gap junctions:

A

serves as an electrical and biochemical link between two cells

Q

synovial membranes

A

connective tissue only. lines space between two bones forming a joint. synovial fluid lubricates joints created by synoviocytes. synovial membranes lack an epithelial layer and are only made up of connective tissue.

A

connective tissue layer of mucous membranes

110
Q

Cutaneous membrane

A

or skin covers the outside of body away from cavities

111
Q

skeletal muscle

A

voluntary muscle, moves body at joints, multiple cells fuse to form long muscle fibers so it has multiple eccentric nuclei.

112
Q

Cardiac musle

A

found only in heart, no voluntary, striated appearance like skeletal, intercalated discs (formed by gap junctions & desomosomes.) , branched structures

113
Q

smooth muscle

A

single cell central nucleus, not under voluntary control arteries, gut tube

114

Q

Two main nervous cell types:
neurons:
