This connective tissue is comprised of small round cells and platelets
What is blood smear?
This tissue type makes up the mammary glands of the breast area
What is Stratified Cuboidal Epithelium?
This tissue, most abundant of the cartilaginous connective tissues, is used for support in the nose, rib cartilage, and end of long bones
What is Hyaline Cartilage?
This tissue type has many parallel collagen fibers close together
What is Dense Regular Connective Tissue?
These tissues are found in the alveoli of the lungs
What is Simple Squamous Epithelium?
This most rigid connective tissue provides the framework for the body's structure and provides the attachment sites for muscle tissues
What is Compact Bone?
This epithelial tissue has a single layer of rectangular cells with nuclei in line with one another
What is Simple Columnar Epithelium?
This connective tissue surrounds skin, muscles, and viscera supporting the epithelia
What is Areolar Connective Tissue?
This connective tissue acts as a filter in the spleen and lymph nodes
What is Reticular Connective Tissue?
This tissue is a single layer of cells, roughly as big in width as in length, with rounded nuclei
What is Simple Cuboidal Epithelium?
This unusual type of tissue is mostly found in the dermis and fascia
What is Dense Irregular Connective Tissue?
This tissue type lines the respiratory tract and provides protection through goblet cells which secrete mucus to keep unwanted particles from entering the lungs
What is Pseudostratified Ciliated Columnar Epithelium?
This tissue is made of several layers of flattened cells
What is Stratified Squamous Epithelium?
This type of tissue comprises the intervertebral discs and knee menisci
What is Fibrocartilage?
This tissue, found in the urinary tract, resists the stretch of the bladder by expanding to flattened cells as the bladder fills and contracting to more rounded cells as the bladder is emptied
What is Transitional Epithelium?
