air and is dry. The cutaneous membrane is composed of keratinizing stratified squamous epithelium. The second is the mucous membrane‚ which is the tissue used for absorption and secretion‚ protective lubricating mucus in the repertory and digestive system. This membrane lines the hollow organs‚ such as the throat‚ urinary or digestive tracts. The mucous membrane can be made up of simple columnar epithelium. The last type is the serous membrane. This membrane can line and cover the abdominal cavity

Unit 3 Lecture Study Guide 1. List the 4 primary tissue types and give the general characteristics and functions of each one. Epithelium- The epithelium protects us from the outside world. Skin‚ absorbs. Stomach and intestinal lining‚ filters. The kidney‚ secretes. Forming of glands‚ closely attached to each other forming a protective barrier‚ always has one free surface open to outside the body or inside an internal organ‚ has no blood vessels but can soak up nutrients from blood vessels in connective

protein keratin‚ the same hard protein material that feels the cells of the epidermis. The process of hair formulation is much like the process of growth in the epidermal layer of the skin. 2.Epidermis-Is composed of the stratified squamous epithelium. This type of epithelial tissue consists of flat scale-like cells arranged in overlapping layers or strata. The epidermis does not have a blood supply or any connective tissue so it is dependent for nourishment on the deeper layer of skin.

assignment are the intestines and the heart. Tissues All cells group together within the body to form tissue‚ a collection of similar cells group together to perform a specialized function. There are four primary tissue types in the human body - epithelium‚ connective tissue‚ nervous and the muscle tissue. Epithelial tissue- This tissue is specialised to cover the whole part of the body lining of all of the internal and external body surfaces‚ they are packed tightly together to form continuous

referring to the flatness of the cells. They fit jointly‚ rather like crazy paving. Clearly‚ such delicate thin cells cannot offer much protection and their chief function is to allow materials to pass through via diffusion and osmosis. Simple squamous epithelium is found in the walls of; lung alveoli‚ blood capillaries and Bowman’s capsule of nephrons. As their names propose‚ cubiodal cells are cube-shaped‚ with spherical nuclei. They often line ducts and tubes and can allow materials to pass through in

HISTOLOGY: EPITHELIAL TISSUE o Human body composed of 4 basic types of tissue: epithelial‚ connective‚ nervous and muscular o Formed by cells and molecules of the extracellular matrix o Connective tissue: characterized by the abundance of extracellular fluid o Organs can be divided by parenchyma (composed of cells for main function of organ) and stroma ( supporting tissue) o Except in brain and spinal cord stroma made of connective tissue o Epithelial tissue: covering‚ lining protecting surfaces

flat b. Cuboidal: cube like c. Columnar: tall and slender 8. Using a light microscope‚ you examine a tissue and see a simple squamous epithelium on the outer surface. Can this be a sample of the skin surface? No. a simple squamous epithelium does not provide enough protection against infection‚ abrasion‚ and dehydration. The surface has a stratified squamous epithelium. 9. Name the two primary types of glandular epithelia: a. Endocrine glands b. Exocrine glands 10. The secretory cells of sebaceous

OBJECTIVES - Name the four major types of cells in the human body‚ and describe their defining characteristics. - Describe the distribution of water in the body‚ and define the different body fluid compartments. - Define homeostasis and explain its significance to the function of the body. Describe the role of negative feedback in homeostasis. - Describe how negative feedback systems regulate body temperature. Include the role of sensors‚ effectors‚ input‚ output‚ integrating center‚ set point

Anatomy Outline Notes Exam 1 Developmental Anatomy – is the way anatomy changes over time in a single species -somites are segmental blocks found in embryos that form muscles & vertebrae etc. Comparative Anatomy – is the comparison of anatomies between different species. -all known vertebrates have common feature (skull & vertebrae): this leads to evolutionary theory. Hierarchy of Structural Organization -Body -> System -> Organ -> Tissue -> Cells -> Chemical/Molecular
