Answer 1

Epithelial tissues

Question 2

Epithelium with only one layer of cells

Answer 2

Simple epithelium

Answer 4

Simple Cuboidal

Question 5

This is a layer of elongated cells. This may be found with cilia or flagella

Answer 5

Simple Columnar

Question 6

This is a type of epithelial tissue with columnal cells which appear to be arranged in more than one layer because they have been altered by pressure

Answer 10

Stratified Columnar

Question 11

This is a tissue with balloon-like cells subjected to contraction and stretching. The cells are observed as transitions between squamous and columnar cells

Answer 11

Transitional Epithelium

Question 12

These are tissues, function of which is to bind and support other tissues and organs together

Answer 12

Connective Tissues

Question 13

This tissue is composed of cells and interconnected fibrils

Answer 13

Reticular connective tissue

Question 14

These are cells and fibers observed to be occupying the intercellular spaces

Answer 14

Fibrous connective tissue

Question 15

These are white, wavy, unbranched bundle of fibers

Answer 15

Collagenous

Question 16

These are yellow, straight, or bent, branching fibers

Answer 16

Elastic

Question 17

This consists of large, rounded cells containing fats. The nuclei of these cells are observed at one side because the fat content is occupying almost the whole cytoplasm

Answer 17

Adipose

Question 18

Also called soft bone. Contains intercellular substance or matrix called chondrin with cells known as chondrocytes. The membrane covering with fibers is the perichondrium
