nerve

Question 2

epithelial

Answer 2

protect from drying out, bacteria, injury

enclosing and separating
connecting tissues together
supporting and moving
storing
cushioning and insulating
protecting

Question 6

dense (fibers run uniformly)
cartilage
bone

Question 8

cartilage

Answer 8

hyaline (not very flexible, hard, covers ends of long bones)
fibro- (hard, a little flexible)
elastic (flexible, holds shape)

Question 9

Answer 14

neuron carries electrical impulse

neurological

Question 15

glands

Answer 15

group of cells that produce a substance

single cell or multicellular structure that secrets substances into the blood, cavity, or the surface

Question 16

tendons

Answer 16

attach muscle to bone

Question 17

ligaments

Answer 17

attach bone to bone

Question 18

histology

Answer 18

study of different cells and tissues

Question 19

exocrine

Answer 19

duct, secrets outside of the organ

gland that secrets to a surface or outward through a duct

Question 20

endocrine

Answer 20

no duct, release substances into the blood
secretes internally
usually in circulatory system

Question 21

Cell connections

Answer 21

tight junction
gap junctions
Desmosome
Hemidesmosome

Question 22

Tight Junction

Answer 22

They limit the passage of molecules and ions through space between cells

Question 23

Gap junctions

Answer 23

Allows things to pass through cells

Question 24

Desmosome

Answer 24

point of adhesion between two cells

Question 25

hemidesmosome

Answer 25

half a desmosome that occurs on the basal surface of epithelial cells that rest on the basement membrane

mucous
serous
cutaneous
Synovial
periosteum

joints

Question 31

periosteum

Answer 31

covers the bones

Question 32

glial cells

Answer 32

cells of the nervous system other than neurons play a support role in the nervous system (also called neuroglia)
