lab Cells & Tissues Homework B213L

his type of tissue is found in the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. It is made of interconnected cells called nerve cells, or neurons, that transmit both information and commands throughout the organism.

Nervous tissue

This tissue type has cells arranged in long, threadlike fibers, some of which can contract when an electrical impulse is applied. This type of tissue functions to produce movement of the body. 

muscle tissue

This tissue covers the surfaces of organs and forms the organism’s outer surface. Furthermore, this tissue is classified based on the shape and grouping of the cells that make up the tissue

epthelial tissue

This type of tissue fills spaces, stores fat, transports materials, and binds, supports, and protects body parts.

connective tissue

A single layer of flattened epithelial cells

Simple Squamous Epithelium

Multiple layers of flattened epithelial cells stacked on top of each other

Stratified Squamous Epithelium

A single layer of tall and thin epithelial cells

Simple Columnar Epithelium

A single layer of long and thin epithelial cells that gives the appearance of being multiple layers because the nuclei of the cells are present at different levels

Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium,

A single layer of cube-like epithelial cells

Simple Cuboidal Epithelium

Simple Squamous Epithelium

Allow materials to pass by diffusion and filtration in areas where protection is not important; secretes lubricating substances in serosae

Stratified Squamous Epithelium functions

Provide protection to underlying tissues

Simple Cuboidal Epithelium functions

Primarily functions in secretion and absorption.

Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium function

Secretion of mucus and movement of mucus by ciliary action

Transitional Epithelium function

Allow stretching of the urinary bladder, ureters, and urethra

Simple Columnar Epithelium function

Absorption and secretion of mucus (stomach and intestinal tract); Transportation of fluids or particles along a passageway (uterine tube, uterus, and bronchi)

Ureters, urinary bladder, urethra

made up of Transitional Epithelium

Kidney tubules, duct and secretory portions of small glands, ovary surface

made up of Simple Cuboidal Epithelium

Non-Keratinized: the lining of esophagus, mouth
Keratinized: forms epidermis

made up of Stratified Squamous Epithelium

Nonciliated: line digestive tract, gallbladder, and excretory ducts of some glands
Ciliated: small bronchi, uterine tubes, regions of the uterus

made up of Simple Columnar epithelium,

Kidney glomeruli; air sacs of lungs; lining of the heart, blood vessels, and lymphatic vessels

made up of Simple Squamous Epithelium

Non-ciliated: sperm ducts and ducts of large glands 
Ciliated: lining the trachea and most of the upper respiratory tract

made up of Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium

Pseudostratified columnar epithelium

Withstand tension (in many directions); provide structural strength

(function) Dense irregular connective tissue,

Form smooth surfaces on bones; provide flexibility and support

Hyaline cartilage connective tissue,

Maintains shape and structure while allowing great flexibility

Elastic cartilage connective tissue,

Form the framework or matrix of an organ

Loose reticular connective tissue

Provide reserve fuel, insulates, supports & protects organs.

Loose adpiose connective tissue

Tensile strength, absorb compressive shock, and is weight-bearing.

Fibrocartilage connective tissue,

Wrap and cushion organs, its macrophages phagocytize bacteria, inflammation, holds & conveys tissue fluid.

Loose areolar connective tissue,

Attaches muscle to bone (tendons), bone to bone (ligaments), withstands great tensile stress (in one direction).

Dense regular connective tissue

Forms most of the embryonic skeleton, ends of long bones, costal cartilage of ribs, the cartilage of nose, trachea, and larynx

location Hyaline cartilage connective tissue,

External ear (auricle), epiglottis.

location Elastic cartilage connective tissue,

Tendons, ligaments, aponeurosis.

location Dense regular connective tissue,

Lymphoid organs (bone marrow, lymph nodes, and spleen).

location Loose reticular connective tissue,

Under skin (hypodermis), around kidneys and eyeballs, within abdomen, in breasts

location Loose adipose connective tissue,

Fibrous capsules of organs and joints, the dermis of the skin, the submucosa of the digestive tract

location Dense irregular connective tissue,

Intervertebral discs, public symphysis, disc of knee joint (meniscus).

location Fibrocartilage connective tissue,

Under epithelia of body, package organs, surround capillaries.
