• it forms lining of various cavities and tubes in the body.

• specialized to form the covering or lining of all internal and external body surface.

• absorption, secretion, excretion, sensation and respiration.

A

EPITHELIAL TISSUES

31
Q

• They line the walls of blood vessels and air sacs of lungs.
• Also, they involve in physiological processes like osmosis and diffusion.

A

SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM

32
Q

• They line the walls of blood vessels and air sacs of lungs.

A

SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM

33
Q

• This usually has protective functions, including protection against microorganisms from invading underlying tissue and/or protection against water loss.

A

STRATEFIED SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM

34
Q

• The outer layer of your skin (epidermis) is made of what type of cells?

A

STRATEFIED SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM CELLS

35
Q

• It is a cube-like in apperance, meaning they have equal width, height, and depth.
• The major functions of this type of cell are - protection, secretion, and absorption.

A

CUBOIDAL EPITHELIAL TISSUES

36
Q

• It is a single layer which is tall and slender with oval-shaped nuclei located in the basal region, attached to the basement membrane.

A

37
Q

• It lines most organs of the digestive tract including the stomach, and intestines.

A

SIMPLE COLUMNAR EPITHELIUM

38
Q

• It hold parts of the body together, such as bones. It forms lining of various cavities and tubes in the body.
• Tissue that supports, protects, and gives structure to other tissues and organs in the body.
• It also stores fat, helps move nutrients and other substances between tissues and organs, and helps repair damaged tissue.

A

CONNECTIVE TISSUES

39
Q

• It is a fibrous connective tissue that attaches bone to bone, and usually serves to hold structures together and keep them stable.

A

LIGAMENTS

40
Q

• It is a fibrous connective tissue that attaches muscle to bone.

A

41
Q

• It is a strong, flexible connective tissue that protects your joints and bones.

A

CARTILAGE

42
Q

• It is regarded as specialized form of connective tissue because it originates in the bones and has some fibers.

A

BLOOD

43
Q

• Movement is the main function of this tissue.
• They have the ability to contract and this is what brings about the movement of the body.
• They also help to maintain body posture and position. Tissue that supports, protects, and gives structure to other tissues and organs of the body.

A

MUSCLE TISSUES

44
Q

• It refers to the muscle that’s not under our conscious control.
• This type of muscle is also called visceral or smooth muscle - produces slow, steady contraction that allow substances, such as food in the digestive tract, to move throughout the body.

A

INVOLUNTARY MUSCLE

45
Q

• It is made up of long fibers and they move our bones.
• We can control them and this type of muscle called skeletal muscle, since they are attached to the bones.

A

VOLUNTARY MUSCLE

46
Q

• It is a special type of muscle that make up our heart.
• It is an involuntary muscle that is stratified in appearance.

A

CARDIAC MUSCLE

47
Q

• It carried electrical and chemical signal and impulses from the brain and central nervous system to the periphery, and vice versa.
• These tissues are made up of specialized cells that are called neurons.

A

NERVE TISSUES

48
Q

• Brain, spinal cord and nerves are all composed of what kind of tissue?

A

NERVE TISSUES

49
Q

• It control our thoughts, memory and speech, movement of the arms and legs, and the function of many organs within our body.

A

BRAIN

50
Q

• It sends motor commands from the brain to the body, send sensory information from the body to the brain, and coordinate reflexes.

A

SPINAL CORD

51
Q

• They are like cables that carry electrical impulses between your brain and the rest of your body.

A
