Compound exocrine gland

31
Q

It is a tissue which is found everywhere in the body and includes the most abundant and widely distributed tissues.

A

Connective tissue

32
Q

What are the three major components of extracellular matrix?

A

Fibers
Ground substance
Fluid

33
Q

What are the three types of fibers?

A

Collagen (white) fibers
Elastic (yellow) fibers
Reticular fibers

34
Q

It is one of the major component of extracellular matrix which is mostly water along with adhesion proteins and polysaccharide molecules.

A

Ground substance

35
Q

It is the most widely distributed connective tissue; it is soft, pliable tissue like “cobwebs”.

A

Areolar tissue

36
Q

It is a type of loose connective tissue in which matrix is an areolar tissue in which fat globules predominate.

A

Adipose tissue

37
Q

It is a type of loose connective tissue which delicate network of interwoven fibers.

A

Reticular connective tissue

38
Q

This tissue contains a main matrix element which is collagen fiber.

A

Dense connective tissue

39
Q

These are cells that make fibers.

A

A

Tendons

41
Q

It attached bone to bone at joints

A

Ligaments

42
Q

It is the lower layers of the skin

A

Dermis

Q

It is the most common type of cartilage and composed of abundant collagen fibers and rubbery matrix

A

Hyaline cartilage

44
Q

Where is hyaline cartilage located?

A

Larynx

Entire fetal a skeleton prior to birth

45
Q

It is a type of supporting connective tissue which is highly compressible and forms cushion-like disks between vertebrae.

A

Fibrocartilage

46
Q

It is a type of supporting connective tissue which provides elasticity and supports the external ear.

A

Elastic cartilage

47
Q

It is a type of supporting connective tissue and also called as osseous tissue.

A

Blood cells are surrounded by fluid matrix called what?

A

Blood plasma

50
Q

It functions as the transport vehicle for materials

A

Blood

51

What are the three types of muscle tissue?

A

Skeletal muscle
Smooth muscle
Cardiac muscle

52
Q

A type of muscle tissue that contracts to pull on bone or skin hon produces gross body movements and facial expressions.

A

Skeletal muscle

55
Q

Striated, one nucleus per cell, branch and connected to one another by intercalated discs are characteristics of what muscle cells?

A

Cardiac muscle cells
