Types Of Tissues

Question 1

Connective tissues

Answer 1

Areolar connective tissue
Adipose tissue
Fibrous connective tissue
Structure, Support, Defense, Transports materials and binds things together
Consists of fibers such as
Collagen fibers which are tough and Elastic fibers
The cells are separated by a ground substance which is made up of water,fluid and a mix of fluids called matrix

Question 2

Loose connective tissue

Answer 2

Composed of collagen and elastic fibers found in and around blood vessels and organs

Question 3

Fibrous connective tissues

Answer 3

Large amount of collagen and few cells
Found in tendons and ligaments

Question 4

Cartilage connective tissues

Answer 4

Found at the end of bones and in our bones and ears

Question 5

Adipose connective tissue

Answer 5

Body fat
It is used for insulation and to help store energy

Question 6

Blood connective tissue (special type)

Answer 6

Cells are separated by fluid

Question 7

Bones connective tissues

Answer 7

Bone to bone
Muscle to bone

Question 8

Epithelial Tissues

Answer 8

Like cavities and cover surface of vessels and organs

Question 9

Epithelial tissue functions

Answer 9

-Protection from sunlight and pathogens
-Secretions of sweat or hormones and even mucus
-Involved in absorption in exchange (for example oxygen in co2 are exchanged through epithelial tissues
-sensation how we touch and feel our world

Question 10

How are epithelia tissues classified ?

Answer 10

By shape and number

Question 11

Types of epithelial tissues ( Squamous ) and where they are found

Answer 11

Are like pancakes their width is greater than their height
Found in lungs and blood vessels

Question 12

Cuboidal epithelial tissue

Answer 12

Have a width and height that is the same as a cube
Found in important glands

Question 13

Columnar epithelial tissues

Answer 13

Like a column their height is greater than their width
Found is digestive tract and possibly the trachea
Divided into simple (one layer) and stratified (multi layered)

Question 14

Epithelial tissues line our what

Answer 14

Outside of our body and inside of our vessels and help keep us alive

Question 15

Nerve tissues

Answer 15

Found in our brain and spinal cord and peripheral systems
Many nerve tissues are made up of nerve cells which are called neurons (transmit electrical signals throughout the body)
Neurons allow our brain to communicate with your body

Question 16

Parts of a Neuron (cell body)

Answer 16

contains the nucleus and mitochondria and ribosomes

Question 17

Neurons (dendrites)

Answer 17

Look like tree branches
Receive electrical signals from other neurons

Question 18

Neurons (Axon)

Answer 18

Nerve signal passes down the exon
Exon has insulation called a myelin sheath
At the end of an axon you have an axon terminal that communicates with dendrites of other cells this allows electrical signals to pass and flow throughout the body

Question 19

Muscle tissue

Answer 19

One type of tissue found in the human body
Responsible for movement inside and outside of the body
Help with body posture and produce heat
Have the ability to contract and get shorter and then relax and return to original size

Question 20

Types of muscle tissues ?

Answer 20

Smooth
Cardiac
Skeletal

Question 21

Which muscles are striated

Answer 21

Cardiac and skeletal muscles (regularly repeated stripes which are formed by proteins called maira filaments which caused these stripes in the muscles

Question 22

Where are smooth muscles found ?

Answer 22

Digestive track and inside veins and arteries

Question 23

Which muscles are involuntary?

Answer 23

Smooth muscles (you don’t have to think about them in order for them to work) help with the movement of food, waste and blood throughout our body

Question 24

Skeletal muscles

Answer 24

Voluntary muscles that work with bones in order to help us move around

Question 25

How are skeletal muscles attached to bones ?

Answer 25

By tough connective tissues called tendons
We have over 600 different skeletal muscles

Question 26

Cardiac muscles

Answer 26

Our striated muscles found in the heart
Mixture between smooth and skeletal muscles
Help the heart pump blood all day

Question 27

3 types of muscle tissues are?

Answer 27

Smooth skeleton and cardiac
