Q

Clearer looking ground substance of cartilage

A

Hyaline Cartilage

17
Q

It is densely layered collagen fibers. More flattened and organized cell rows.

A

Fibrocartilage

18
Q

Visible elastic fibers in matrix

A

Elastic Cartilage

19
Q

Most specialized structural connective tissues, and the strongest of them. It is responsible for storing calcium that can be withdrawn by the body as blood calcium levels drop. It also produce red blood cells in the bone marrow.

20
Q

Despite its fluid nature __________ is classified as a type of connective tissue.

21
Q

Cellular Components of Blood

A

Red Blood Cell
White Blood Cell
Platelets

22
Q

Responsible for locomotion and for the movements of the various parts of the body with respect to one another.

A

Muscle Tissues

23
Q

Types of Muscle Tissues

A

Smooth
Skeletal
Cardiac

24
Q

This tissue controls the animal’s body through transmission of electrical signals. It specialized for reception of stimuli and conduction of impulses from one region to another. Consists of two basic kinds of cells. Found in the brain, spinal cord, and nerves.

A

Nervous Tissues
