24
Q

Pine tree like proteins that form branches that traps water

A

25
Release histamine causing inflammation
MAST cells
26
Produce matrix
Blast (germ)
27
Maintain matrix
Cyte (cell)
28
Break down the matrix
Clast (break)
29
Extracellular matrix is mostly collagen Contains numerous fibroblast
Areolar
30
Large fat storage cells w small amount of extracellular matrix
Adipose
31
Lymphatic tissue framework
Reticular (spleen, lymph nodes, bone marrow and liver)
32
Large number of protein fibers
Dense connective tissue
33
Collagen fibers are oriented in the same direction
Dense regular
34
Collagen fibers are oriented in many different directions
Dense irregular
35
Abundant elastic fibers among collagen fibers which allow tissue to recoil and stretch
Dense elastic connective tissue
36
Composed of chondrocytes Gives flexibility and strength Provide resiliency or the the ability to spring back to original shape
Cartilage
37
3 types of cartilage
1. Hyaline 2. Fibrocartilage 3. Elastic
38
Clear, glassy Most ABUNDANT covers bone ends to FORM JOINTS
hyaline
39
Able to resist pulling or tearing forces
Fibrocartilage
40
Hard CT that consist of living cells and a mineralized matrix
Bone
41
Bone cells
Osteocytes
42
Ability to contract and make movement possible
Muscle tissue
43
“Meat of animals” 40% of body weight Attached to skeleton VOLUNTARY movement Cellls are STRIATED
Skeletal muscle
44
Heart muscle for pumping blood Involuntary control Connected through intercalated disks
Cardiac muscle
45
Forms walls of hollow organs, skin and eyes Involuntary Tapered at each end
Smooth muscle
46
Forms brain, spinal cord and nerves For coordinating and controlling many body activities
Nervous tissue
47
Nerve cell that is responsible for conducting action potentials
Neurons
48
Various kind of epithelium resting on a thick layer of CT Line cavity that opens outside the body
Mucous membranes
49
Simple squamous resting on a loose CT Secrete serous
Serous membranes
50
Line inside the cavities and produce synovial fluid
Synovial membranes
