a single layer of flat or "squatty" cells
What is simple squamous?
multiple layers of flat or "squatty" cells
What is stratified squamous?
an example of connective tissue that provides support
What is bone?
lining of glands is made of this general category or tissue
what is epithelial tissue?
type of cells that perform the function of the replaced tissue
what are parenchymal cells?
avascular layer of "glue" that attaches the epithelial tissue to another tissue
What is the basement membrane?
layers of cells that line the urinary bladder because they are stretchy
what is stratified transitional epithelium
the large amount of space between cells of connective tissue
What is the extracellular matrix?
the opening of a gland that secretions travel through to reach the surface
What is a duct?
cells that undergo mitosis regularly and quickly such as skin
What are labile cells?
this tissue is found in the kidneys for diffusion, absorption and secretion
What is simple cuboidial epithelial tissue?
the top layer of dead cells in stratified squamous epithelium
What is the keratinized membrane?
loose connective tissue, adipose tissue, dense irregular connective tissue, and dense regular connective tissue are all types of this connective tissue
What is connective tissue proper?
makes secretions that include entire disintegrated cells
What is a holocrine gland?
this is an example of tissue damage that cannot be repaired with functional cells
what is muscle damage/heart attack/diabetes/hypothyroidism?
this type of cell produces mucus and can be found in simple columnar epithelium
What are goblet cells?
this tissue looks like layers, but actually is not. It secretes mucus and moves particles along the free surface with cilia
What is pseudostratified epithelium?
this is the proper name for blood tissue
What is vascular tissue?
these glands are ductless and secrete directly into the bloodstream
What are endocrine glands?
cells that give structure and support for functional cells
What are stromal cells?
this type of tissue is found in the lining of the stomach
What is simple columnar epithelium?
this tissue is found in the lining of the mouth where the top layer can remain alive covered in mucus
What is moist stratified epithelium?
this type of tissue provides strength in all directions like a cloth, and is located in the dermis
What is dense irregular connective tissue?
this type of gland has cytoplasm in the secretions because it contains pieces of cells
What is the apocrine gland?
this tissue contains many stable cells
What is bone/skeletal system?
