tissue quiz Flashcards
surrounded by protective glial cells
nervous
composed capillaries
simple squamous
found in kidneys and in main glands
simple cuboidal
rigid, hard, ossified internal protections within the body
Bone
muscle under our control
skeletal
external ear and vocal cords
elastic cartilage
protection and insulation of organs
adipose
function is to block diffusion
transitional epithelium
electrochemical communication around the body
nervous
greatest quantity of connective tissue in body
loose connective/ areolar
transport materials around the body
blood
binds organs to organs and is a space filler
loose connective/ areolar
most flexible type of cartilage
elastic cartilage
found along the gastrointestinal tract
simple columnar
accumulated/ grouped immune phage cells
reticuloendothelial
complete involuntary movement in body
smooth muscle
rapid diffusion and filtration
simple squamous
contains intercalated disc
cardiac muscle
straight epithelial tissue found in digestive tract
simple columnar
ciliated epithelial found in the air passages and reproductive
pseudostratified columnar
in intervertebral discs
fibrocartilage
striated tissue
skeletal/ cardiac muscle
function: secretion and absorption
simple columnar and simple cuboidal
protection of the body as a whole (skin and openings)
stratified squamous
epithelial found in the bladder
transitional epithelium
covers the ends of all joints
hyaline cartilage
comprise tendons and ligaments
fibrous
part of epithelial tissue where functioning takes place
parenchyma
sticky protein that separates epithelium from underlying connective tissue
basement membrane
space that is outside the epithelial tissue where it’s exposed to the outside world
lumen
special structure that allows signals to be passed through cardiac tissue
intercalated discs
category of tissue built on abundant intracellular matrix
connective tissue
type of fiber that is particularly strong but not very flexible in the intracellular matrix
collagenous
type of cell that secrete various types of fibers in connective tissue
fibroblast
function of a goblet cell
mucus
function of cilia
helps w movement of particles
