epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscular tissue, nervous tissue
epithelial tissue covers what?
body surfaces and lines body cavities
connective tissue does what?
binds and supports body parts
muscular tissue does what?
moves the body, helps the heart beat, lines internal organs
nervous tissue does what?

list the functions of epithelial tissue
(1) protection; drying out, pathogens, secretion; (2) secretes mucus (goblet cells), (3) filtration; cilia, (4) absorption; kidneys absorb, (5) excretion; sweat
describe the process of naming the tissue (pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelial tissue)
the 1st word refers to how many layers, the 2nd word will be ciliated if it is (if its not nothing is put), the 3rd word lets us know the shape of cells, the 4th word would be epithelial tissue

simple
multiple layers of epithelial tissue is?
stratified
a false layer of epithelial tissue is?
pseudostratified
3 types of shapes for epithelial tissue?
squamous, cuboidal, columnar
list the functions for connective tissues
binds organs together; provides support and protection; fills spaces; produces blood cells; stores fat
what does loose fibrous connective tissue do?

connect bone to muscle
functions for adipose tissues
energy storage; insulation; protection
cartilage functions?
cells lie in a flexible matrix called a lacunae
a bone is?
the most rigid tissue
osteons are?
found throughout the bone tissue
protective outer covering on a bone is?
periosteum
osteoclast?
break down bone cells
osteoblast?
build up bone cells
osteoporosis?
brittle bone
functions of blood?
delivers oxygen and nutrients to cells; removes carbon dioxide and waste; temperature regulation; clotting prevents fluid loss; protects from disease; formed in red bone marrow
