
stratified squamous
found as protective covering where friction is common
located at skin, mouth, and esophagus
stratified cuboidal
to protect functional gland tissue and to enable the excretion of gland products
located at sweat and salivary glands
stratified columnar
protection from physical damage and microbial entry, and secretion, particularly mucus to keep surfaces moist.
locations like the conjunctiva of the eye, parts of the male urethra, the pharynx, and the anus, and also in the ducts of exocrine glands
endocrine
ductless and secretes hormones
exocrine
employs through ducts to epithelial surface
includes sweat and oil glands
Muscle Tissue
produces movement
Skeletal muscle
voluntary
cells are striated with several nuclei
maintains body posture, generating heat to regulate body temperature, stabilizing joints, and protecting internal organs
located in skeleton
Cardiac Muscle
pumps blood involuntary
cells are striated with INFLATED DICS
Smooth Muscle
involuntary
organ must be irritated to work
surrounds hollow organs
1 nucleus per cell
Fibrosis
repair by dense fibrous connective tissue
muscle
which tissue does NOT regenerate easily?
adipose
insulates, protects and provides fuel
under skin
Hyaline
most common
provides smooth, low-friction surfaces and structural support in joints, airways, and other areas of the body
located at ends of all bones
Fibrocartilage
highly compressive
discs between vertebrae
dense connective
provides strength and support
areolar
cushions protects
beneath the skin
reticular
forms stroma of lymphoid organs
located in lymph nodes, spleen, bone marrow
neoplasia
abnormal cell growth
hyperplasia
cell growth caused by irritant
sacropenia
progressive loss in muscle and strength
