Chapter 4 Tissue Test
pseudostratified tissue has a distinctive appearance because
the nuclei of individual cells do not line up perfectly
what kind of epithelial is located in the bladder
transitional
which type of tissue is designed to stretch
transitional
elastic fibers are found where in the body
vocal cords
smooth muscle is mainly found in
walls of many organs
which part of the neuron transmits impulses to other cells
axon
what are the functions of cilia and microvilli
cilia- move dirt and mucus out from epithelial cells microvolli- increase surface area for nutrient absorption
this type of tissue is composed of scattered cells that form a matrix
connective
which tissue is most widespread and varied of all the tissues
connective
a tissue with more matrix than cell volume often specialized to support, bind together, and protect organs is called
connective tissue
tendons and ligaments consist of this type of tissue
connective tissue
the cells of this tissue are embedded in an extracellular matrix
connective tissue
which gland secrete their products into ducts that empty onto a body surface
exocrine
adipose tissue is also known as
fat
which type of cartilage makes up the discs in the vertebrae
fibrocartilage
glands are made up of this tissue
epithelial
which tissue is a continuous sheet of tightly packed cells and covers the body's surface, lines body cavities and many of its organs, and forms certain glands
epithelial tissue
which of the following statements about epithelial tissue is true
epithelial tissue has no blood supply and depends completely on the connective tissue beneath it to supply it with oxygen and nutrients
four main types of tissues
epithelial, connective, muscle, nervous
this tissue consists of elongated cell hat contact in response to stimulation
muscle tissue
three types of this tissue include skeletal, cardiac, and smooth
muscle tissue
stratified cuboidal
Two layers of cuboidal cells
Which tissue helps to insulate the body to conserve body heat?
adipose
Where is adipose tissue found?
beneath the skin
Chondrocytes are cells found in
cartilage
what structure connects bones to other bones
ligaments
stratified sqamous
looks stretched out
Which membranes line body surfaces that open directly to the body's exterior?
mucous
this tissue is found in the brain, spinal cord, and nerves
nervous tissue
tissues are groups of similar cells working together to
perform common functions
the type of healing occurs when damaged tissue heals and is replaced by new, functional tissue
regeneration
what type of epithelia do some cells stack on top f other cells but not touch the basement membrane
stratified
