Epithelial Tissue
This type of tissue covers body surfaces and lines internal organs.
What is epithelial tissue?
This tissue connects, supports, and binds other tissues together
What is connective tissue?
This tissue is responsible for movement
What is muscle tissue?
The two main types of cells in nervous tissue
What are neurons and neuroglia?
These helper cells in the nervous system support, protect, nourish neurons.
What are the neuroglia or glia cells?
Double Jeopardy!!!!!
The thin, flat cells found in the lining of blood vessels and lungs
What is simple squamous epithelium?
The strong, dense tissue that connects muscles to bones
What is a tendon?
The type of muscle found in the heart
What is the cardiac muscle?
The part of the neuron that receives signals
What is the dendrite?
This type of neuron carries information from the sense organs like the eyes and skin to the brain and spinal cord
What is the sensory neuron?
Epithelial tissue with multiple layers of flat cells, such as skin
What is stratified squamous epithelium?
The type of connective tissue that provides structure and flexibility to the ear
What is cartilage?
The type of muscle that moves bones and is under voluntary control
What is skeletal muscle?
The part of the neuron that sends signals away from the cell body
What is the axon?
Double Jeopardy!!!
These neurons send signals from the brain and spinal cord to muscles and glands, causing movements or action
What are the motor neurons?
Epithelial tissue that appears layered but is not truly layered
What is pseudostratified epithelium?
Double Jeopardy!!!!
The strong connective tissue that connects bones to bones _____________
What are ligaments?
The type of muscle found in organs like the stomach and intestines and works involuntary
What is the smooth muscle?
The space between two neurons where communication occurs
What is the synapse?
This thin smooth layer lines the inside of the heart. (the inner most layer)
What is the endocardium?
These cube-shaped epithelial cells are specialized for secretion and absorption
What are cuboidal cells?
What part of the body might need a strong connective tissue
What are the knees, elbows, skin and muscles
Double Jeopardy!!!
The stripes you see in muscles are called what?
What are striations?
In the neuron, this part of the cell contains the nucleus and controls its activities
What is the cell body? or soma
Found in the heart, this double-layered membrane surrounds and protects the heart
