A

HOLOCRINE GLANDS

24
Q

The most common cell type, and is a fixed, star-shaped cell that secretes fibers and is large in size

A

FIBROBLAST

25
Q

Functions as scavenger cells and defend against infection.

A

MACROPHAGES (WANDERING)

26
Q

Functions as scavenger cells and defend against infection.

A

MACROPHAGES (WANDERING)

27
Q

Large cells located near blood vessels where they release heparin (anticoagulant) and histamine (promotes inflammation)

A

MAST CELLS

28
Q

White fibers, made of the protein collagen, add strength for holding body parts together

A

COLLAGENOUS FIBERS

29
Q

Yellow fibers, made of protein elastin, are stretchy and adds flexibility to certain types of connective tissues

A

ELASTIC FIBERS

30
Q

Thin collagenous fibers that form supportive networks in a variety of tissues

A

RETICULAR FIBER

31
Q

This type of tissue forms delicate, thin membranes throughout the body that bind body parts together such as asking and underlying organs. The majority of the cells are fibroblasts that are separated by a gel-like ground substance that contains collagenous and elastic fiber.

A

LOOSE CONNECTIVE TISSUE

32
Q

This is a loose connective tissue designed to store fat. It is found beneath the skin, around joints, padding the kidneys and other internal organs, and in certain abdominal membranes

A

ADIPOSE TISSUE

33
Q

This tissue soncists of densely packed collagenous fibers and is very strong but lacks good blood supply. It is found as part of tendons and ligaments

A

DENSE CONNECTIVE TISSUE

34
Q

A rigid connective tissue that provides a supportive framework for various structures. It lacks vascular system and also heals slowly

A

CARTILAGE

35
Q

The most common cartilage, white with abundant fine collagen fibers, is found at the end of bones, and supports respiratory passages

A

HYALINE CARTILAGE

36
Q

This cartilage has elastic fibers, provides a framework for the external ears and parts of the larynx.

A

ELASTIC CARTILAGE

37
Q

This cartilage has many collagenous fibers, a tough tissue that provides a schok-absorbing function in intervertebral disks and in the knees and pervic girdle.

A

FIBROCARTILAGE

38
Q

The most rigid connective tissue, with deposits of mineral salts and collagen within the matrix

A

BONE

39
Q

Internally supports the body, protects, forms muscle attachments, and is the site for blood cell formation

A

BONE

40
Q

Bone cells that lie within lacunae and are arranged in concentric circles (osteons) around osteonic canals interconnected by canaliculi.

A

OSTEOCYTES

41
Q

Composed of cells (red and white) suspended in a liquid matrix called plasma. It functions to transport substances throughout the body.

A

BLOOD

42
Q

True or false. Muscle cells, or fibers, cannot contract and is consist of 2 major types

A

FALSE. (Can contract and has 3 major types)

43
Q

Attached to bone and can be controlled by conscious effort (voluntary). The cells are long and cylindrical, striated, have many nuclei and contract from nervous impulse

A

SKELETAL MUSCLE TISSUE

44
Q

Lacks striation, uni-nucleate, and consists of spindle-shaped cells. This involuntary muscle is found in walls of internal organs, and in the digestive tract, blood vessels, and urinary bladder.

A

SMOOTH MUSCLE TISSUE

45
Q

This is found only in the heart and consists of branching fibers that are connected to each other with intercalated disks. This involuntary muscle has a single nucleus in each cell but appears striated

A

CARDIAC MUSCLE TISSUE

46
Q

These tissues are found in the brain, spinal cord, and nerves.

A

NERVOUS TISSUE

47
Q

Conducts nerve impulses

A

NEURONS

48
Q

Support and nourish the neurons

A

NEUROGLIA

49
Q

Composed of a layer of epithelial tissue and a layer and connective tissue. It covers body surfaces and lines body cavitie. Considered to be organs because these membranes are composed of more than one type of tisse

A

EPITHELIAL MEMBRANES

50
Q

What are the four main types of epithelial membranes?

A

SEROUS, MUCOUS, SYNOVIAL, ND CUTANEOUS

51
Q

Lines body cavities that lack openings to the outside. They line the thorax and abdomen and cover the organs within these cavities. It is made up of epithelium and loose connective tissue and secretes serous fluid that ACS as lubricant.

A

SEROUS MEMBRANES

52
Q

Lines the cavities and openings that lead to the outside of the body, including the oral and nasal cavities, and openings of the digestive, reproductive, respiratory and unrinary systems. They consists of epithelium and connective tissue with specialized cells that secrete mucus.

A

MUCOUS MEMBRANES

53
Q

Lines the joint cavities. These membranes consist of connective tissues, and they secrete lubricating synovial fluid

A

SYNOVIAL MEMBRANE

54
Q

Membrane that consists of the skin (also called the integument)

A

CUTANEOUS MEMBRANES
