2 Types of Membranes in our Bodies 1. Epithelial Membranes 1.Cutaneous 2.Mucous membranes (mucosa) 3.Serous (serosa) 2. Connective Tissue Membrane 1.Synovial Membrane

Slide 4.3 Epithelial membranes 1. Cutaneous Membrane ( 1. Cutaneous Membrane (AKA Skin) “dry” – exposed to air stratified squamous epithelium & dense fibrous connective tissue protection, maintains boundaries, synthesize Vit D, Insulates, nerve receptors Stratified squamous Dense fibrous

Slide 4.4 Epithelial Membranes 2. Mucous Membranes (mucosa) Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Epithelium & loose connective tissue underneath absorption or secretion open to the exterior lines all organs that open to the exterior (respiratory & digestive system) Figure 4.1b

Slide 4.5 Epithelial membranes 3. Serous Membranes (serosa) Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings simple squamous epithelium & loose connective tissue surrounds body organs (closed to exterior) Composed of 2 layers separated by fluid Figure 4.1c
7
Serous Membranes (Cont.) Come in paired layers (serous fluid between layers) – Parietal: layer lines the cavity – Serous Fluid (between layers) – clear fluid – Visceral: layer lines the organ (viscera) – Named by location (see next slide)

Slide 4.7 Connective Tissue Membrane Synovial Membrane Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Dense Fibrous connective tissue lines capsules surrounding joints Lubricates joint Bursae- sacs under ligaments - cushion Figure 4.2 bursae
