Q

endocrine glands

A

release chemical substances (hormones) directly into the bloodstream or tissue of the body

17
Q

exocrine glands

A

release chemicals substances through ducts to outside the body or onto another surface within the body

18
Q

fibroblasts

A

makes extracellular matrix and collagen
- made of a ground substance consisting of polysaccharides, proteins, and fiber

19
Q

loose connective tissue

A

adipose, areolar, reticular

20
Q

dense connective tissue

A

regular dense, irregular dense, regular elastic, irregular elastic

21
Q

adipocytes

A

aka lipocytes and fat cells are the cells that primarily compose adipose tissue
- nucleus in membrane

22
Q

mast cells

A

type of white blood and contributes to homeostasis

23
Q

apocrine glands

A

lose small portions of cell bodies
- larger than merocrine and connect to hair follicle

24
Q

merocrine glands

A

secrete mucus, and serious fluids such as sweat
