Q

Columnar cells, but its basal cells vary in size and shape

A

Stratified columnar epithelium

17
Q

Highly modified, stratified squamous epithelium that forms the lining of only a few organs

A

Transitional epithelium

18
Q

Gland consists of one or more cells that make and secrete a particular product

A

Glandular epithelium

19
Q

Two major types of glands develop from epithelial sheets

A

Endocrine, Exocrine

20
Q

Retain their ducts, and their secretions exit through the ducts to the epithelial surface

A

Exocrine Gland

21
Q

Lost their ducts; thus they are often called ductless glands. Their secretion diffuse directly into the blood vessels that weave through the glands.

A

Endocrine Gland

22
Q

Major connective tissue

A

Bone, Cartilage, Dense Connective Tissue, Loose Connective tissue, Blood

23
Q

Composed of osteocytes

A

Bone

24
Q

Less hard and more flexible than bone. Its major cell type is chondrocytes

A

Cartilage

25
Q

Dense fibrous tissue, collagen fibers are the main matrix element

A

Dense connective tissue

26
Q

Considered a connective tissue because it consists of blood cells surrounded by a nonliving, fluid matrix called blood plasma.

A

Blood or Vascular Tissue

27
Q

Softer and have more cells and fewer fibers than any other connective tissues type except blood

A

Loose connective tissue

28
Q

Types of loose connective tissues

A

Areolar, Adipose, Reticular
