Tissues Flashcards

Simple Cuboidal Epithelium

Simple Squamous Epithelium

Dense Regular Connective Tissue-pink
Fibroblasts - purple

Nervous Tissue

Fibrocartilage
The collagen fibers are extremely dense, and the chondrocytes are relatively far apart.

Monocytes white

Simple Columnar Epithelium
Brush Border (micro-villi)
Hyaline Cartilage
Note the translucent matrix and the absence of prominent fibers.
Fibrous Cartilage
The collagen fibers are extremely dense, and the chondrocytes are relatively far apart.

Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium

Transitional Epithelium
and/or
Dense Irregular Connective Tissue

Simple Squamous Epithelial

Smooth Muscle Stomach 3 layers

Fibrous Cartilage
The collagen fibers are extremely dense, and the chondrocytes are relatively far apart.

Loose Connective Tissue pink
Fibroblasts are dark cells

Elastic Cartilage
The closely packed elastic fibers are visible between the chondrocytes.

Smooth Muscle Stomach 3 layers

Simple Columnar Epithelium
Villi increase the surface area

Nervous Tissue

Hyaline Cartilage
Note the translucent matrix and the absence of prominent fibers.
