37
What separates the thoracic and abdominopelvic cavities?
the diaphragm
38
Where is epithelial tissue found?
lining internal and external surfaces and forming secretary glands
39
What is the purpose of epithelial tissue?
protection, selective barrier, and forming secretory surfaces
40
What are the three types of layers of epithelial tissue?
simple, stratified, and pseudostratified
41
What are the three shapes of epithelial tissue?
squamous, cuboidal, and columnar
42
What is simple epithelial tissue?
one-layered
43
What is stratified epithelial tissue?
2-30 layers
44
What is pseudostratified epithelial tissue?
one layer that appears stratified with uneven nuclei
45
What is squamous epithelial tissue?
flat cells with a bump for the nucleus
46
What is cuboidal epithelial tissue?
cube-like with even nuclei
47
What is columnar epithelial tissue?
long and rectangular with even nuclei
48
What are the four types of tissue?
epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous
49
What are the three sides of epithelial cells?
apical is the exposed surface, lateral are the sides, and basal is the bottom
50
How does epithelial tissue attach to the connective tissue?
interlocking proteins attach the basal side of the cell to the extracellular matrix, forming the basement membrane
51
Where do epithelial tissues receive their nutrient supply from?
the tissues are avascular, so the connective tissue below provides them with nutrients and waste removal
52
Describe the appearance, purpose, and location of simple squamous tissue
single row of thin cells with bumps for nuclei
quickly diffuse or transport substances
alveoli in lungs
53
Describe the appearance, purpose, and location of simple cuboidal tissue
single row of square cells with even nuclei
secretion of substances
make up glands
54
Describe the appearance, purpose, and location of simple columnar tissue
single row of tall, rectangular cells with even nuclei
contain goblet cells that secrete mucus for protection/have microvilli that aid in absorbing nutrients during digestion
line the digestive tract
55
Describe the appearance, purpose, and location of pseudostratified columnar tissue
appears stratified, uneven nuclei
apical side has cilia that aid in transporting mucus
found in the respiratory tract
56
Describe the appearance, purpose, and location of thick and thin keratinized stratified squamous tissue
five stacked layers of squamous cells with a white band near the surface
create a liquid-proof barrier
thick found on the palms of hands and soles of feet, thin everywhere else
(thick tissue doesn't have hair follicles so they don't secrete oils)
57
Describe the appearance, purpose, and location of non-keratinized stratified squamous tissue
four layers of squamous cells, no white band, nuclei found all the way through
