Protection & Secretion
What is the function of a transitional ET?

Stretches readily & permits distension of urinary organ by contained urine
What does Epithelial Tissue do?

Lines the surface
what are the five characteristics of ET?

Cellularity, Regenerations, Avascularity, Polarity, and Supported by connective tissue
What is cellularity?

when cells fit closely together to form membranes
What is Avascularity?

having no blood supply of their own & depends of diffusion of nutrients
what is the apical surface?

the cell membrance is one biologicalmembrane seperating the interior of a cellfrom the outside environment
Define the characteristics 'supported by connective tissue'?

cells are attached & supported by "basement membrane" (basal surface) which is secreted by ET (basal lamina) & connective tissue (reticular lamina)

Columnar ET. Specifically. simple & pseudostratified columnar ET
What
What is secretion?

The release of a substance
Define absorption?

The active or passive uptake of gases, fluids or solutes
what is keratinized?

dry
what is nonkeratinized?

wet
define diffusion?

passive molecular movement from an area of higher concentration to lower concentration
Define filtration?

the movement of a fluid across a membrane whose pores restrict the passage of solutes on the base of size
define voluntary control

consciously controlled
define involuntary control

unconsciously controlled, no control
