25
Conduct nerve impulses
Axon
26
Cell body
contains nucleus in nervous tissue
27
Epithelial Tissue
Lines and covers body surfaces
28
Epithelial tissue (Hint: 3 types)
Squamous, columnar, cuboidal
29
One cell thick, specialized for transport
Simple membranes
30
Stratified epithelial tissue | Hint: Opposite of simplified epithelial tissue
number of layers; for protection
31
Non-keratinized
stratified squamous consists of living cells
32
Keratinized
stratified squamous consists of living cells
33
Junctional complexes
where cells are joined, which increases strength and creates a barrier
34
where the junctional complexes are separated
Basement membrane
35
Clusters in exocrine glands
Acini
36
Exocrine Glands | How do they work?
secretion is caused by surrounding myoepithelial cells, secrete via ducts

44
Osteocytes
trapped, inactive osteoblasts
45
Osteoclasts
the bone resorbing cells
46
Are anatomical and functional units made of two or more primary tissues
Organs
47
Systems
groups of organs working together to maintain homeostasis
48
