transitional- ureter
Types of connective tissue and example

cancellous bone (spongy)
adipose
hyaline cartilage
Types of muscle tissue
skeletal, cardiac, smooth

Who were the two histologists who won the 1906 Noble Prize and what did they receive the prize for?
Golgi- invented silver staining technique used to visualize neural structure of brain
Cajal- correct interpretation of neural structure of brain based on Golgi’s work
Bichat
Brought pathology to tissue level
21 types of tissue, but no microscope
