6 Multiple Choice Questions

- Single layer of flattened cells, disk shapedcentral nuclei, sparse cytoplasm
-Located in air sacs of lungs, kidney glomeruli, lining of heart, blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, seosal membrans
-Allows passage of material by diffusion and filtration where protection is not important, secretes lubricating substances in erosal membrane- Simple Squamous
Simple Cuboial
Simple olumnar (with Goblett Cells)
Pseudostratified
Keratinized Stratified Squamous
Nonkeratinied stratified squamous
Transition - Human plantar skin
Know - (epidermis, stratum asal, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, stratumcorneum, dermis, papillary layer, reticular layer 
-Be able to identify chondrocyte, perichondrium
-Cartilages are normally set apartfrom other tissues by a perichondrium (but may not be present).
-Cells: chondroblasts/ chondrocytes within cavities called lacumae (little lakes)
-Forms the embryonic skeleton, covers the ends of long bones in joint cavities; forms the cartilages f the ribs (costal), nose, trachea, and larynx
- Supports and reinforces, coshions; resists compressive stress
-Modified simple columnar epithelium; cells and nuclei appear at different heights; may contain goblet cells or possess cilia
-Ciliated type: found in the trachea and upper respiratory tract (this is often referred to as "respiratory epithelium")
- Nonciliated type: in the ducts of large glands and parts of the male urethra
-Function for scretion, particularly mucus; propulsion of mucus (in ciliated type)
-Network of reticular fibers (collagen III) in a typical loose ground substance
-Reticular cells (fibroblasts that secrete reticular fibers) predominate.
-Located in the liver, lymph nodes, bone, and spleeen
-Fibes fom a soft, internal skeleton that supports other cell types
6 True/False Questions
-
Connective Tissues → -Areolar (Fibroblasts, Collagen fiber, elatic fiber)
-Adipose (adipocytes) Fatcells, insulates, storage, cushions
-Reticular (has reticular fipers going throughout)
-Dense Regular CT
-Hyaline Cartilage (chondrocyte, perichondrium)
Elastic cartilage (chondrocyte, perichondrium, elastic fibers)
-Fibrocartilage (chondrocyte, collagen fibers)
-Compact Bone (Haversian system (osteon), central canal, lacunae, canaliculi,volkman's canal
-Spongy Bone
-Blood (erythrocytes, leukocytes) -
Simple columnar Epithelium →

Single layer of cubelike cells with large, spherical, central nuclei; may exhibit microvilli
-Kidney tubules, small ducts and secretory portions of glands, thyroid, overy surface
-Function: Secretion, absorption -
Adipose Connective Tissue →

-Matrix is similar to areolar CT, but very sparse
-Cells: closely packed adipocytes with nuclei displaced to the periphery by a large lipid droplet
-Located under the skin, around the kidneys and eyes, in bones, witin the abdomen, and in breasts
Provides reserve food fuel (triglycerides: insulates organs; and supports and potects organs. -
Transitional Epithelium →

Single layer of cubelike cells with large, spherical, central nuclei; may exhibit microvilli
-Kidney tubules, small ducts and secretory portions of glands, thyroid, overy surface
-Function: Secretion, absorption -
Keratinized/nonkeratinized stratified squamou epithelium →

-Keratinized : found in epidermis
-Nonkeratinized: found in the linings ofthe mouth, esophagus, and vagina
- Several cell layers; basal cells are columnar/cuboidal (mitotically active); may be keratinized or nonkeratinized -
Nervous Tissue → Neuron
Neuroglia
