Presentation Transcript

  1. Tissue ID-ing Practice Practice for the histology test

  2. Simple squamousDescription: Single layered flattened cell, nuclei is centeredFunction: to allow passage for materials where security is not important; secretes lubricating substancesLocation: Kidney, air sacs of the lungs

  3. Simple CuboidalDescription: Single layered cubelike cellsFunction: to absorb and secreteLocation: Kidney, ovary surface

  4. Simple ColumnarDescription: single layer tall cells with round to oval nuclei..a little bit of ciliaFunction: To secrete and absorb mucusLocation: stomach, anal canal

  5. Stratified SquamousDescription: Multi-layered with a squamous apical surfaceFunction: To protect underlying tissues from abrasionLocation: Mouth, linings of the esophagus

  6. HyalineDescription: Smooth firm matrixFunction: support and reinforceLocation: trachea, larynx

  7. ElasticDescription: Similar to hyaline, but more elastic fibers in matrixFunction: Maintains shape of structure and allow flexibilityLocation: external ears (pinna)

  8. FibrocartilageDescription: Matrix is similar but less firm than hyalineFunction: ability to absorb compressive shock.Location: intervertebral discs, discs of knee joint

  9. Osseous (Bone) TissueDescription: hard, calcified matrix containing collagen fibersFunction: Bone supports and protects: lever for muscles to act onLocation: Bones

  10. BloodDescription: Red and white blood cells in a fluid matrixFunction: transport respiratory gasses and nutrientsLocation: within blood vessels

  11. Nervous TissueDescription: branching cells surrounded by supporting cells (neuroglia)Function: Transmit electrical signals from sensory receptors to effectors; control activityLocation: brain, spinal cord, nerves

  12. Skeletal Muscle TissueDescription: Striated, long, cylindricalFunction: Voluntary movement, facial expression, controlLocation: attached to bones

  13. Smooth Muscle TissueDescription: central nuclei, no striations, sheet-likeFuction: Propels substances along internal passageways; involuntary controlLocation: Walls of hollow organs

  14. Areolar TissueDescription: Gel-like matrix with all three fibers: Elastic, Collagen and fibroblast fibersFunction: wrap and cushion organs; provide protection and holds tissue fluidLocation: under epithelia

  15. Adipose TissueDescription: Made up of close packed adipocytes which are fat cells. Nuclei pushed to the sideFunction: Provides reserve fuel and organ protectionLocation: Breast, within the abdomen
