Clast

29
Q
  • Skin
  • More ground substance
  • Provides support and helps to protect organs, muscles, and many other tissues
  • Contains all three types of fibers
A

Areolar Connective Tissue

30
Q
  • Heart, stomach, liver
  • Globular area
  • Nucleus is at the side
  • Extends throughout the body
  • Known as the body fats
A

Adipose Tissue

31
Q
  • Aorta
  • Consists of fibroblasts and densely compacted parallel bundles of fibers –mainly elastic fibers
  • Provides elasticity and resilience to the tissues
A

Elastic Connective Tissue

32
Q
  • Tendon
  • Uniform alignment of fibers
  • Mainly made up of collagen fiber
  • Collagen fibers are packed together
  • Allows tissue to return to its original length after stretching
A

Dense Regular Connective Tissue

33
Q
  • Skin (dermis)
  • A 3-dimensional structure that can withstand significant force from different directions
A

Dense Irregular Connective Tissue

34
Q
  • Joints, respiratory tract
  • White semi-solid orientation cell
  • Helps your bones move smoothly past each other in your joints
A

Hyaline Cartilage

35
Q
  • Supports parts of your body that need to bend and move to function
  • Most flexible
  • mainly in the larynx, the external part of the ear (pinna), and the tube leading from the middle part of the ear to the throat (eustachian or auditory tube)
A

Elastic Cartilage

36
Q
  • Predominantly in the intervertebral disks of the spine and at the insertions of ligaments and tendons.
  • Act as a cushion within joints, where it helps manage compression forces and reduces stress placed on joints
A

Fibrocartilage

37
Q
  • Support and protection of soft tissues, calcium, and phosphate storage and harboring of bone marrow
  • Production of blood cells
A

Bone

38
Q
  • A fluid connective tissue
  • Deliver oxygen and nutrients to various cells and tissues of the body
A

Blood Cell

39
Q
  • Multinucleated (peripherally located)
  • Striation
  • Voluntary
  • Very long, cylindrical cells
  • Attached to bones
  • Contract to produce movement, sustain body posture and position, maintain body temperature, store nutrients, and stabilize joints
A

Skeletal Muscle

40
Q
  • Uninucleate
  • 1 fiber
  • Striated
  • Cylindrical cells
  • In the heart
  • Under involuntary control
  • Responsible for the contractility of the heart and, therefore, the pumping action
A

Cardiac Muscle

41
Q
  • Fusiform shape
  • 1 fiber / uninucleate
  • Involuntary control
  • In the walls of hollow organs, blood vessels, eyes, glands, skin
  • Spindle shape
  • Helps with digestion and nutrient collection
  • Exists throughout the urinary system, where it functions to help rid the body of toxins and works in electrolyte balance
A

Smooth Muscle

42
Q
  • Fundamental unit of the brain
  • Responsible for receiving sensory input from the external world
  • For sending motor commands to our muscles
  • For transforming and relaying the electrical signals at every step in between.
A

Neuron
