IAP Test 2 Review

What are the 4 different types of tissues, how can you tell them apart? What do these tissues do?

CELLS secrete and regulate EXTRACELLULAR MATERIALS AND FLUID combine to form TISSUES
with special functions.

Epithelial:

Covers exposed surfaces

Lines internal passageways and chambers

Produces glandular secretions ( GLANDULAR EPITHELIUM)

GLAND CELLS- Epithelial cells produce secretions

Classified by where and how secretions discharge

EXOCRINE: Secretions discharged onto surface of epithelium

ENDOCRINE: Secretions ( Hormones) released into the surrounding tissue fluid and blood

Found on all surfaces of the body exposed to the outside world, lining with outside organs and the inside
of blood vessels. Closely together, free surface, attached to underlying tissue by BASEMENT MEMBRANE,
AVASCULAR ( lacks blood cells), continual cell replacement/generation

Basement Membrane: Lies between epithelium and underlying connective tissue

Connective:

Fills internal spaces

Provides structural support

Stores energy

Comprised of dispersed cells with no intracellular contact, connective tissue is a fiberous
tissue that supports and binds other tissues in the body



Muscle:

Contract to produce active movement

Composed of cells that can contract and relax, muscle tissue in the body



Nervous:

Propagates electrical impulses

Carries information

,Made up of neurons and glial cells, nervous tissue is responsible for transmitting and processing
information in the body.

All of these combine to form ORGANS with multiple functions. Interact in ORGAN SYSTEMS



What’s the difference between simple and stratified?

Simple:

Single layer of cells covering basement membrane

Fragile

Lines internal compartments and passageways

Common where secretion, absorption, and transport take place

Examples: air sacs in the lungs, kidney tubules, small intestinal mucus membrane, inner lining of blood
vessels

Stratified:

Multiply layers of cells

Provides greater protection

Found in areas exposed to mechanical or chemical stress

Example: Skin, vaginal lining, upper esophagus lining




Simple and stratified Structure, function and location

Squamous

Shape:

Side view: Thin and flat

Top view: fried eggs laid side by side

, Functions:

Simple: For transport, diffusion mainly, reduces friction, controls vessels
permeability, performs absorption and secretion

Example: Air sacs of lungs, some kidney tubules

Stratified: provides physical protection against abrasion, pathogens and chemical
attack

Example: Skin Vaginal lining

Cuboidal

Shape:

Side view: Square with large round nucleus in center

Top view: Hexagonal boxes

Function:

Simple: For transport, Limited protection, secretion and absorption

Example: Most kidney tubules, thyroid gland

Stratified: Protection. Secretion, moves mucus with cillia

Example: sweat ducts and mammary glands

Columnar

Shape:

Side view: Rectangular with nuclei near base

Top view: Hexagonal boxes

Function:

Simple: Common in digestive lining

Example: Stomach, small and large intestine

Stratified: Relatively rare, only superficial cells are columnar

Example: Inner layer of pharynx, epiglottis, anus, urethra

What is pseudostratified?

Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium

Is a classified as Stratified Epithelia

All cells contact basement membrane
