1
New cards

involuntary smooth muscles

The muscles in the wall of the uterus and urinary bladder are

2
New cards

Elastic fibers are also known as

yellow fibers

3
New cards

Simple cuboidal epithelium

The type of epithelium found on the surface of the ovaries and lining the ducts of glands

4
New cards

Stratified cuboidal epithelium

occurs in two layers found primarily along large excretory ducts like sweat glands, mammary glands, and salivary glands

5
New cards

Simple squamous epithelium

lining of blood vessels, alveoli of the lungs, and body cavities where rapid diffusion is required, such as the lining of the heart chambers and the inner surface of the peritoneal cavity; essentially anywhere where thin, flat cells are needed for efficient exchange of substances across a membrane

6
New cards

Synovial membrane

no epithelium

7
New cards

second-intention wound healing

wound edges cannot be approximated, meaning they cannot be brought together, and the wound heals from the base upwards by filling in with granulation tissue, resulting in a larger scar compared to primary intention healing

8
New cards

Collagen fibers

composed of triple helices of protein fibers

9
New cards

Brown adipose tissue

Because it is a site of heat production, this type of connective tissue is found in animals that hibernate during the cold winter months.

10
New cards

Elastic cartilage

The pinna of the ears of animals. provides the flexible structure and shape to the visible part of the ear

11
New cards

Gristle

common name for cartilage

12
New cards

Chondroblast

will produce the fibers and ground substance for cartilage

13
New cards

Tendons

made up of elastin collagen and dense fibrous connective tissue

14
New cards

Vasodilation

Heparin and histamine from mast cells function to directly cause

15
New cards

Hyaluronic acid

common ground substance in connective tissue

16
New cards

The brush border of epithelial cells

primarily in the small intestine and the proximal convoluted tubules of the kidney. apical surface, which is the free surface of the cell facing the lumen or the external environment. luminal surface of the enterocyte

17
New cards

Compound gland

If a gland has a branched duct that carries secretions to the deposition site

18
New cards

Compact bone

has Osteocytes, collagen fibers, and calcium phosphate as ground substance.

19
New cards

Perichondrium

has many tiny blood vessels that supply nutrients to cartilage.

20
New cards

Cancellous bone

has the most intracellular material

21
New cards

Striated voluntary muscle

major muscles in all four legs of a horse

22
New cards

Apocrine

If a gland loses the apex of a secretory cell during the secretory process

23
New cards

Striated involuntary muscle

majority of heart muscle. has muscle cells that connect to one another at junctions called intercalated disks

24
New cards

Perikaryon

where the nucleus of a nerve cell is found

25
New cards

osteoblast

fixed cell

26
New cards

Nonstriated involuntary muscle

responsible for constricting the walls of blood vessels

27
New cards

keratinized stratified squamous epithelium

located in the skin

28
New cards

Stratified squamous epithelium

cuboidal cells are visible near the basement membrane. But the luminal surface has squamous cells. Located in areas with mechanical and chemical stresses such as the lining of the mouth, esophagus, vagina, and rectum. Older cells are worn off but replaced by younger cells underneath. The cuboidal cells turn into squamous cells after loosing their cytoplasm and nuclei eventually turning into paper like sheets.

29
New cards

Mesothelium

lines the pleural (chest), pericardial (around the heart) and peritoneal (abdominal) cavities

30
New cards

Visceral smooth muscle

the walls of hollow organs, including the stomach, intestines, uterus, and bladder. It's also present in blood vessels, the respiratory tract, and the eyes.
