Tissue Concept Map

Histology: The study of Tissue

Tissue: Composed of multiple cells working together to preform on function

Muscle Tissue

Nervous Tissue

Helps the body become motile, provides cells that give flexibility to provide movement for the body.

Connective Tissue

Epithelial Tissue

Internal communication for the body and transmits impulses for coordination, regulation, integration, and sensory reception. (The remote control for the body)

Skeletal

Cardiac

Smooth

Mammal smooth muscle

Function: Heart movements

function: Voluntary movements of skeletal parts

Neurons

Function: Involuntary movements of internal organs

Neurogial

Generates and conduct nerve impulses, senses changes in the environment, initiate responses to those changes, and also regulates to maintain homeostasis.

Mammal Cardiac Muscle

Provides and promotes protection, secretion, absorption, and excretion for the body. (liners of the body)

Bind, support, protect, fill spaces, store fat, and produce blood cells for the body. (frame work and fillers)

Nonconducting cells that support, bind, insulate, and protect delicate neurons. Another function they have is connecting blood vessels to supply nutrients to thier fellow nerve cells.

Cerebrum & Cerebellum Human, sec.

Stratified squamous epithelium

Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium

Simple columnar Epithelium

Simple Squamous Epithelium

Cells divide in the deeper layers, and newer cells push older ones father outward, where they become flattened. They also form outer layer of the skin.

Simple Cuboidal Epithelium

Appear stratified or layered but they are not. They commonly have have cilia, which extend from the free surfaces of the cells.

Elongated, single layer of cells whose nuclei are usually located at about the same level, near the basement membrane

Consists of a single layer of thin, flattened cells. These cells fit tightly together, somewhat like floor tiles, and their nuclei are usually broad and thin.

Consists of a single layer of cube-shaped cells. These cells usually have centrally located, spherical nuclei.

Example: Linings of respiratory passage

Examples: Outer layer of skin, linings of oral cavity, throat, vagina, an anal canal.

Example: Linings of uterus, stomach, lungs, fallopian tubes, and intestines.

Function: Secrete mucous and promotes movement along the airways in the lungs

Example: Alveoli, Air sacs of the lungs, walls of capillaries, linings of blood and lymph vessels.

Example: Surface of ovaries, linings of kidney tubules, and linings of ducts of saliva, pancreas and liver glands

Function: Cilia movements and microvilli

Function: Site for diffusion & filtration

Function: Secrete & reabsorb

Simple Columnar Cilliate

Blood

Connective Tissue Proper

Bone Tissue

Blood human Hematoxylin

Adipose Tissue

Areolar

Cartilage

Adipose, or fat, is a specialized form of loose connective tissue that develops when certain cells store fat in droplets within their cytoplasm and enlarge.

Forms delicate, thin membranes throughout the body.

Glandular Epithelium

Bone dry ground human

Stratified Columnar Epithelium

Cells: Fibroblasts, Fibrocytes, Defense cells and Adipocytes

Transports a varitety of materials between interior body cellsand those that exchange substances with the external environment.

Matrix: Gel-like ground substance; All 3 fiber types:collagen, reticular, and elastic

Transitional Epithelium

Matrix: Gel-like ground substance; All 3 fiber types:collagen, reticular, and elastic

Stratified Cuboidal Epithelium

Hyaline Cartilage

Reticular

Elastic Cartilage

The most common type, has very fine collagenous fibers in its extracellular matrix and looks somewhat like white glass.

Areolar tissue spread film, v&8

Adipose tissue

Most rigid connective tissue. Its hardness is largely due to mineral salts, such as calcium phosphate an calcium carbonate, between cells.

Very thin collagenous fibers. They are highly branched and form delicate supporting networks in a variety of tissues.

Consists of several layers of cells, and the superficial cells are columnar, whereas the basal layers consist of cuboidal cells.

Composed of cells that are specialized to produce and secrete substances into ducts columnar and cuboidal epithelia, and one or more of these cells constitute a gland.

Contains a dense network of elastic fibers and thus is more flexible than hyaline cartilage.

Cells: Chondroblasts found in growing cartilage, chondrocytes

Specialized to change in response to increase tension. Forms in the inner lining of the urinary bladder and lines the ureters and part of the urethra.

Cells: Fibroblasts, Fibrocytes, Defense cells and Adipocytes

Consists of two or three layers of cuboidal cells that from the lining of a lumen. The more layers, the better the protection.

Matrix:Gel-like ground substance: Fibers: collagen, elastic fibers in some

Cells: Chondroblasts found in growing cartilage, chondrocytes

Matrix: Gel-like ground substance; All 3 fiber types:collagen, reticular, and elastic

Matrix:Gel-like ground substance: Fibers: collagen, elastic fibers in some

Cells: Erythrocytes or red blood cells (RBC),Leukocytes or white blood cells (WBC), Platelets

Elastic

Dense Connective Tissue

Fibrocartilage

Cells: Osteoblasts, Osteocytes

Elastic Cartilage epiglottis

Examples: Inner lining of urinary bladder and linings of uterus and part of urethra

Examples: Linings of larger ducts of mammary glands, sweat glands, salivary glands, pancreas

Composed of a protein called elastin. These fibers are weaker than collagenous fibers, but they stretch easily and can resume their original lengths and shapes.

A very tough tissue, contains many collagenous fibers.

Consists of many closely packed, thick, collagenous fibers and a fine network of elastic fibers.

Examples: Vas deferens, part of the male urethra, parts of the pharynx

Cells: Fibroblasts, Fibrocytes, Defense cells and Adipocytes

Cells: Chondroblasts found in growing cartilage, chondrocytes

Examples: Salivary glands, sweat glands, and endocrine glands

Matrix: Gel-like ground substance; All 3 fiber types: collagen, reticular, and elastic

Matrix: Gel-like ground substance; All 3 fiber types:collagen, reticular, and elastic

Matrix: Plasma,No fibers

Matrix:Gel-like ground substance: Fibers: collagen, elastic fibers in some

Transitional epithelium sec. H&E

Matrix: Gel-like ground substance calcified with in organic salts; fibers: collagen
