Introduction to Histology Introduction Histology is the microscopic study of cells and tissues of organisms. This study is important in the overall understanding of anatomy and physiology of organisms. It helps to understand the structures and functions of various tissues that make up bodily organs and systems (Wendy Wright‚ 2014). The cell theory states that a cell is the fundamental biological unit. All living organisms are composed of one or more cells‚ and every bodily activity that takes

HISTOLOGY PURPOSE: The purpose of this exercise is to be able to identify and correctly name the major tissue types in the body‚ as well as identifying the subcatergories of tissue types while observing them through the microscope and diagrams‚ and be able to explain the location and function of the tissue types in the body. There are not any real safety concerns for this lab other than making sure correct use and care of the microscope is used. EXERCISE 1: EPITHEILIAL TISSUE Epithelial Tissue Observations

Histology This lab focused on the examination and identification of tissues that make up the organs of the body. The tissues are divided into four main categories: epithelial‚ connective‚ muscle‚ and neuronal. Click on the thumbnail images to see a larger version. All of the photomicrographs were taken using the 40X objective (400X magnification)‚ which is the highest magnification we use in this lab. Other resources include linked web pages on the "Resources" page and the histology tutorial

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

Endocrine Case Histories - Case 28 A 21-year-old noncompliant male with a history of type I (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus was found in a coma. His blood glucose was high‚ as well as his urine glucose‚ urine ketones‚ and serum ketones. His serum bicarbonate was <12 mEq/L. His respiration was exaggerated and his breath had an acetone odor. His blood pressure was 90/60 and his pulse weak and rapid (120). ------------------------------------------------- Top of Form 1. Define noncompliant
