Where do glands developed from and what kinds are there?

Epithelial tissue

Endocrine and Exocrine glands

100

Which glands internally release and which glad release externally?

Which glands have a duct?

Internally-Endocrine glands

External-Exocrine glands

Exocrine glands have a gland

100

What are the finger like extensions of the plasma membrane?

Microvilli

100

What are the 4 mains types of C.T and where do they originate from?

Connective Tissue Proper, Cartilage, Bone, and Blood.  They originate from mesenchyme.

100
Connective tissues proper has two subclasses Loose C.T. and Dense C.T.


What are the Loose C.T and Dense C.T (fibrous)?

Loose: Areolar, Adipose, and Reticular

Dense: Regular, Irregular, Elastic

200

What is transitional epithelia made of and what is its function?

Made of a stratified squamous epithelia and allow stretch unrinary system organs

200

What and where do exocrine glands release?

They release hormones into the blood or lymphatic vessles.

200

What are the main junctions for binding cells together?

Desmosomes

200

Besides coming from mesenchyme. What are the other 3 characteristics of C.T.?

Very well vascularized, composed of many cell types, and lastly have a matrix.

200

T/F reticular fibers are the only fibers found in Reticular connective tissue?

True

Example: Bone Marrow 

300

Which epithelia’s function is secretion and absorption?

Simple cuboidal epithelium

300

What are goblet cells?

Cells that produce mucin that when comes in contact with water creates mucus

300

What are the tight belt like junctions

Tight junctions

300

Ground substance holds interstitial fluid and what else?

Fibers:

-Collagen Fibers

-Elastic Fibers

-Reticular Fibers

300

Which fibers run in the same direction and which fibers run in different planes?

Same direction-Dense regular C.T.

Different-Dense irregular C.T.

400

How do we classify epithelial cells?

By looking on the apical surface and how many layers.

400

What are the classifications and categories of multicellular exocrine glands?

Classifications-Simple and Compound

Categories-Tubular, Alveolar, and tubuloalveolar

400

What makes up the basement membrane?

Basal Lamina and reticular fibers

Which fiber supports bordering C.T.?

Which fiber can snap back?

Collagen

Reticular

Elastic

400

What are the 3 types of cartilage found in the matrix?

Hyaline cartilage, Fibrocartilage, and Elastic cartilage

500

What is the tunnel like passage way between adjacent cells?

Gap Junctions

500

Besides ground substance and fibers what else does areolar C.T. do?

Fight off infection with defense cells, and stores nutrients witch fat cells.
