Answer 11

adipocytes

Answer 12

mesenchymal cell

Question 13

synthesize and store the brown pigment melanin

Answer 13

melanocytes

Question 14

stimulate inflammation after injury or infection

- eg: neutrophils & eosinophils

Answer 16

microhages

Answer 17

vocal cords & air passages

Question 18

collagenous fibers

Answer 18

tendons & ligaments

Question 19

reticular

Answer 19

liver
bone marrow
organ of the lymphatic system

Answer 22

elongated or discoid

Question 23

fibroblasts are proximately residents to

Answer 23

to collagen fibers

Question 24

adipose unilocular

Answer 24

white fat

Question 25

adipose multilocular

Answer 25

brown adipose tissue

Question 26

white adipose

Answer 26

• under the skin (hypodermis)
• buttocks, abdomen, thighs (external)
• omentum, mesentery

Question 27

multilocular is

Answer 27

2%-5% of newborn weight

Question 28

loose CT

Answer 28

more ground substance & cells and less fibers

eg: fat
- areolar, reticula adipose

Question 29

Dense CT

Answer 29

more fibers and less ground substance and cells

regular & irregular

the packing materials of the body

Answer 30

loose CT

Question 31

least specialized
elastic fibers
hold blood vessels and capillary bed
- eg: under the skin (subcataneous layers)

Answer 31

areolar

most common adipose tissue

- stores fat & slows heat loss

Answer 32

white fat

Question 33

most vascularized 
breakdown fat
produces heat (for newborn)

Answer 33

brown fat

Question 34

supportive fibers (stroma)
that supports the functional cells
reticular organs:
- spleen
