100
This is the study of tissues
What is histology
100
This is the two-part name for epithelial tissues
What is first part= number of layers, second part= shape of cell
100
The non-cellular component of connective tissue is known as this
What is matrix
100
Junctions between cardiac muscle cells are known as these
What is intercalated discs
100
This is the main cell in the nervous tissue
What is neuron
200
These are the four main tissue types
What is epithelial, nervous, muscular, and connective
200
This type of epithelial tissue is able to change shape depending on the amount of pressure exerted on it. It is found in the bladder lining.
What is transitional epithelium.
200
The major fixed type of cell is the
What is fibroblast
200
This muscle type is voluntary and is striated. The nuclei are pushed towards the edge of the cell
What is skeletal
200
This is one location of nervous tissue
What is brain, spinal cord, or peripheral nerves (need one to get the points)
300
This is the top surface of a tissue (found typically in epithelial)
What is apical
300
These are hair-like projections commonly found on columnar and pseudostratified columnar epithelium
What is cilia
300
This type of tissue deals with the storage of lipids.
What is adipose
300
This muscle type is non-striated and is involuntary.
What is smooth muscle
300
This type of membrane would include your skin
What is cutaneous
400
This is the characteristic of having no blood vessels present
What is avascularity
400
If there is more than one layer, it would be classified as this (one word)
What is stratified
400
These are the main cells found in bone tissue
What is osteocytes
400
This muscle type has intercalated discs and is striated. It is involuntary.
What is cardiac
400
These cells act as supporters of neurons
What is neuroglial cells
500
This is the basement membrane
What is extracellular component between the epithelium and underlying tissue
500
What is a gap junction?
What is pores allowing small molecules to pass between cells
500
This type of tissue is found in ligaments and tendons
What is dense connective tissue
500
This type of muscle tissue allows for movement
What is skeletal
500
This type of membrane lines passageways that do not open up to the outside
What is serous
