epithelial tissues
connective tissue
connective tissue 2
muscle and nervous tissue
100
squamous cells
provide protection, reduce friction, and sometimes perform secretion
100
areolar tissue
packing materials b/w skin and muscles = webbing that holds your skin and muscles together = fluid in b/w the big gaps
100
red blood cells
transporting oxygen throughout the entire body = NO NUCLEUS
100
skeletal
muscle connected to your skeleton (such as the muscles of your arms and legs). Voluntary control. MASSive cylinders of cells with hundreds of nuclei, super packed together "looks like rotting flesh or apple"
200
cuboidal cells
limited protection where secretion and absorption takes place
200
mast cells
found inside areolar cells
200
hyaline cartilage
hardest form of cartilage = white spaces (hard collagen) b/w them
200
cardiac
muscle of the heart - resembles skeletal muscle but possesses more of a ‘tree branch’ shape. Muscle is more spread out
300
columnar cells
protect, secrete, and absorb
300
macrophage cells
massive cell in areolar tissue = classic white blood cells that function as "roaming hunters"
300
elastic cartilage
bendy cartilage that bounces back when moved = made of elastic fibers
300
smooth
involuntary actions. Stomach, intestines, etc
400
simple epithelium
when only one layer of cells covers the basement membrane
400
adipose tissue
adipocytes = fat cells
400
fibrocartilage
stuff b/w spine vertebrae that protects against stress
400
neurons
cells that have branches on top with a long stem extending down. The ‘branches’ receive impulses and transmit them through the stem
500
stratified epithelium
when several layers of cells cover the basement membrane
500
reticular cells
scaffolding indise tissue
500
bone cells
full of calcium, highly vascularized = cells w/in bone are very small, radiating around a massive blood vessel
500
neuroglia
small cells around the neurons that help them function
