Study Notes
Hypodermis
- The hypodermis is composed of adipose connective tissue.
Serous Membranes
- Serous membranes are composed of simple squamous epithelium.
- Visceral serous membranes line the surface of organs.
- Parietal serous membranes form the outer membrane.
- The pleura is the serous membrane surrounding the lungs.
- The pericardium is the serous membrane surrounding the heart.
- The peritoneum is the serous membrane found in the abdominopelvic area.
Cilia
- Cilia are cellular projections that propel substances.
- These are commonly found on pseudostratified epithelium in the upper respiratory tract.
Microvilli
- Microvilli are cellular projections that increase surface area for absorption.
- These are commonly found on simple columnar epithelium in the intestine.
Hypodermis Tissue
- The hypodermis layer of the skin is primarily composed of adipose connective tissue.
Serous Membrane Tissue
- Serous membranes are composed of thin, smooth simple squamous epithelium.
Serous Membrane Types
- Visceral serous membranes directly touch the surface of organs.
- Parietal serous membranes form the outer membrane of the cavity.
- Pleura surrounds the lungs.
- Pericardium surrounds the heart.
- Peritoneum is found in the abdominopelvic area.
Cilia
- Cilia are cellular projections that propel substances along their surface.
- Cilia are found on pseudostratified epithelium in the upper respiratory tract.
Microvilli
- Microvilli are cellular projections that increase surface area for absorption.
- Microvilli are found on simple columnar epithelium in the intestine.
Hypodermis
