Histology Anatomy 10A
2
Tissues are sectioned in three ways: Longitudinal section Transverse, cross- section Oblique
3
Category 1: epithelia Surface and lining layer(s) Characterized by cells close together Characterized by no blood vessels Described by the number of layers One, or more than one Described by the shape Flat, square or rectangular
4
Simple epithelium= 1 layer Basement membrane Stratified epithelium = more than one layer
5
Types of epithelium based on shape Squamous = flat Cuboidal = square Columnar = rectangular
6
Simple squamous epithelium Each cell is like a floor tile- thin and flat, placed very close to the next tile. 3D view2-D view
7
Simple cuboidal epithelium 3-D view 2-D view Each cell is shaped like an ice cube with the nucleus in the center.
8
Simple columnar epithelium (with microvilli, non-ciliated) Each cell is tall, rectangular-shaped. Nuclei are organized in rows. 3-D 2-D view
9
Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelia 3-D 2 2-D view Cells are many sizes; tallest are ciliated. Nuclei are disorganized, staggered.
10
Simple colunmar epithelium (with microvilli)
11
Transitional epithelia 3-D 2-D view Cells transition in shape from cubes to columns to rounded pillow-like cells.
12
Stratified squamous epithelia Cells flatten as they go to the surface
13
Stratified squamous epithelia
14
Epithelia review, compare and contrast
19
Category 2: connective tissue Characterized by scattered cells Protein (fibers or globular) in the matrix outside cells Matrix can be liquid, semi-solid, or solid Found under epithelial layers, never on a surface
21
Areolar (loose) connective tissue
22
Adipose
24
Dense regular (Fibrous) connective tissue
26
Blood
28
Hyaline cartilage
30
Elastic cartilage
32
Fibrocartilage
34
Bone
36
Category 3: muscles Contract Found in three places: –Heart (cardiac) –Hollow organs (smooth) –Attached to the skeleton (skeletal)
38
Skeletal muscle
39
Skeletal (voluntary) muscle
40
Cardiac muscle
42
Smooth muscle
