Tissue

Cards (67)

    • It describe group of cells
    • Cells within this share a common embryonic origin
    Tissue
  • It is the microscopic study of tissues' appearance, organization, and function
    Histology
  • What are the types of tissues
    Epithelium, connective, muscle, and nervous
  • It is a type of tissue:
    • Covers the exterior surface
    • Lines internal cavities and passageways
    • Forms certain glands
    Epithelial
  • It is a type of tissue:
    • Functions to support, protect, and integration
    • Bind organs and cells
    Connective
  • It's a type of tissue:
    • It is excitable, it responds to stimulation and contract to provide movements
    Muscle
  • What are three kinds of muscle tissue
    Skeletal, smooth, cardiac
  • It's a type of tissue:
    • Also excitable, that allows electrochemical signals in the form of nerve impulse
    Nervous
  • After fertilization of the zygote it will give rise to rapid mitotic cycles, then, this will generate many cells and form the embryo
  • Gastrulation forms
    Germ layers
  • What is the name of the forst embryonic cells that have the ability to differentiate into any type of cells?
    Totipotent
  • This is a single cell formed by the fusion of egg and sperm
    Fertilized egg / zygote
  • It gives rise to connective tissue, bones, cartilage, blood, endothelium blood vessels, kidneys, synovial membrane lining cavities, and linings of gonads
    Mesoderm
  • It gives rise to epidermis, glands on the skin, cranial bones, nervous system, mouth between cheeks, and the anus.
    Ectoderm
  • It gives rise to lining of airways and digestive system except from mouth and distal parts of digestive (anus and rectum canal)
    Endoderm
  • It has thin sheets of cells that covers the exterior surface of the body
    • The organs internal passageway (will lead to exterior surface)
    • The lining of moveable joints
    Tissue Membrane
  • What are the two categories of Tissue Membranes?
    Epithelial and connective
    • It includes synovial membrane that encapsulates the organs and lines the freely moveable joints
    • It also has synovial fluid which is also responsible for allowing movements without much friction.

    Connective Tissue Membrane
    • It includes mucous, serous, and cutaneous
    • Composed of epithelium which is attached to layers of connective tissue
    Epithelial Tissue Membrane
  • It is also called as mucosa
    • Lines the body cavities and hollow passageways
    • Composed of excretory, digestive, respiratory, and reproductive tract
    Mucous membrane
  • It is mesothelium or mesodermally derived
    • It lines the coelomic cavities and protect organs within that.
    • It doesn't open to external environment.
    Serous Membrane
  • It also called "skin"
    • a stratified squamous epithelial membrane
    • Apical surface is exposed to external environment.
    • Covered with dead keratinized cells which helps to protect the body from dessication and pathogens
    Cutaneous Membrane
  • What are the structures and functions of epithelia
    1. Highly Cellular
    2. Polar (apical and basal)
    3. Completely Avascular
    4. Rapid replacement of dead cells
  • It remains within the connective tissue
    Fixed Cells
  • This cells are present part of immune system
    Macrophage and Mast Cells
  • What are the cell types under fixed cells?
    • Fibroblast - forms the extracellular matrix
    • Adipocytes - store lipids as droplets (white & brown)
    • Mesenchymal - multipotent adult stem-cell which has the ability to differentiate into any type of connective tissue.
  • Cells that are present part of immune system
    • Macrophage - when stimulated releases cytokines (chemical messenger)  
    • Mast cells - releases histamine, an inflammatory mediators.
  • Roaming free - move rapidly in ameboid movement
    Fixed - permanent residents of cells.
  • Single unit of droplet, less metabolically active
    White fats
  • Many droplets and more metabolically active
    Brown fats
  • What are the three main types of fibers that are secreted by Fibroblast?
    Collagen, elastin, and reticular fibers.
  • Collagen - long and straight fiber that provide tensile strength to resist stretching during various movements
  • Elastin - contains elastin, less protein, and glycoprotein. After stretching and compression it has the ability to return to its normal shape.
  • Reticular - same protein with collagen. It remained narrow and arrayed in branching network. It is also abundant in spleen and liver.
  • It absorbs shocks and connects tissue together. Also, allows diffusion of nutrients through adjacent and imbedded cells and tissues
    Loose connective tissue
  • Adipose Tissue - mostly fat storage with little extracellular material
  • White adipose tissue
    • Lipid storage, insulation, protect kidneys.
  • Brown Adipose Tissue
    • Also called "baby fats," common in infants
    • Thermogenic, uses metabolic heat to breakdown fats.
  • It's random and in web-like fashion. Contains all cell types and fibers. It surrounds blood and lymph and support organs in the abdominal cavity.
    Areolar Tissue
  • Reticular Tissue - It's in mesh-like fashion. Provide supportive framework for soft organs.
    • Produces the reticular fibers that forms the network
