Which tissue allows for glandular secretions?
Epithelial Tissue
What are reactive glandular cells in a pap smear?
epithelial cells
What tissues makes the glandular tissue in animals?
apithelial tissues
How are glandular epithelium formed?
Glandular epithelium is formed through a process called glandular differentiation, where epithelial cells undergo specialized changes to become glandular cells. This differentiation involves the expression of specific genes that regulate the formation and function of glands within the epithelial tissue. The glandular epithelium is characterized by the presence of secretory cells that produce and release substances such as hormones, enzymes, or mucus.
What is the medical term meaning glandular tumor of epithelial tissue of the lung?
adenocarcincoma
What are the two types of glandular epithelial tissue?
endocrine (where the secretions are put directly into the bloodstream) or exocrine (where the secretions are carried to the epithelial surfaces)
Does connective tissue cover the body and line the body cavities?
No, epithelial tissue covers of free body surfaces and forms glandular tissue.
What kind of tissue produces enzymes in general?
Glandular epithelial tissue is responsible for producing enzymes. This type of tissue is specialized for secretion and can be found in various glands throughout the body, such as the salivary glands, pancreas, and stomach lining. Glandular epithelial cells synthesize and release enzymes that aid in digestion, metabolism, and other physiological processes.
What types of cells either form a barrier that controls passage of molecules or forms glands?
Epithelial cells form barriers that control the passage of molecules through tissues and organs. They can also form glandular cells that secrete substances such as hormones or enzymes.
Are endocrine and exocrine glands classified as epithelium because they develop from epithelial membranes?
Yes, endocrine and exocrine glands are classified as epithelium because they are derived from epithelial cells during development. These glands maintain an epithelial lining even after they have differentiated into glandular tissue.
Why are the cells of epithelial tissue tightly placed against each other?
It is because cells of epithelial tissues are found covering numerous internal and external surfaces of the body and may also be modified to form glandular structures.
What is an adenocarcinoma?
a malignant tumor originating in the epithelial cells of glandular tissue and forming in glandular structures cancer dirived form glandular tissue or in which the tumor cells form recognizable glandular structures
