EPITHELIAL TISSUES
● Widespread throughout the body
o Covers organs, and lines body surfaces
● Anchored to a basement membrane
CLASSIFICATION OF GLANDS
STRATFIED CUBOIDAL EPITHELIUM ● Classified by the ways they secrete their products
Merocrin
● Release fluid by exocytosis
e
(pancreas)
● Grouped as serous
CONNECTIVE TISSUE
TRANSITIONAL EPITHELIUM
● Bind, support, protect, serve as framework, fill spaces,
● Designed to distend and return to its normal size store fat, produce blood cells, protect against infection,
o Lining of the urinary bladder and repair tissue damage
o Bile storage
● Have more abundant matrix (intercellular material)
● Provides distensibility and keeps urine from diffusing back
● Have good blood supplies (except cartilage)
into the internal cavity
3 MAJOR CELL TYPES
● Produces fiber
● Scavenger cells
Macrophages
● Defend against infection
’
● Immune system – engulfs bacteria
and destroys it inside
● Located near blood vessels (large)
GLANDULAR EPITHELIUM Mast cells
where they release
o Heparin (anticoagulant)
MUSCLE TISSUE
● Muscle cells, or fibers can contract
DENSE CONNECTIVE TISSUE
● Consists of densely packed collagenous fibers
o Very strong; but lacks good blood supply
CUTANEOUS
CARDIAC MUSCLE TISSUE
● Consists of the skin (integument)
● Found only in the heart
NERVOUS TISSUE
● Found in the brain, spinal cord, and the nerves
EPITHELIAL MEMBRANES
● Composed of a layer of epithelial tissue and a layer of
connective tissue
● Cover body surfaces and line body cavities
TYPES OF MEMBRANES
SEROUS
● They line the thorax and abdomen and cover the organs
within these cavities.
● made up of epithelium and loose connective tissue and
secrete serous fluid that acts as a lubricant.
