I am familiarlizing myself with anatomy and physiology right now to be ready for the LPN program when I start next fall. Below is a random outline I wrote for example. Should I study this in detail (go much further that what I outlined), or just in general. I have no clue how far the studies go in LPN.
TISSUES
Epithelial
--function
--cell junctions
----tight junction
----desmonsome
----gap junction
-Types of Epithelial tissues
--squamous
--cuboidal cells
--columnar cells
----simple
----stratified
----pseudostratified
----transitional
-Types of glands
--endocrine
--exocrine
----merocrine
----aprocrine
----holocrine
--unicellular
--multicellular (simple)
----tubular
----coiled tubular
----branched tubular
----branched acinar
--multicellular (compound)
----tubular
----acinar
----tubuloacinar
--types of secretions
----mucus
----serous
----seromucous
-types of membranes
--mucous membrane
----epithelium
----lamina propia
----muscularis mucosae
--serous membrane
