Q
A

stratified cuboidal epithelium in sweat glands

17
Q
A

stratified columnar

2 layers

can be seen in soft palate, larynx,

Pharyx and salivary glands

18
Q
A

transitional epithelium

urinary tract

permits expansion and recoil after stretching

19
Q
A

Areolar connective tissue (loose connective tissue)

mostcommon type of connective tissue

holds organs in place

connects epithelial cells to the underlying tissues,

it also surrounds blood vessels and nerves

20
Q
A

Dense regular connective tissue

tendons and ligaments

firm attachment, pull of muscles, reduces friction, stabilizes bones

21
Q
A

dense irregular connective tissue

dermis

strength to resist force applied from many directions

helps prevent overexpansion

22
Q
A

Hyaline Cartilage (specialized connective tissue)

chondrocytes in lacunae

covering bone surfaces at synovial joints, supporting the larynx, trachea, and bronchi

provides flexible support, reduces friction btwn bony surfaces

23
Q
A

Hyaline cartilage in trachea

glassy ECM

24
Q
A

elastic cartilage

ear, epiglottis

tolerates distortion without damage and returns to original shape

chondrocyte in lacuna

25
Q
A

fibrous cartilage

pads within knew joint, pubic bones, intervertebral discs

resist compression

26
Q
A

intervertebral disk

fibrocartilage

27
Q
A

osteon=building block of all bone

osteocytes in lacunae

28
Q
A

skeletal muscle

voluntary

nuclei in peripherary

29
Q
A

smooth muscle

involuntary

nuclei in center

30
Q
A

smooth muscle of artery

31
Q
A

involuntary

intercalated disks

32
Q
A

simple squamous and simple cuboidal

33
Q
A

simple cuboidal thyroid

34
