Study Notes
Muscle Tissue Functions
- Involuntary movements of body organs, such as digestion and heartbeats.
- Propulsion of materials through the digestive tract.
- Voluntary movements enabling body part mobility.
Blood Cells
- Red blood cells are termed erythrocytes.
Epithelial Tissue Types
- Stratified epithelium consists of two or more layers of cells.
- Pseudostratified epithelium has cells of differing heights, not all reaching the surface.
Connective Tissue
- Loose connective tissue falls under the category of connective tissue proper.
- Exocrine glands have ducts that secrete products onto surfaces or into lumens.
- Endocrine glands lack ducts, secreting hormones directly into the bloodstream.
Gland Composition
- Majority of glands are formed from epithelial tissue.
Characteristics of Epithelial Tissue
- Composed primarily of cells with tightly bound connections.
- Features high regeneration capacity and rich innervation, lacking blood vessels.
- The basal surface is anchored to a basement membrane.
Epithelial Repair Capacity
- High regenerative capacity explains the ability of epithelial tissues to heal.
Types and Functions of Epithelia
- Simple epithelium is found in areas of minimal stress, primarily for filtration, absorption, or secretion.
- Simple squamous epithelium allows for diffusion and osmosis, lining blood vessels.
- Transitional epithelium lines the urinary bladder, allowing it to stretch.
Goblet Cells
- Specialized cells that secrete mucus.
Specialized Glands
- Serous glands generate fluids like sweat, milk, and digestive juices.
- Criteria for multicellular exocrine glands include morphology, type, and method of secretion.
Muscle Tissue Types
- Three types: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle.
- Cardiac muscle features striations, intercalated discs, and bifurcating cells.
Bones and Skeleton
- Bones of the appendicular skeleton encompass leg bones, pectoral girdles, pelvic girdles, and hand bones.
- Clavicle connects between the sternum and scapula.
- Hyaline cartilage is the weakest and most common cartilage type found in various parts like fetal skeleton, costal cartilages, and joints.
Tissue Components
- Connective tissue comprises protein fibers, cells, and ground substance.
- Reticular fibers have collagen, allowing body parts to remain flexible.
Nervous Tissue
- Glial cells support and protect neurons, essential for information processing.
Hierarchical Classifications
- Bones categorized in order from distal to proximal include phalanges, metacarpals, and carpals.
Skin and Membranes
- The cutaneous membrane is synonymous with the skin.
- Skin thickness is classified based on the number of strata and their relative thickness.
Wound Healing
- The process involves migration of stratum basal cells over the wound and regeneration of the epidermis.
Sensory Functions
- Skin receptors detect cold, vibration, and pressure, contributing to the sensory response.
Hair Types
- Hair types produced during life include lanugo, vellus, and terminal hairs.
