Cuboidal Epithelium
• Equal in height and width
• Secretory portions of glands or in tubules of kidney and tissue covering the ovary

Dense Fibrous Connective Tissue
• Regularly arranged
• Collagen and fibroblasts
• Found in tendons and ligaments
• Joins muscles to bones or bone to bone; provides protection and carries blood supply
![Page 13: Histology](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56815201550346895dc04138/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Dense Fibrous Connective Tissue
• Tendon • Irregular Dense CT

Loose Fibrous Connective Tissue
• Elastic: elastin, capsules of organs, holds organ together, lungs and vessels
• Areolar: loose weave, facial area beneath skin, collagen, support, reservoir fluids and salts
• Reticular: surrounds individual cells, acts as filler tissue and support; muscle fibers, liver, lymph nodes, and spleen
• Adipose: around organs, beneath skin, breast, cushions, insulates, and stores fat

Liquid Connective Tissue
• Blood: found in heart and vessels; functions in respiration, nutrition, excretion, body temperature, disease protection
• Lymph: found in tissue spaces between cells, cerebrospinal fluid; functions in bathing cells, nutrition, and protection from disease

Muscle Tissues
• Skeletal
• Smooth
• Cardiac
![Page 19: Histology](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56815201550346895dc04138/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Skeletal Muscle
• Attached to skeleton• Voluntary control• Fibers are elongate, cylindrical, with blunt ends• Striated• Multiple Nuclei per fiber• Nuclei are peripheral• Has most rapid contraction speed• Has least duration of contraction length
![Page 20: Histology](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56815201550346895dc04138/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Smooth Muscle
• Located in walls in stomach, arteries, and veins• Involuntary control• Fibers are elongate, spindle, with pointed ends• No striations• One nuclei per fiber• Nucleus is centrally located• Has slowest contraction speed• Has greatest duration of contraction
![Page 21: Histology](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56815201550346895dc04138/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Cardiac Muscle
• Located in walls of heart• Involuntary control• Fibers are elongate, cylindrical, fibers branch and
fuse• Has striations• One-two nuclei per fiber• Nuclei are located centrally• Has intermediate speed of contraction• Has intermediate duration of contraction

Nervous Tissue
• Neurons
• Glial cells
• Schwann cells
![Page 24: Histology](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56815201550346895dc04138/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Neurons
• 3 parts: soma, dendrites, and axon• Dendrites receive inputs • Axons conducts impulses away from the
cell body toward another neuron, muscle, or gland
• 3 types of neurons: motor (muscles), sensory (sense organs), and associative (relay from sensory to motor neurons)

Glial Cells
• Many different types, including astrocytes
• Supporting cells for neurons
• Smaller and more numerous than neurons
• Give rise to most tumors in CNS

Schwann Cells
• May be categorized with glial cells
• Supporting cells found outside CNS form sheaths
• Nearly all neurons 2 micrometers or greater in diameter are myelinated-covered with Schwann cells
