Adipose tissue | Cells that store fat |
Areolar tissue (ah-REE-oh-lar) | A collagen and elastin fibers In gel like intercellular matrix. The Aeromarine tissue is soft and it surrounds, protect and cushions many organs. |
Chondrocytes | Cartilage cells |
Columnar epithelium | Cells are tall and narrow and look like columns |
Connective tissue | Found in blood, under the skin, in bone and around many organs. |
Cubical epithelium | Cells that are Cubelike and look like dice |
Endocrine glands | Secrete hormones |
Epithelial tissue (ep-i-THEE-lee-al) | Forms long continuous sheets. Helps for skin and covers the body. |
Exocrine glands | Ducts or tiny tubes that secrete/release mucus, sweat, saliva and digestive enzymes |
Ligaments | Connect bones to each other |
Mucous membranes | Lines all the body cavities that open to the exterior body. Also helps keep tract moist for easy passages. |
Muscle tissue | Composed of small cells (fibers) they cause movement of a body part |
Nervous tissue | Make up the brain, spinal cord and nerves. Nervous tissue consist of 2 types of cells neurons and neuroglia |
Osseous tissue | Bone tissue |
Parietal layer | Part of the membrane that lines the walls of the cavity (like wall paper) |
Serous membrane | Secrete a thin, watery, serous fluid allows membranes to slide past one another without any friction |
Squamous epithelium (SKWAY-MUSS) | Cells are things and flat like fish scales |
Tendons | Are cordlike structures that attach muscles to bones |
Visceral layer | Part of the membrane that covers the outside of an organ |
