-
Ephithelial Tissues and Glads
Sheet of cells that cover all free body surfaces (inside and out), forming an interface or boundary between two environments. Protects, absorbs, filtration.
-
Apical Surface
(free surface) The top part

Basal Surface
(bound surface) Connects to other parts of the skin
-
Microvilli
Figerlike extension of epithelial cells lining some parts of the digestive tract or kidney. Increasing absorption ad secretion. Adhesion points for secreted mucus.
-
Cilia
Cell membrane as hairs that move uniformly in one direction (wave like).
-
Desmosomes
Link and anchor between cells that prevent cells from being pulled apart.
-
Tight Junctions
Plasma membranes put together to make a leak proof sheets
-
Gap juctios
Leak between cells
-
Basal lamina
Noncellular, adhesive sheet glycoproteins secreted by epithelial cells toward the neighboring connective tissue layer. Selective filter
-
Basement Membrane
Deep in the basal lamina. Reinforces epithelial sheet and defies epithelial boudary
-
-
Stratified
More than one layer
-
Pseudostratified
Looks like more than one layer but isn't.
-
Squamous
Flat plate or scale like
-
Cuboidal
Cube-shaped or box-like
-
Columar
Tall and column shaped
-
Glands
One or more epithelial cells organized to make ad secrete (export) a particular product (often an aqueous fluid that contains proteins)
-
Secretary Pathway
RER -> Golgi -> Vesicles -> Exocytosis
-
Endocrine glads
Ductless (secretion into blood stream). Secrets hormones.
-
Exocrine Glands
Secrete product onto a body surface or into body cavities
-
Globlet Cell
Secretes mucin
-
Multicellular
Secretory unit + duct
-
Simple Squamous epithelium
Allows passage of material by diffusion. Found in the kidneys, lungs, heart, blood vessels, lymphatic, and ventral body cavity
-
Simple Cuboidal Epithelium
Secretion and absorption. Found in the kidneys, small glands, ovary surface.
-
Simple Columnar epithelium
Absorption, secretion of mucus, enzymes. Found in the digestive tract, gallbladder, excretory ducts, uterine tubes, and uterus.
-
Pseudostratified Columnar epithelium
Secretion, particularly of mucus. Found in the male's sperm, trachea, most of the upper respiratory tract.
-
Stratified Squamous Epithelium
(Keratinized) Protects underlying tissues in areas subjected to abrasion. Found in the esophagus, mouth and vagina.
-
Transitional epithelium
Stretches readily and permits distension of urinary organ by contained urine. Found in the ureters, urinary bladder, and pat of the urethra.
-
3 types of fibers
- Collagen - (tendons) extremely tough
- Elastic - stretch and recoil
- Reticular - Fine collagen
-
Tendons
Ties bones and muscles
-
Ligament
Lines bone to bone
-
Regeneration
Replacement of destroyed tissue with some kind of tissue. For simple infection
-
Fibrosis
Replacement of destroyed tissue with fibrous connective tissue
-
-
-
-
-
-
Synovial memebrans
Movable joints. Produce synovial fluid
-
Sebaceous glands
Oil Glands
-
The skin constitutes at least three types of barriers
Chemical, physical, and biological
-
Metabolic function
Synthesizes vitamin D
-
Layers of the epidermis
- Stratum basale
- Stratum spinosum
- Stratum Lucidum
- Stratum corneum
-
Albinism
Failure to produce tyrosinase is the most common form (gingers)
-
Papillary layer
Supports and nourishes overlying epidermis
-
Reticular layer
Dense irregular connective tissue with meshwork of collagen and elastic fibers
-
Eccrine
Helps dissipate excess heat through evaporative cooling.
-
Apocrine
Activated by stress, pain, and sexual excitement.
-
Ceruminous glands
Found in lining of external ear canal.
-
Bulb
Growth zone at inferior end of hair follicle
-
Root
part of the hair enclosed in hair follicle
-
Shaft
visible part of hair; projects from surface of skin
-
Decubitus ulcers (bed sores)
Blood supply restricted -> ischemia (O2 reduced) -> necrosis
-
Sepsis
widespread bacterial infection.
-
Rules of Nine
Way to approximate the extent of burns
-
1st degree burn
Redness, pain, and swelling (inflammation)
-
2nd degree burn
Redness, pain, swelling, and blistering
-
3rd degree burn
Total tissue destruction (epidermis, dermis, and even hypodermis)
-
ABCD(E) Rule for cancer
- A (asymmetry)
- B (irregular border)
- C (color)
- D (larger than 6 mm in diameter, the size of a pencil eraser)
- E (elevation above the skin surface)
-
Kyphosis
An exaggerated thorcic curve. Hunchback.
-
Lordosis
An exaggerated lumbar. Swayback.
-
Scoliosis
A "S" shaped lateral curvature.
-
Hyaline
Provides firm support with some flexibility
-
Elsastic cartilage
Stretch flexibility
-
Fibrocartilage
Strength from collagen fibers but cushioning ability
-
Long bones
Elongated with shaft + two ends
-
Short bones
roughly cube shaped (ankle and wrist bones)
-
Flat bones
Sternum, scapulae, ribs, and most skull bones
-
Irregular bones
vertebrae, hip bones
-
Compact
Smooth and solid in apperance
-
-
Diaphysis
Shaft. Medullary cavity filled with yellow marrow.
-
Epiphysis
Red marrow (blood production)
-
Osteoblasts
Bone forming cells. Builds up matrix called ossification or osteogenesis.
-
Osteocytes
Mature bone cells. Maintain existing matrix
-
Osteoclasts
Bone detroying cells. Breakdown and reabsorption of bone matrix.
-
Chemical composition of bone matrix
Functional anatomy: flexibility (collagen) + strength (mineral salts.. calcium-phosphate crystals)
-
Intramemebranous ossification
Ossification centers develop withing a fibrous membrane. Remnants of intramembranous bone growth.
-
Endochondral ossification
Model for long bone growth and occurs in most bones inferior to skull.
-
Rickets
Childhood demineralization of bone; formative deformities.
-
Osteomalacia
Adult form with softening of bone.
-
Repair
Hematoma (clot the area) is formed. Break is splintered by fibrocartilage. Fibrocartilage callus is replaced by bony callus. Bony callus is remodeled.
-
