This is how blood vessels and nerves pass through the hard matrix of bone.

What are canals? 

100

Best suited for areas subjected to friction like the surface of the skin or in the mouth.

What is stratified squamous?

100
Connective tissue is different that epithelial tissue because of this key characteristic.

What is vascularized, no free surface, includes fibers, not named based on cell shape? 

100

Characterized by striations, mononucleated, intercalated discs

What is cardiac muscle?

100

The big cell in nervous tissue is this...

What is a neuron?

200

Connective Tissue stores  energy and insulates the body against the cold. What type of connective  tissue is in charge of these functions and describe key characteristics of this tissue)

What is adipose. Big cells filled with a fat droplet and nucleus pushed to the side so it looks empty.

200

Moves substance across a mucous lined surface

What is ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium?

200

Characterized by collagen fibers arranged in parallel. Looks wavy.

What is dense fibrous tissue?

200

Characterized by tapered cells with one nucleus and no striations


What is smooth muscle?

200

The smaller support cells in this tissue are these...

What are neuroglia?

300

What is bone tissue?

300

Epithelial tissue does not have this characteristic.

What is vascularized (has blood vessels to supply nutrients)?

300

All three types of cartilage tissue have this in common.

This the difference between elastic and hyaline cartilage.

What are chondrocytes?(cartilage cells)

Hyaline is smooth and "glossy, or glassy" between chondrocytes, elastic is "hairy"  (elastic fibers) between chondrocytes.

300

This muscle can also be characterized by a branching pattern. 

What is cardiac muscle?

300

A=? C=? E=? G=? H=? F=?

A=Dendrites

C=Nucleus

E=Myelin sheath

G=Axon

F=Schwann cell

H=Axon terminal/synapse

400

What is hyaline cartilage?


400

This is why simple squamous is found in the alveoli (air sacs) of the lungs.

What is it allows diffusion easily because it is very thin (on one cell thick) and flat cells?

400

Connective tissue below your skin that provides  strength and resistance to multidirectional stretching.

What is loose connective tissue (or areolar tissue)

400

A scientist observes a sample under the  microscope.

It contains long cylindrical cells with  striation, and many nuclei located along the  edges of each cell.

What is Skeletal Muscle?

400

This the function of nervous tissue.

What is transmit electrochemical impulses?

500

Identify the tissue below. what is d,b, and c (1 thing), what is A, what is e?

Blood tissue

WBC

RBC

Plasma

500

Characterized by stacked cuboidal cells that can slide over one another which allows it do do this.

What is transitional tissue, distend (stretch)?

500

These cells make fibers

These cells make cartilage

The cells work in immune and inflammatory response

These cells "eat up" foreign invaders and junk

What are fibroblasts, chondrocytes, mast cells, macrophages?

500

A muscle cramp is a  sudden and involuntary  contraction of one or more  of your muscles.

If I have a cramp in my  calf muscle it is this type of muscle.

What is skeletal muscle?

500

Nervous tissue can be found in these locations.

What is brain, spinal cord, nerves?
