______ are the fabric of the body?
Tissues
what are the four main kinds of tissues that compose the body's organs?
Epithelial Tissue- forms sheets that cover or line the body
Connective Tissue - provides structural and functional support
Muscle Tissue - contracts to produce movement
Nervous Tissue - senses, conducts, and processes information
epithelial cells are classified as ?
Squamous - flat and scalelike
Cuboidal - cube-shaped
Columnar - taller than they are wide
Transitional - varying shapes that can stretch
simple
a single layer of cells of the same shape
stratified
many layers of cells, named for the shape of cells in the outer layer
The Matrix is also called?
extracellular matrix (ECM)
what are the three muscle tissues?
cardiac muscle
skeletal muscle
Smooth muscle tissue
a neuron process that carries the impulse away from the cell body is called a
axon
which of the muscles are involuntary
smooth and cardiac
simple squamous epithelium
absorption of oxygen into the blood
simple squamous epithelium
absorption of oxygen into the blood
Psedostratified
lines the trachea
dense fibrous connective tissue
composes tendons
cartilage
chondrocytes
adipose
fat tissue
reticular
delicate webs of collagen fibers
skeletal muscle tissue
striated, volunatary
smooth muscle tissue
found in the walls of the intestine
cardiac muscle tissue
intercalated disks
Nevrous tissue
glia cells
blood tissue contains?
red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets
two main types of fiber?
collagen and elastin
carry nerve impulse toward the body
dendrites
which if the following is not a principal type of tissue?
cardiac
stratified squamous epithelial cells are found in the?
skin
This type of epithelial tissue is found in the air sacs of the lungs?
simple squamous
This type of epithelial tissue has adapted to a secretory function and forms clusters of cells called glands
cuboidal epithelium
which of the following is not a connective tissue?
cardiac
main function of muscle tissue?
movement
which of the following contains intercalated disks?
cardiac muscle
what is the conducting unit of the nerve tissue?
neuron
this type of epithelial tissue would be found in the wall of the urinary bladder
stratified transitional
This type of epithelial tissue would be found lining the inner surface of the stomach and intestine
Simple columnar
These two types of tissues have the greatest capacity to regenerate
Epithelial and connective
Hematopoietic tissue can be found in
bone marrow, the spleen, lymph nodes
This is the most widely distributed of all connective tissue.
This type of epithelial tissue would be found lining the inner surface of the stomach and intestine.
Simple columnar
