cytokinesis
New cards
59
the term used to describe the study of tissues
histology
New cards
60
the four types of tissue are what?
muscle, epithelial, connective, and nervous
New cards
61
What are the three types of epithelial tissues that can be both simple or statified?
squamous, cubodial, and columnar
New cards
62
several layers of cells and basal layers are either cuboidal or columnar and surface cells are flat. these cells prevent water loss and penetration of diseased organisms
stratified squamous
New cards
63
Where are stratified squamous cells found?
the esophagus, mouth, female reproductive organs, and the skin
New cards
64
has limited distribution in the body, several cell layers, basal (bottom) cells are usually cuboidal and superficial (top) cells are elongated and columnar. these cells are used for protection
stratified columnar
New cards
65
stratified columnar cells are located where?
the pharynx and male urethra
New cards
66
single layer of cube-like cells and are used for secretion and absorption
simple cuboidal
New cards
67
simple cubodial cells are found where?
kidney tubicles
New cards
68
single layer of tall cells where the nuclei can look round or oval-like. used for secretion and absorption and contains goblet cells to secrete mucus.
simple columnar
New cards
69
simple columnar cells are found where?
lining of stomach, intestines, and part of the respiratory tract
New cards
70
looks like both stratified squamous and stratified cubodial and is able to stretch when needed
transitional
New cards
71
where are transitional cells located?
bladder
New cards
72
single layer of flat cells that are used for diffusion, filtration, and secretion of lubricating substances
simple squamous
New cards
73
simple squamous cells are found where?
the lining of the cavities of the body, such as pericardial, pleural, and peritoneal
New cards
74
Single layer of cells with differing heights, not all cells will reach the free surface. Nuclei are uneven which gives it a layered appearance. These are used for secretion
pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium
New cards
75
pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium cells are found where?
sperm carrying ducts, the trachea, and the mouth
New cards
76
flat cells
squamous
New cards
77
cube-like cells
cuboidal
New cards
78
long cells
columnar
New cards
79
binds structures together, forms a framework and support for organs and the body, stores fat, transports substances, and protects against diseases
connective tissue
New cards
80
Loose arrangement of collagen and elastic fibers, scattered cell types & abundant ground substance
areolar
New cards
81
Large, empty-looking cells (adipocytes) with thin margins; nucleus pressed against cell membrane
adipose
New cards
82
reticular fibers in loose ground substance
reticular
New cards
83
Densely, packed, parallel collagen fibers; compressed fibroblast nuclei & scanty open space, Few blood vessels, injuries- slow to heal
