Q

open spaces among the cell is called

A

goblet cells

21
Q

cell touches a gluelike basement _______ that lies under the epithelial tissue

A

basement membrane

22
Q

why is pseudostratified name is false

A

because several cell layer appears to be thick but its bot

23
Q

found in the area that is subjected to stress and must be able to stretch.
-stretches up to 10 layers of different shapes

A

stratified transitional epithelium

24
Q

cell biologist

A

cytologist

25
Q

connective tissue proper

A

fibrous

26
Q
  • widely distributed of all connective tissue types
  • glue embedded in loose matrix that keeps the organs together
  • consist of fibers that are made of collagen
A

loose fibrous connective tissue

27
Q

fibrous material that helps the bind the skin muscles, bones and other organs together

A

fascia

28
Q
  • fat
  • cells contain triglyceride vesicles
  • white and brown fat
  • when lipids store tissue
  • connective tissue
A

adipose connective tissue

29
Q

clear lipids- storage vesicles that scatter light to give ordinary adipose tissue a whitish appearance

  • area under skin ; padding at various points
  • protection, insulation support, nutrient reserve, regulation
A

white fat - adipose ( connective tissue)(

30
Q

burns its fuel when the body is cold to produce heat.

  • heat production, regulation
  • cells contain triglyceride vesicles
  • fat of neck and tarso
A

brown fat- adipose ( connective tissue)

31
Q

thin delicate webs of collagen fibers

  • bone marrow, spleen, bone cavities
  • supports blood - producing cells and immune cells
A

reticular “ netlike” ( connective)

32
Q

thick bundles of strong white collagens fibers that are packed together

  • tendons, ligaments, deep layer of skin, scar tissue
  • flexible but strong support
A

dense fibrous - regular and irregular (connective)

33
Q

has its collagen fiber bundles arrangedr in a roughly parallel line

  • doesnt stretch
  • provide great strength and flexibity
  • makes up tendons
A

regular dense fibrous (connective)

34
Q

collagen arranged in a chaotic swirl of tangled bundles.
- forms the tough sheets in the deepest layer of skin
-

A

irregular dense fibrous ( connective)

35
Q

solid form of the bone that makes up the outer wall of the bone in the skeleton is called

A

compact bone (con)

36
Q

not encrusted with hard minerals

- the consistency of a of a firm plastic or gel

A

cartilage(con)

37
Q

cartilage cell

- located in many tiny spaces distributed throughout the matrix giving tissue an appearance of swiss cheese

A

chondrocytes (con)

38
Q

has a moderate amount of collagen in its gel matrix, giving it a translucent, glass-like appearance.

  • “hyaline” glassy
  • most common type of cartilage in the body
  • found in the support rings of the respiratory tubes and covering the ends of the bone that forms joints
A

hyaline cartilage (con)

39
Q

strongest and most durable type of cartilage

- serves as a shock absorber between adjacent vertebrae and knee joint

A

fibrocartilage (c0n)

40
Q

contains few collagen fibers but large numbers of very fine elastic fibers that give the matix material high degree of flexibility
- found in external ear, voice box, larynx

A

elastic cartilage ( con.)

41
Q

most unusual form of connective tissue

- transportation and protective function

A

blood tissue (con)

42
Q

bloodlike connective tissue found in the red marrow cavities of bones and organs such as the spleen, tonsils , lymph nodes
- responible for formation of the blolod cells as our defense system

A

hematopoietic tissue (con)

43
Q
  • movement specialist of the body
  • higher degree of contraction than any tissue
  • provide stability and even body heat
A

muscle tissue

44
Q

voluntary

  • has many cross striations and many nuclei per cell
  • attached to bone
A

skeletal muscle

45
Q

forms the walls of the heart and the regular but involuntary contractions of cardiac muscle produce the heartbeat
- muscle fibers have faint cross striation and thicker dark bands called an intercalated disk

A

cardiac muscle tissue

46
Q

involuntary b/c it’s not under conscious or willful control

  • helps form cell wall of blood vessels and organs
  • regulate diameter of vessels
  • move substances along the respective tracts
  • one nucleus and no striations
A

smooth muscle tissue
