Tissues
The tissue that contains neurons and neuroglia.
Nervous tissue
These cells are found in cartilage.
Chondrocyte

smooth
The most common type of tissue in our bodies that makes up our skin, organs, lining of our digestive system, and glands.
Epithelial tissue
These cells are found in connective tissue and produce collagen and elastin fibers.
fibroblasts
Which tissue helps protect and insulate organs as well as stores energy?
Adipose tissue
Means multiple layers.

Endocrine Glands
Muscle tissue which is voluntary and makes up the muscles that that provide movement in our bodies?
Skeletal
These cells make up a tissue that is responsible for sending signals all over our bodies to control movement, receive sensation, and all functions of our organs. They consist of an axon, dendrites, and a body.

This type of epithelial tissue is only found one place in the body, in the bladder.
transitional
This tissue makes up tendons and ligaments.
