|
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| tissue type that covers and lines surfaces of the body | epithelium
🗑
|
||||
| the connective tissue below the bottom layer of epithelium | basement membrane
🗑
|
||||
| single layer of flat disc shaped cells, found in lung, glomerulus of kidney and lining blood vessels | simple squamous
🗑
|
||||
| single layer of square shaped cells found in the kidney tubules and lining the ovary | simple cuboidal
🗑
|
||||
| type of special connective tissue that has many dark fibers surrounding the lacunae, found in external ear and parts of the larynx | elastic cartilage
🗑
|
||||
| single layer of tall cells characterized by the nuclei being at many levels and they have cilia. Cells are wrapped around each other. found in trachea, fallopian tubes | pseudostratified ciliated columnar
🗑
|
||||
| type of connective tissue that is a network of fibers that give shape to friable organs like the speen and lymph nodes. Cannot see this tissue unless it is specifically stained for | reticular
🗑
|
||||
| Type of cell found in the intestine that secretes mucus. Named for its characteristic shape | goblet cell
🗑
|
||||
| multiple layered epithelium that appears flakey on the top, nuclei can only be seen in the lower layers. | stratified squamous keratinized
🗑
|
||||
| single layer of epithelium that has an rectangular shape and its oval shaped nuclei lined up neatly near the bottom of the cell, found in intestines and stomach | simple columnar
🗑
|
||||
| type of connective tissue that is also referred to as loose. Matrix is made by fibroblasts and contains collagen and elastic fibers. Found under all epithelium | areolar
🗑
|
||||
| multiple layered epithelium that has nuclei present in all layers, not flakey on the top edge, found in vagina and esophagus | stratified squamous non-keratinized
🗑
|
||||
| connective tissue that has a characteristic signet ring shape due to the lipids stored inside the cell | adipose
🗑
|
||||
| connective tissue that makes up tendons and ligaments, mostly collagen fibers with very little matrix | collagenous connective
🗑
|
||||
| type of special connective tissue that has lacunae lining up in rows like corn kernals on the cob, always found with another connective tissue, makes up intervertebral discs and pubic symphysis | fibrocartilage
🗑
|
||||
| type of multilayered epithelium that is specially adapted to compress as the lumen of the organ fills, found in the urinary bladder and ureters | transitional
🗑
|
||||
| glassy looking special connective tissue that is very pale in appearance, makes up the articular cartilage at the ends of bones as well as the embryonic skeleton | hyaline cartilage
🗑
|
||||
| most rigid connective tissue, its matrix has lots of collagen fibers as well as calcium crystals to harden it. Cells in this tissue are called osteocytes | bone
🗑
|
||||
| stretchy type of connective tissue that contains mostly elastic fibers, found under the skin | elastic connective
🗑
|
||||
| most fluid type of special connective tissue, made up of erythrocytes, leukocytes and platelets. considered connective tissue because there are also fibers that are constructed when a clot is needed to be formed | blood
🗑
|
||||
| material found in between the cells of connective tissue, varies from very hard like bone to fluid like blood | extracellular matrix
🗑
|
||||
| type of cell that makes all connective tissue proper | fibroblast
🗑
|
||||
| typeof cell that makes cartilage | chondrocyte
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
