A

Calcified

37
Q

3 types of muscle tissue

A

Skeletal, cardiac, smooth

38
Q

Muscle tissue

Voluntary

40
Q

Skeletal muscle features

A

Distinct fibers, multiple nuclei per fiber, striated (lines of dense and less dense areas), separate fibers

41
Q

Skeletal muscle location

A

Attach to skin or bone

42
Q

Cardiac muscles

A

Branching fibers, involuntary

43
Q

Cardiac muscles intercalated discs

A

Where the cells join, desmosomes (strength), gap junctions

44
Q

Smooth muscle

A

Involuntary, propels substances or objects along passageway

45
Q

Smooth muscle location & example

A

Walls of hollow organs

46

47
Q

Cutaneous membrane

A

Outside (skin), keratinized

48
Q

Serous epithelia
