🗑
show Endocrine Gland  
🗑
A structure whose cells remain intact while secreting. Glands that release fluid products by exocytosis   show
🗑
type of gland whose secretions have parts of secretory cells. The glands that lose small portions of their glandular cell bodies during secretion   show
🗑
show Holocrine Gland  
🗑
fibers and ground substance among the connective tissue cells. Ground substance has nonfibrous protein/molecules/fluid.   show
🗑
show Two types of cells in Connective Tissues  
🗑
cells that reside in the specific connective tissue type for an extended period   show
🗑
show Macrophages or wandering cells  
🗑
The most common type of fixed cell in connective tissue. It produces fibers by secreting proteins into the extracellular matrix of the connective tissues   show
🗑
Large phagocytic cell (eat solid items). Originated from white blood cells. Usually attached to fibers, but can detach and move about. Specialized to carry on the phagocytosis. Clear foreign objects from tissues, fight against infection.   show
🗑
show Mast Cell  
🗑
A compound that prevents blood clothing. Released by the Mast Cells.   show
🗑
a substance that promotes some of the reactions associated with inflammation and allergies. Released by Mast Cells   show
🗑
show collagenous fibers, elastic fibers, and reticular fibers.  
🗑
show collagenous fibers and elastic fibers  
🗑
Protein in the white fibers of the connective tissues and in the bone matrix. The major structural protein of the body   show
🗑
thick threads of the protein collagen. fibers grouped in long, parallel bundles; flexible but only slightly elastic. great tensile strength (can resist pulling force). important components of body parts that hold structures together:ligaments/tendons   show
🗑
connects bones to bones   show
🗑
show tendons  
🗑
show dense connective tissue  
🗑
has sparse or limited collagenous fibers.   show
🗑
composed of springlike protein elastin. fibers branch, forming complex networks in tissues. weaker than coll fibers, but elastic. fibers are common in stretchy body parts:vocal cords, air passage. yellow fibers. bundles of microfibrils embedded in elastin   show
🗑
protein that comprises the yellow, elastic fibers of connective tissue   show
🗑
show Reticular fibers  
🗑
two major categories of connective tissue   show
🗑
includes loose connective tissue (areolar, adipose, reticular) and dense connective tissue (dense regular, dense irregular, and elastic)   show
🗑
includes cartilage, bones, and blood   show
🗑
show Areolar Connective Tissue  
🗑

🗑
layer of matrix in bone tissue   show
