connective tissue proper
cartilage
bone tissue
blood

45

A

cell

53
Q

blood cells

A

erythrocytes or red blood cells (RBC)
leukocytes or white blood cells (WBC)
platelets

54
Q

Connective tissue proper: loose connective tissue, areolar

A

Wraps and cushions
organs; forms lamina propria of mucous
membranes

55
Q

Connective tissue proper: loose connective tissue, adipose

A

Closely packed adipocytes, or fat cells; insulates against
heat loss; under skin in
subcutaneous tissue - within
abdomen; in breasts

56
Q

Connective tissue proper: loose connective tissue, reticular

A

Fibers form a soft
internal skeleton (stroma); Lymphoid organs (lymph nodes, bone marrow, and spleen)

57
Q

Connective tissue proper: dense connective tissue, dense regular

A

Primarily parallel
collagen fibers; Tendons, most ligaments

58
Q

Connective tissue proper: dense connective tissue, dense irregular

A

Primarily
irregularly arranged collagen fibers; provides structural strength; dermis of the skin; submucosa of
digestive tract

59
Q

Connective tissue proper: dense connective tissue, elastic

A

Allows tissue to recoil after stretching; Walls of large
arteries

60
Q

Cartilage: hyaline

A

Supports and
reinforces; overs the
ends of long bones in joint
cavities; forms costal cartilages of the ribs; cartilages of the nose, trachea, and larynx.

61
Q

Cartilage: elastic

A

Supports the external ear (pinna); epiglottis

62
Q

Cartilage: fibrocartilage

A

Thick collagen fibers
predominate; Intervertebral discs; pubic symphysis; discs of knee joint

63
Q

Others: bone (osseous tissue)

A

Stores calcium and
other minerals and fat; marrow inside bones is the site for blood cell formation
(hematopoiesis)

64
Q

Connective tissue: blood

A

Transport respiratory gases, nutrients, wastes, and other substances; Contained within blood vessels

65
Q

Skeletal muscle

A

Voluntary movement; in skeletal muscles attached to bones or occasionally to skin; striations

66
Q

Cardiac muscle

A

Generally uninucleate
cells that interdigitate at
specialized junctions
(intercalated discs), branching; As it contracts,
it propels blood into the
circulation; walls of heart

67
Q

Smooth muscle

A

Involuntary
control; Mostly in the walls
of hollow organs

68
Q

Nervous tissue

A

Neurons are branching cells; Neurons transmit
electrical signals from sensory receptors and to effectors (muscles and glands; Brain, spinal
cord, and nerves

69
Q

Classes of membranes

A

cutaneous
mucous
serous

70
Q

Cutaneous membrane

A

The cutaneous membrane (the skin) covers the body surface

71
Q

Mucous membranes

A

Mucous membranes line body cavities that are open to the exterior (digestive organs)

72
Q

Serous membranes

A

Serous membranes line body cavities
that are closed to the exterior (lungs)
