Definition
pseudostratified columnar
Term
example of simple sqaumous?
Definition
linings of lungs
Term
example of simple cuboidal?
Definition
kidney. have multiple sides and specialized f(x)'s on each side. made possible by tight junctions which separate the sides from each other
Term
example of ciliated simple columnar?
Definition
uterine tube. propulsion/secretion.
Term
example of nonciliated simple columnar?
Definition
best for absorption and secretion; intestine. increased SA for absorption.
Term
example of stratified squamous?
Definition
granulosum in epidermis. skin. gradually more keratinized
Term
example of pseudostratified columnar?
Definition
propulsion and secretion again. intestines.

adipose connective tissue

Definition
loose connective tissue
Term
example/f(x) of loose connective tissue?
Definition
elastic and collagen fibers. attach skin to muscle. subcutaneous.
Term
[image]
Definition
dense connective tissue. note the black dots = fibroblasts. use these to distinguish dense connective tissue from smooth muscular tissue
Term

irregular dense connective tissue
Term
dense irregular connective tissue example?
Definition
layer of dermis between basale layer and epidermis
Term

Definition
reticular connective tissue. note the fibers.

Definition
elastic connective tissue
Term
examples of elastic connective tissue?
Definition
ears, heart (expand and contraction)
Term
[image]
Definition
hyaline cartilage. note how they're within lacunae
Term
location of hyaline cartilage?
Definition
very stiff and durable. connects ribs to sternum. @ epiphysis
Term
location of elastic cartilage?
Definition
mostly for support and flexibility. @ epiglottis for swallowing
Term
[image]
Definition
elastic cartilage. note the presence of both wavy-elastic-fibers and lacunae
Term
[image]
Definition
fibrocartilage. note: chondrocytes all in a row. collagen fibers. distinguish from dense connective tissue b/c there are visible fibers.
Term
example/location/f(x) of fibrocartilage?
Definition
thickest cartilage. compressible-> absorbs shock. between vertebra, between joints
Term
[image]
Definition
smooth muscle. note: no fibers visible
