Directional Terms
Towards the nose
What is rostral?
Draw an animal (with at least one front and one back leg). Label the top side and walking surfaces of the limbs.
Dorsal (2x)
Palmar
Plantar
Draw Simple Squamous & Stratified Squamous and describe them.
Squamous = flat & squished nucleus
Simple = One layer
Stratified = 2+ layers
Areolar Connective Tissue is this type of tissue
What is loose connective tissue proper?
Ductless Glands
Secrete hormones
What are ENDOCRINE glands?
Creates a left and right
What is a sagittal plane?
Draw an animal (with at least one front and one back leg). Label the limbs with the correct A&P term.
Thoracic Limb
Pelvic Limb
Draw Simple Cuboidal & Stratified Cuboidal and describe them.
Cuboidal = As tall as it is wide & round, central nucleus
Simple = One layer
Stratified = 2+ layers
Type of connective tissue that protects the articular surface of bones
What is articular cartilage (hyaline)?
Goblet cells are this type of gland
What are UNICELLULAR EXOCRINE glands?
Creates a backbone and belly section
What is a dorsal plane?
Draw an animal's head (facing towards you) draw and label arrows pointing towards and away from the midline.
Medial
Lateral
Draw Simple Columnar & Stratified Columnar and describe them.
Columnar = Taller than it is wide & basally located nucleus
Simple = One layer
Stratified = 2+ layers
Connective tissue found in the fibrous covering of the kidneys
What is irregular connective tissue?
Epithelium covered ducts
Secretory unit
What are MULTICELLULAR EXOCRINE glands?
Within the body creates a cranial and caudal section. Within the leg creates a proximal and distal section.
What is a transverse plane?
Draw an animal's head (facing sideways) draw and label arrows pointing towards the nose, towards the poll, down, and up.
Rostral
Cranial
Distal
Proximal
Draw & describe psuedostratified epithelium.
one layer
scattered nuclei
all cells attached at basal layer
Composed of collagen fibers arranged in a net-like pattern
What is reticular connective tissue?
Secreted by goblet cells
What is MUCIN? (or MUCOUS)
Towards the poll within the head
What is cranial?
Draw the side profile of an animal and the face on an animal (facing you). Draw and label five DIFFERENT planes
Midsagittal
Sagittal
Transverse (leg & body)
Dorsal
Draw and describe transitional epithelium.
Stratified
Basal cells = cuboidal or columnar
Apical cells = dome shaped or squamous
Allows for STRETCH
Draw a chart of the subclasses of CT Proper. Then describe each type's appearance and the fibers it is composed of
Areolar (all 3 fibers) (loosely organized w/lots of cells & fibrous components)
Adipose (fat droplets) (bubble-like appearance)
Reticular (reticular fibers) (net-like)
Dense Regular (collagen fibers) (waves oriented in the same direction)
Dense Irregular (collagen fibers) (net-like)
Elastic (elastic fibers) (lined up in the same direction)
Chemical Messengers
What are HORMONES?
