involuntary smooth muscles
The muscles in the wall of the uterus and urinary bladder are
Elastic fibers are also known as
yellow fibers
Simple cuboidal epithelium
The type of epithelium found on the surface of the ovaries and lining the ducts of glands
Stratified cuboidal epithelium
occurs in two layers found primarily along large excretory ducts like sweat glands, mammary glands, and salivary glands
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
Synovial membrane
no epithelium
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
Collagen fibers
composed of triple helices of protein fibers
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.
Elastic cartilage
The pinna of the ears of animals. provides the flexible structure and shape to the visible part of the ear
Gristle
common name for cartilage
Chondroblast
will produce the fibers and ground substance for cartilage
Tendons
made up of elastin collagen and dense fibrous connective tissue
Vasodilation
Heparin and histamine from mast cells function to directly cause
Hyaluronic acid
common ground substance in connective tissue
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
Compound gland
If a gland has a branched duct that carries secretions to the deposition site
Compact bone
has Osteocytes, collagen fibers, and calcium phosphate as ground substance.
Perichondrium
has many tiny blood vessels that supply nutrients to cartilage.
Cancellous bone
has the most intracellular material
Striated voluntary muscle
major muscles in all four legs of a horse
Apocrine
If a gland loses the apex of a secretory cell during the secretory process
Striated involuntary muscle
majority of heart muscle. has muscle cells that connect to one another at junctions called intercalated disks
Perikaryon
where the nucleus of a nerve cell is found
osteoblast
fixed cell
Nonstriated involuntary muscle
responsible for constricting the walls of blood vessels
keratinized stratified squamous epithelium
located in the skin
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.
Mesothelium
lines the pleural (chest), pericardial (around the heart) and peritoneal (abdominal) cavities
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.
