2
Q
connective tissue
A
- the supporting fabric everywhere on the daily
- contains cells that are separated by the matrix
3
Q
Why is blood connective tissue?

- because the cells are suspended in a liquid matrix (separated by plasma)
- because it connects various parts of the body
- circulative connective tissue
4

pericardium
A
fibrous sac lined with serous membrane that encloses the heart
12
Q

18
Q
Skeletal muscle
A
- work with tendon and bone to move body
- voluntary muscles

Q
Smooth muscle
A
- can be referred to as visceral muscle
- forms a wall with hollow organs
- aka visceral muscle
