Epithelial Tissue
Epithelial tissue is anchored by a ____________ _______________ on one side and is free on the other side.
What is basement membrane?
These cells support neurons by providing nutrients.
What are neuroglia?
These are the three types of muscle tissue.
What are skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscle?
This is the connective tissue structure that supports the body, protects vital parts in cranial & thoracic cavities, serves as an attachment for muscles, and contains red marrow important for forming red blood cells.
What is bone?
This kind of feedback restores the body back to normal after a stimulus.
What is negative?
Are epithelial cells typically closely or loosely packed?
What is closely packed?
This part of the neuron contains the nucleus.
What is the cell body?
This type of muscle makes up the majority of the heart.
What is cardiac muscle?
This type of connective tissue lacks a direct blood supply so it heals slowly.
What is cartilage?
This organ is in the cranial cavity.
What is the brain?
This type of epithelial cells make up the lining of the kidney tubules, ducts of glands, and surface of ovaries?
What are simple cuboidal epithelial cells?
Nerves are bundles of ________ traveling to and from the brain and spinal cord.
What are axons?
This type of muscle is responsible for the involuntary movements of the body's internal organs.
What is smooth muscle?
These are the two types of bone tissue.
What are compact and spongy?
This kind of feedback causes a change in the same direction.
What is positive?
Which of the following is the function of the epithelial tissue?
a. Supports body parts
b. Covers body parts
c. Binds body parts together
d. All of the above
What is b - covers body parts?
This structure of a neuron conducts nerve impulses away from the cell body.
What is the axon?
Which type of muscle tissue has cells with many nuclei?
What is skeletal muscle?
This types of connective tissue connects bone to bone.
What is a ligament?
This is the name for epithelium that has many layers of squashed cells.
What is stratified squamous?
When talking about epithelial tissue ____________ refers to tissues that have many layers, where as ________________ refers to tissues that are just a single layer
What is stratified; simple.
___________ carry information toward the cell body on a neuron.
What are dendrites?
This type of muscle is not visibly striated and has a centrally located nucleus.
What is smooth muscle?
Blood is this type of connective tissue.
What is fluid?
This is the main pigment in skin that gives it its color as well as protects the skin from the damaging effects of UV light.
What is melanin?
