1.
Cilia: Function: move mucus or water and move ovum along in reproductive tracts. Location: respiratory tracts, pharyngeal slits and digestive tract of Amphioxus
2.
Cuboidal & Columnar & Pseudostratified: Function: Their greater size houses organelles for molecular transport. Location: kidney and uterine tubes tubules, stomach to the anus, respiratory tubes. They also line many glands
3.
Ectoderm: (outside layer) forms epidermis of the skin, nervous system, major sense organs
4.
Endochondral: Bones formed from a cartilage precursor.
5.
Endoderm: ( inner layer) inner lining of lung, urinary bladder, thyroid, thymus and parathyroid glands, the liver and pancreases, the digestive tube lining and the auditory tube
6.
Goblet cells: Function: Secretes mucus; uses slime for frictional reduction when swimming, to resist desiccation on land, and for antibacterial defense. Location: upper respiratory track, anus, and endostyle of early chordates.
7.
Membranous Bones: formed directly on a collagen mat
8.
Mesoderm: forms cartilages bones, tendons, ligamens, muscles, heart, blood vessels, lining of the coelomic cavities
9.
Microvilli: Function: Abosrbs nutrients (digestive tract), transport ions (kidney) anchor mucus and acts as stiff knobs to resist abrasion. Location: Small intestine, kidney, mucus secreting epithelia
10.
Stratified Squamous Epithelium: Function: Non-keratinized types have high wear potential augmented by mucus. Keratinized types is wear and desiccation resistant. −Location: Non- keratinized are found in mouths, nostrils, esophagus, distal anus, and the vagina. Keratinized types are found in surface skin and nails.
11.
Three primary germ layers: Ectoderm, Endoderm, Mesoderm
12.
Transitional epithelium: Function: Stretches readily and permits distension of urinary organ by contained urin. Location: Lines the ureters, bladder and part of the urethra
