PHYSIOLOGY STUDY GUIDE—TISSUES—MR. ULTAN-THOMAS 1. Distinguish between the following types of epithelial membranes: endothelium cutaneous mucous serous 2. Which structural type of epithelial tissue… …lines the esophagus? …forms the outer layer of skin? …forms the walls of the alveoli (air sacs) of the lungs? …lines the small intestine? 3. What are the functions of the cilia or microvilli found on some epithelia? 4. Describe the structure of a basement membrane. 5. List four functions of epithelial tissues. 6. Contrast the two types of glandular epithelia. 7. Compare and contrast the microstructures and functions of cardiac and skeletal muscle fibers. 8. Compare and contrast the microstructures and functions of cardiac and skeletal muscle fibers. 9. Where is smooth muscle tissue found? Why is it called “smooth”? How does it differ functionally from cardiac and skeletal muscle? 10. What are the three regions of a neuron? What are the functions of these regions? 11. Describe the functions of the following glial cells: astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes, and Schwann cells. 12. What are the four major categories of connective tissues? What is the common stem cell line for all connective tissues? 13. Describe the composition of each of the three components of all connective tissues. 14. What kinds of tissues arise from each of the three embryonic germ (tissue) layers? What does “germ” mean, in the sense used here? 15. Trace each of these mature connective tissue cell types back to its origin in mesenchyme: eosinophil erythrocyte adipose (fat) hyaline cartilage ligament osteocyte
