A

Supports, reinforce, cushions and resist compression

24
Location of Hyaline cartilage
ends of long bones, ribs to sternum
25
Elastic Cartilage
halo cells, fiber matrix
26
Function of Elastic Cartilage
maintain shape, allows flexibility
27
Location of Elastic Cartilage
Ears
28
Fibrocartilage
halo cells, matrix of collagen fibers
29
Function of fibrocartilage
absorb compression shock
30
Location of fibrocartilage
disc of knee, intervertebral disc
31
Bone (osseous tissue)
Look like tree rings, tree stump
32
Function of bone
provide levers for muscle to act on, location where blood cells are made
33
location of bone
bones
34
Blood
mostly water, with donut like cells
35
Function of blood
transport oxygen and carbon dioxide
36
Location of blood
blood vessels
37
3 Muscle Tissue
Skeletal, cardiac, smooth
38
Skeletal muscle
vertical stripes
39
Function of skeletal muscle
initiates and controls voluntary movement
40
Location of skeletal muscle
skeletal muscle attached to bones
41
Cardiac Muscle
branching has intercalated discs
42
Function of cardiac muscle
squeezes at the same time, as it contracts propels blood into circulation
43
Location of cardiac muscle
heart
44
Smooth Muscle
short smooth fiber with spindle shape nuclei
45
Function of smooth muscle
squeezes things through
46
Location of smooth muscle
digestive system
