Edition - Chapter 4: Tissues, Glands,
and Membranes Questions and Correct
Answers the Latest Update and
Recommended Version
Histology
✓ The study of tissues
Stem Cell(s)
✓ Young, actively dividing cells that gradually differentiate into various mature functioning
cells that make up different body tissues
Embryonic (stem cells)
✓ Type of stem cell that are active during development in the uterus, and have the greatest
potential for multiplication.
Postnatal (stem cells)
✓ Type of stem cell that persist after birth.
Epithelial, Connective, Muscle, Nervous
✓ Four main types of tissue.
Epithelial (definition)
✓ This type of tissue covers surfaces, lines cavities, and form glands.

Connective (definition)
✓ This type of tissue supports and forms the framework of all parts of the body.
Muscle (definition)
✓ This type of tissue contracts and produces movement.
Nervous (definition)
✓ This type of tissue conducts nerve impulses.
Membrane(s)
✓ Epithelial and connective tissue often form sheets of tissues that line and cover organs
called ____.
Epithelium (Epithelial tissue)
✓ A barrier that separates the body's relatively constant internal environment from the
rapidly changing external environment.
Squamous, Cuboidal, Columnar
✓ Three main shapes of epithelial cells.
Squamous (cell shapes)
✓ A flat and irregular epithelial cell.
Cuboidal (cell shapes)

Columnar (cell shapes)
✓ A long and narrow epithelial cell.
Simple (arrangement)
✓ A cell arrangement where the cells form a single layer, functioning as a thin barrier
through which materials can pass fairly easily.
Stratified (arrangement)
✓ A cell arrangement where the cells form multiple layers. This arrangement is found in
areas subject to wear and tear that require protection.
Pseudostratified (arrangement)
✓ A cell arrangement where the cells seem to form multiple layers but really are not.
Transitional epithelium
✓ Tissue capable of varying a great deal in size and shape and return to it's original form
once the tension is relaxed. (Think of the urinary bladder).
Gland
✓ An organ or cell specialized to produce a substance that is sent out to other parts of the
body.
Exocrine gland(s)
✓ These glands produce secretions that are carried out of the body. Usually have ducts or
tubes to carry their secretions away from the glands.
Endocrine gland(s)
