Cards (19)

  • epithelial tissue- protection, secretion, absorption
  • connective tissue- binding, support, transport
  • muscular tissue- movement and locomotion
  • nervous tissue- control and coordination
  • shapes of types of epithelial- squamous, columnar, cuboidal
  • stratefied- two or more number of layers
  • pseudostratefied- fake layer that only columnar has
  • connective tissue- different tissues characterized by having dispersed cells and extracellular matrix
  • loose connective tissue (areolar)- found beneath the epithelial of the skin around blood vessels
  • dense connective tissue- flexible but more rigid, found in tendons and ligaments
  • tendons- muscles to bones
  • ligaments- bones to bones
  • supportive connective tissue- cartilage made up of chondrocytes cell that also contains chondrin
  • fluid connective tissue- to transport blood cells and nutrients, carries oxygen
  • smooth muscle- involuntary, non-straited
  • cardiac muscle- involuntary, straited
  • skeletal muscle- voluntary, straited, somatic nervous system
  • axon- send
  • dendrite- receive
