What are the four tissue types
Epithelial, muscle, nervous, connective
100
What are the two ways of organizing epithelial tissue?
Simple and stratified
100
What are the three types of muscle tissue?
Cardiac, skeletal, smooth
100
What are the three major types of Connective tissue?
Proper, fluid, and Supporting
100
What are the two main types of nervous tissue?
(Neuro)glial and neurons
200
What type of tissue?
Simple squamous epithelium
200
What are the 3 shapes of epithelial tissue and what do they look like?
squamous, columnar, cuboidal
200
What is an example of cardiac muscle?
heart
200
What are the three basic components of connective tissue?
Ground substance, specialized cells, and protein fibers
200
What is the function of neuroglial cells?
to support, nourish, and protect neurons
300
What type of tissue?
connective (adipose)
300
Where is epithelial tissue found?
Lines organs, part of skin, throat, mouth, nose, etc.
300
Example of skeletal muscle.
bicep, etc...
300
What are some of the body structures made up of connective tissue?
bone, cartilage, fat, tendon...
300
How does the specialized shape of neurons help its function?
Allows them to send signal over long distances quickly because the axons allow neurons to transmit electrical and chemical signals to other cells. Neurons receive these signals via rootlike extensions known as dendrites.
400
What type of tissue?
Muscle (skeletal)
400
Why is epithelial tissue good at regenerating quickly?
Located in high traffic areas....
