| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Neurons | Coordinate, integrate, and regulate body functions |
| Neuroglia | Cells that support and nourish neurons (think santa+elf) |
| Skeletal | Striated, voluntary, attached to bones |
| Cardiac | Striated, involuntary, wall of heart |
| Smooth | Non-striated, involuntary, digestive |
| Simple Squamous Epithelium | Single layer, flattened cells, gas diffusion, o2+co2 |
| Simple Cuboidal Epithelium | Single layer, cubeshaped cells, secretion, absorption, found in kidneys |
| Simple Columnar Epithelium | Single layer, elongated cells, secretion, absorption, found in intestines |
| Psuedostratified Columnar Epithelium (Psuedo=Fake) | Single layer, elongated cells, respiratory + reproductive passageways |
| Stratified Squamous Epithelum | Multiple layers, top cells flattened, skin, entrances and exits to the outside world: mouth, anus, +vagina, ears, urethra |
| Transitional Epithelium | Many layers of cube-shaped and elongated cells, dome like shape, flatten out depending how full your urinary system is: bladder, ureters, urethra |
| Blood | Plasma, all of the cells: red, white, and platelets are called formed elements |
| Bone | 2 types: Spongy vs compact |
| Cartilage | 3 types: hyaline, elastic, and fibrocartilage |
| Hyaline | Most abundant |
| Elastic | External, E U Station? |
| Fibrocartilage | Shock absorbers |
| Areolar Connective Tissue | Soup, nourishes |
| Adipose Tissue | Stores fat |
| Reticular Connective Tissue | Structural support |
| Dense Regular Connective Tissue | Tendons and ligaments, strong connective tissue organs in one direction only |
| Dense Irregular Connective Tissue | Strong in all different directions, dermis |
| Elastic Connective Tissue | Arteries |
