Questions With Accurate Solutions
simple squamous epithelium - CORRECT ANSWER-Absorption;
found in lungs, lining of heart
simple cuboidal epithelium - CORRECT ANSWER-Secretion and absorption;
found in kidney tubules, ducts, glads, ovary surface
simple columnar epithelium - CORRECT ANSWER-Absorption;
GI tract
stratified squamous epithelium - CORRECT ANSWER-Protection;
mouth, throat, vagina, skin
stratified cuboidal epithelium - CORRECT ANSWER-Protection;
largest ducts of sweat glands, mammary glands, and salivary glands.
stratified columnar epithelium - CORRECT ANSWER-Protection and secretion;
rare in the body; small amounts in male urethra and in large ducts of some glands
pseudostratified columnar epithelium - CORRECT ANSWER-secretion, particularly of
mucus; propulsion of mucus by ciliary action;
Trachea
, loose areolar connective tissue - CORRECT ANSWER--the most common connective
tissue
-wraps and cushions organs
-widely distributed throughout the body
-fibroblasts and a dynamic array of other cells
-plays a role in host defenses against infection
adipose connective tissue - CORRECT ANSWER-Acts as a storage depot for fat,
insulates against heat loss
reticular connective tissue - CORRECT ANSWER-forms supporting tissue in walls of
liver and spleen
reticular fibers - CORRECT ANSWER-Fibers made of collagen fibers that are very thin
and branched. Forma tightly woven fabric that joins connective tissue to adjacent
tissues.
Fibroblasts - CORRECT ANSWER-In connective tissue, cells that secrete the proteins
of the fibers. (1)
Collagen fiber - CORRECT ANSWER-flexible fibrous proteins that give connective
tissue tensile strength. (3)
Elastic fiber - CORRECT ANSWER-fibrous protein within connective tissue that
contains a high percentage of the protein elastin that allows the fibers to stretch and
return to original size.
dense regular connective tissue - CORRECT ANSWER-Function: attaches muscles to
bones or to muscles; attaches bones to bones; withstands great tensile stress when
pulling force is applied in one direction
