23
spongy bone that supports red bone marrow
Cancellous Bone
24
cartilage cells produce the tough, gristle like ground substances.
Chondrocytes
25
without bloods cells and relies on diffusion
Avascular
26
Muscle that attaches to bone, it is striated
Skeletal Muscle
27
Heart muscle that is striated and has intercalated discs
Cardiac muscle
28
Muscle that is found on organ walls and has no striations
Smooth Muscle
29
nerve cell
Neuron
30
regulates and integrates the body.
Nervous Tissue
31
Supporting framework of cells
Neurologia
32
phagocytic cells repair damage and fill gaps.
Regeneration
33
4 types of tissue
Epithelial, connective, Muscle, nervous
33
Unusually thick scar
Keloid
34
3 types of Muscle Tissue
Cardiac, Smooth, Skeletal
35
5 functions of epithelial tissue
Protection, sensory, Secretion, Absorption, Excretion
36
2 types of epithelial tissue
Membranous, and Grandular
37
4 types of Connective tissue
fibrous, bone, cartilage, blood
38
3 Types of Cartilage
Hyaline, Fibro, Elastic
38
4 Functions of Connective tissue
Connect, Support, Transport, Defend
39
3 ECM Fibers
Collagenous, Reticular, Elastic
40
3 types of blood cells
red cells, white cells, and platelets
41
3 Types of Epithelial membrane
Cutaneous, Serous, Mucous
42
Simple squamos is found
in the lungs and lining of blood vessels
43
A membrane can be
a wall or a lining
44
Simple columnar make up mucus membrane of
stomach, uterus, respiratory tract.
45
Simple squamos has a
thin nature and is good at diffusion.
46
Simple cuboidal are
are good at secretion and make up glands
47
Different types of columnar
are goblet, cilia, and microvilli
48
Grandular Epithelium may function as a unicellular gland
or it may function in clusters, such as solid cords or follicles.
49
Collagenous fibers are made of collagen bundles and
are tough fibers that provide strength and resist stretch, they contribute to aging.
50
Connective tissue is mostly composed of
ECM
51
The matrix determines if the tissue is
gel-like, firm, hard, tough, or delicate.
51
Reticular fibers are
collagen networks that support capillaries and nerves.
52
Loose Ordinary Areolar tissue is loose because it is
stretchable, ordinary because it is common and widespread, and areolar because it has space in-between it.
53
Elastic fibers are made of stretchy
elastin and make up the ear, they are yellow.
54
Hyaline Cartilage is the most prevalent
cartilage and is at the end of bones.
54
Adipose is support and
protection for organs while being an insulator and storing calories.
55
Bone Tissue is made of
osteocytes/bone cells
56
Fibrous Cartilage is the toughest and most durable cartilage
it is rigid and full of collagen.
57
Collagen repairs
the connective tissue
57
Elastic Cartilage
is very flexible
58
Epithelial and connective tissues
are best at repairs
59
If deep damage occurs it will result in
a dense, fibrous repair.
60
Some neurons OUTSIDE the brain and spinal
cord can repair themselves only if neurologia are present.
61
Muscle does not
heal well
62
Fibrous connective tissue sometimes
heals the wound resulting in a loss of normal function.
63
Normally, brain and spinal tissue in adults
do not grow, leading to permanent damage
64
The only type of connective tissue membrane is
synovial
65
Cutaneous membrane covers the surfaces that are
exposed externally, they are 16% of body weight.
66
Serous membrane covers
cavities that are not externally exposed.
67
Pleura and peritoneum are both
membranes that are serous.
68
Pleura surrounds the
lungs and lines the thoracic cavity.
69
Peritoneum covers abdominal viscera
and lines the abdominal cavity.
69
They secrete lubricant
to avoid the lungs from chafing
70
Mucous membrane lines surfaces that are exposed to the outside
, they are the urinary, respiratory, digestive, and reproductive tracts. It produces mucous.
71
Synovial lines the spaces
between bones and joints
