connective

Answer 6

specialized cells in a noncellular matrix of fibers and ground substance

Question 7

lacunae

Answer 7

mineralized or gelatinous matrices these specialized cells will reside in small “pockets”

adipose tissue

Answer 13

form of connective tissue composed of specialized cells that deal with lipid droplets and is commonly referred to as fat

Question 14

adipocytes

Answer 14

harbor a single large lipid droplet

Question 15

muscle tissue

Answer 15

specialized for cellular contractility

Question 16

muscle tissue

Answer 16

specialized for cellular contractility

Question 17

striations

Answer 17

bundles of contractile proteins fill the cells, run in one direction, and are so intricately organized that they produce a visible pattern of light and dark bands
