What are the types of primary tissue?
epithelial, connective, muscle, nervous
what is epithelial tissue (epithelium)
sheet of cells that covers body surfaces or cavities
main functions of epithelial tissue?
protection, absorption, filtration, excretion, secretion, and sensory reception
what is the apical surface of epithelial tissue?
upper free side that is exposed to surface or cavity
Most apical surfaces are ____, but some have ___
smooth; microvilli
What is the basal surface of epithelial tissue?
lower attached side, faces inward toward body
Many Epithelial tissues form….
continuous sheets
All epithelial sheets are supported by_____
connective tissue
What is the basement membrane of an epithelium made up of?
basal and reticular lamina
innervated
has nerve supply
avascular causes..
no direct blood supply
epithelial tissue is avascular meaning….
it has no blood vessels
How is epithelial tissue nourished?
by diffusion from underlying CT
Epithelia tissue is avascular, but they are innervated, meaning they are directly supplied by
nerve fibers
simple epithelia
a single thick layer of epithelium
what are two or more thick layers of epithelium called and what are they mainly involved in?
stratified epithelia; protection
stratified squamous epithelium looks
flattened and scale-like
cuboidal epithelium
box-like, cube
columnar epithelium
tall, column-like
what is simple epithelia involved in?
absorption, secretion, or filtration processes
where is simple squamous epithelium found
kidney, lungs
endothelium and mesothelium are examples of…
simple squamous epithelium

which epithelium tissue is this
simple squamous
main function of simple squamous epithelium
diffusion and filtration

which epithelium tissue is this?
simple squamous
What should you look for in simple squamous epithelium tissue?
strings

what is this
simple cuboidal epithelium
What should you look for in simple cuboidal epithelium tissue?
squished donuts
where is simple columnar epithelium found in?
digestive tract, gallbladder, glands, bronchi
function of simple columnar epithelium
absorption and secretion of mucus, enzymes, etc.
What should you look for in simple columnar epithelium tissue?
free space from nucleus to edge, neat rows

what is this
simple columnar
function of pseudostratified columnar epithelium
secretion and movement of mucus
where can pseudostratified columnar epithelium be found?

what is this
pseudostratified columnar epithelium
What should you look for in pseudostratified columnar epithelium tissue?
goblet cell, cilia

the yellow line is pointing to what strucutre?
goblet cell
stratified epithelial tissue
2 or more layers of cells
what is the major role of stratified epithelial tissue?
protection
what is keratinized stratified squamous epithelium?
type of tissue found in epidermis of the skin
what is nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium?
the type of tissue found in moist linings

what is this?
stratified squamous epithelium
What should you look for in stratified squamous epithelium tissue?
scale like, flat nuclei
function of stratified squamous epithelium
protection
location of stratified cuboidal epithelium
sweat and mammary glands

what is this
stratified cuboidal epithelium
what are the two rare types of epithelium
stratified columnar and stratified cuboidal
How do you name stratified epithelium?
named according to the shape in apical layer
where do you find mesothelium?
serous membranes in the ventral body cavity
where do you find endothelium?
lining of lymphatic vessels, blood vessels, and heart
function of cilia
move mucus
function of microvilli
increases surface area for absorption
location of transitional epithelium
lining of urinary organs
is transitional epithelium simple or stratified?
stratified
the basal layer cells of transitional epithelium are…..
cuboidal or columnar
What is special about transitional epithelium?
What does it allow?
it can change shape when stretched which allows for increased flow of urine and more storage in bladder

what is this?
transitional epithelium
What should you look for in transitional epithelium tissue?
rounded edges
gland
One or more cells that makes and secretes secretion
endocrine gland
internally secretes hormones
exocrine
externally secrete sweat into ducts
how are glands classified?
by their number of cells(multi/uni) and site of secretion
examples of exocrine glands
mucous, sweat, oil, salivary glands
mucous cells and goblet cells are examples of what kind of glands?
unicellular exocrine glands
Multicellular exocrine glands are composed of a ___ and a ______________
duct; secretory unit
what does the supportive connective tissue do for the gland
supplies blood and nerve fibers
what supplies blood and nerve fibers to gland
supportive CT
Multicellular exocrine glands are classified by what?
mode of secretion and structure (which includes duct and shape of secretory)
endocrine glands do not have
ducts
the 2 categories under duct structure are
simple and compound
A multicellular exocrine gland with an unbranched duct is called a…
simple gland
A multicellular exocrine gland with a branched duct is called a…
compound gland
what are the three categories under shape of the secretory unit in a multicellular gland?
