이 집합의 용어 (26)
Consist of a single layer of cells with an apical surface facing air or fluid.
Single layer of flat cells; functions as a barrier for gas and fluid exchange; located in air sacs of lungs and inner lining of blood vessels.
Single layer of cube-shaped cells; involved in absorption and secretion; found in kidney tubules and lower respiratory passages.
Single layer of rectangular cells with oval nuclei; functions in absorption and secretion of mucus; located in digestive tract and uterine tube.
Single layer of columnar cells appearing stratified due to nuclei position; has cilia for mucus movement; found in nasal cavity and upper respiratory passages.
Multiple layers of squamous cells; protects against abrasion and water loss; found in epidermis and mouth lining.
Keratinized has dead, flaky cells for water resistance; nonkeratinized remains moist and protects against chemicals; locations differ accordingly.
Two or more layers of cuboidal cells; provides some absorption and secretion; found in ducts of sweat glands.
Two or more layers of columnar cells; protects and aids absorption; located in ducts of glands and parts of male urethra.
Multiple layers of cells that change shape when stretched; provides protection and distensibility; found in urinary bladder and urethra.
Long, striated cells with multiple nuclei; voluntary control; responsible for body movement.
Striated cells with single nucleus and intercalated discs; involuntary control; found in heart walls.
Spindle-shaped, non-striated cells with single nucleus; involuntary control; found in walls of hollow organs.
Cells, fibers, and ground substance; includes loose and dense types like adipose, reticular, and collagenous tissues.
Supports and houses blood vessels; found deep to epidermis and lining body cavities.
Irregular resists stress in multiple directions; regular resists stress in one direction; locations include skin and tendons respectively.
Contains reticular fibers and leukocytes; forms internal structure of organs like lymph nodes and spleen.
Provides warmth, insulation, shock absorption, and energy reserve; surrounds heart and abdominal organs.
Includes cartilage (hyaline, fibrocartilage, elastic), bone, and blood.
Contains chondrocytes and ECM; supports and resists compression; found between bones and in respiratory tract.
Contains chondrocytes and collagen fibers; supports and resists compression; located in intervertebral discs.
Contains chondrocytes and elastic fibers; involved in producing and detecting sound; found in ears and epiglottis.
Supports, protects, provides leverage for movement, and stores calcium; contains osteocytes, osteoblasts, and ECM.
Contains plasma, erythrocytes, and leukocytes; transports nutrients, gases, wastes, and immune cells.
Includes cell body, nucleus, nucleolus, dendrites, and axon; neurons transmit signals.
Smaller cells supporting neurons; provide protection and nourishment.
