MUSCLE TISSUES

A

SKELETAL
CARDIAC
SMOOTH

22
Q

These tissues are composed of long
cells called______

A

muscle fibers

23
Q

not striated; involuntary

A

Smooth Muscle Cells

24
Q

striated with an intercalated disk for
synchronized heart contraction; involuntary

A

Cardiac Muscle Cells

25
striated; voluntary movements
Skeletal Muscle Cells
26
These help in peristalsis and other involuntary functions of the body.
Smooth Muscle Cells
27
Provide support, help in movement, and maintain homeostasis
Skeletal Muscle Cells
28
It helps in blood circulation and keeps the heart pumping
Cardiac Muscle Cells
29
Nervous Tissues
Neurons Neuroglia Neurosecretory Cells
30
Nerve cells that send messages all over your body to allow you to do everything from breathing to talking, eating, walking, and thinking
Neurons
31
These are special cells found in the brain and spinal cord. They provide support to the neurons and fibers.
Neuroglia
32
These function as endocrine organs. They release chemicals from the axons directly into the blood.
Neurosecretory Cells
33
Meristematic Tissues
Apical Intercalary Lateral
34
-These occur at the growing tips and apicals of roots and stems. -They raise the length of the plant.
Apical
35
-They occur at the internodes and basis of leaves. -They raise the size of the internode.
Intercalary
36
-These occur in the radial parts of the stems and roots. -They increase the thickness of plants.
Lateral
37
Simple Permanent Tissues
Parenchyma Collenchyma Sclerenchyma
38
-These tissues are composed of thin-walled cells having large vacuoles. -They are generally isodiametric in shape.
Parenchyma
39
They are elongated living cells with minute little intercellular gaps. Their cell walls are made up of pectin and cellulose.
Collenchyma
40
-They are long, narrow, and thick-walled because of lignin deposition in their cell wall. -They do not have any intercellular gap. -Their main function is to provide strength to the plants.
Sclerenchyma
41
Complex Permanent Tissues
Xylem Phloem
42
-This tissue helps to transport all dissolved substances and water throughout the plant. - It is also called the chief conducting tissue.
Xylem
43
-It is also called the plant's plumbing system. -They carry the dissolved food substances throughout the plant.
Phloem
44
Protective Tissues
Cork Epidermis
45
It is an external type of protective tissue. These cells are lifeless and lack intercellular gaps.
Cork
46
This is a cell made up of an outer casing throughout the structure of the plants. The stomata merge with this layer at certain places.
Epidermis
