47852935034 main types of tissuesEpithelial, connective, muscle, nervous0
4785293504Covers the body and lines the body cavitiesEpithelial tissue1
4785293505Epithelial classified by shapeSquamous, cuboidal, columnar, transitional2
4785293506Epithelial classified by arrangement of cellsSimple, stratified3
4785293507Single layer of scale like cells; function is transportSimple squamous epithelium4
4785293508Several layers of closely packed cells; function is protectionStratified squamous epithelium5
4785293509Columnar cells arranged in single layer; line stomach and intestines; specialized for absorptionSimple columnar epithelium6
4785293510Found in body areas that stretch; up to 10 layers of cuboidal cells that distort to squamous when stretchedStratified transitional epithelium7
4785293511Each cell touches basement membrane; lines tracheaPseudostratofied epithelium8
4785293512Specialized for secretory activity; may be grouped into glands; may secrete into ducts, blood, and body surfaceSimple cuboidal epithelium9
4785293513Saliva, digestive juice, hormonesExamples of secretion10
4785529899Most abundant in body; multiple types, appearances, functions; few cells in intercellular matrixConnective tissue11
4785529900Areolar, adipose, fibrous, bone, cartilage, bloodTypes of connective tissue12
4785529901Glue that holds organs together; most widely distributedAreolar13
4785529902Lipid storage is primary dunctionAdipose (fat)14
4785529903Bundles of strong collagen fibers (no stretch)Fibrous15
4785529904Matrix is calcified; function is support and protectionBone16
4785529905Matrix is consistency of gristle like gel; chondrocyte is the cell typeCartilage17
4785529906Matrix is fluid; functions are transportation and protectionBlood18
4785529907Forms blood cells and lymphatic system cellsHematopoietic/hemopoietic19
4785529908Fight off infectionWhite blood cells20
4785529909Transport oxygenRed blood cells21
4785529910Attaches to bone; called striated or voluntary; control is voluntary; striations apparent when viewed under a microscopeSkeletal muscle tissue22
4785529911Also called striated or involuntary; composes heart wall; ordinarily can not control contractionsCardiac muscle tissue23
4785529912Called nonstriated (visceral) or involuntary; no cross striations; found in blood vessels and other tube-shaped organsSmooth muscle tissue24
4785529913Function is rapid communication between body structures and control of body functionsNervous tissue25
4785529914Conduction cellsNeurons26
47855299152 types of processes that all neurons haveAxon and dendrite27
4785529916Carries nerve impulse away from cell bodyAxon (one)28
4785529917Carries nerve impulse toward the cell bodyDendrite (one or more)29
4785529918Supportive and connecting cellsGlia (neuroglia)30
4785538071Usually accomplished by means of regeneration of tissueTissue repair31
4785538072Tissues that regenerate easilyEpithelial and connective tissues32
4785538073Limited abilities to repair themselvesMuscle and nervous tissues33
4785544641Unusually thick scar that develops in the lower layer of the skinKeloid34
4785544642Dense fibrous mass of cells that replaces normal tissue during healingScar35
