“ TISSUES- BEYOND KLEENEX”
2
What is a tissue?? Groups of cells that are similar in structure and function 4 Types: epithelium, connective, nervous, muscle
3
EPITHELIAL TISSUE “covering” Function= protection, absorption, secretion, excretion Location= body surfaces Cells fit closely together No blood supply Divides quickly Basement membrane Apical surface
4
Types of Epithelial Tissue Characterized by shape & # of layers Simple (1 layer) Stratified (many layers)
5
Simple Squamous Epithelium Single, flat, thin, fish-like Alveoli (lungs), capillaries
6
Simple Cuboidal Epithelium Single, cube-shaped Nucleus in center Glands, kidneys, ovaries
7
Simple Columnar Epithelium Single, long Nuclei near basement membrane Thick Goblet cells- produce mucus Digestive tract
8
Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium Appear layered, but NOT cilia Respiratory tract
9
Stratified Squamous Epithelium Many layers, thick & flat Protection Esophagus, mouth, outer skin
10
Stratified Cuboidal Epithelium Layers, cubed Protection Sweat ducts Rare
11
Stratified Columnar Epithelium Layers, columns Rare Male urethra
12
Transitional Epithelium Modified stratified squamous Stretchable Only in urinary system
13
Glandular Epithelium Cells produce and secrete substances Endocrine Glands- secrete into body fluids or blood (hormones) Exocrine Glands- secrete onto surface (sweat)
14
QUIZ Epithelial Quiz Histology
15
CONNECTIVE TISSUE support, protection, binding together Most abundant tissue in the body Extracellular matrix- nonliving, liquid, gel-like, or hard –Collagen fibers (white -tendons) –Elastic fibers (elastic -yellow- vocal chords) –Reticular fibers (very fine)
16
Bone Tissue Rigid & hard (hard matrix) Support & protection Osteocytes (bone cells) in lacunae (cavities) Blood supply good, heals fast
17
CARTILAGE- Hyaline Cartilage More flexible Chondrocytes (cells) in lacunae Nose, larynx, bone ends, fetus skeleton
18
CARTILAGE- Elastic Cartilage Ear Elastic fibers
19
CARTILAGE- Fibrocartilage Shock absorber Knee caps, vertebrae
20
Dense Connective Tissue Closely packed collagen fibers Tendons, ligaments Blood supply low; heals slow
21
Loose Connective Tissue- Areolar tissue Delicate, thin, more matrix Cushions organs
22
LOOSE CONNECTIVE TISSUE- Adipose Tissue FAT cells Stored oil pushes nuclei to side Insulation & protection
23
LOOSE CONNECTIVE TISSUSE- Reticular Connective Tissue Lymph nodes, spleen, bone marrow Reticular fibers
24
Blood Cells/ nonliving plasma Transportation WBC, RBC, platelets, plasma
25
Skeletal Muscle Specialized to contract Attached to bones Voluntary Striations, many nuclei
26
Cardiac Muscle Striated, 1 nucleus, intercalated disks Involuntary Heart only
27
Smooth Muscle No striations 1 nucleus, cells pointed at ends Involuntary Stomach, bladder
28
Nervous Tissue Cells = neurons
29
Tissue Repair
30
Wound Healing 2 ways: –Regeneration: replacement of destroyed tissue by cells –Fibrous: “scar tissue” Depends on type of tissue damaged & severity
31
wound healing animationwound healing animation Granulation tissue Good regeneration: –Skin, bone Poor regeneration: –Cardiac & nervous tissue
33
NEOPLASMS- Cancerous or Benign Cell divides rapidly (cancerous or benign)
34
Hyperplasia Tissues enlarge because of a stimulus that irritates the cells
35
Atrophy
