Question
Answer
Covers body surface and organs, cells of this tissue may absorb and/or secrete substances, lacks blood vessels, so nutrients diffuse through cells.   Epithelium  
🗑
Allows for the movement of limbs and organs within the body, the major function of the cells of this tissue type is to shorten, attaches to bones, located in hollow organs.   Muscle  
🗑
Transmits impulses for coordination, basis of the major controlling system of the body, forms the brain and spinal cord.   Nervous  
🗑
Connects and supports body tissues, characterized by having large amounts of nonliving matrix, most widely distributed tissue type in the body   Connective  
🗑
Lines respiratory passages and reprodutive tracts   Pseudostratified Columnar  
🗑
Lines the ducts of mammary and sweat glands   Stratified Cuboidal  
🗑
Forms the lining of the stomach and small intestine   Simple Columnar  
🗑

🗑
Forms the collecting tubules of the kidney   Simple Cuboidal  
🗑
Found in the pharynx   Stratified Columnar  
🗑
Forms the epidermis of the skin   Stratified Squamous  
🗑
Found in the bladder lining   Transitional  
🗑
Voluntarily controlled, banded appearance, multinucleate, found attatched to bones, allows you to direct your eyes, contains long, non-branching cylindrical cells, concerned with the locomotion of the body as a whole   Skeletal  
🗑
Involuntarily controlled, single nucleus in each cell, contains cylindrical cells with branching ends, displays intercalated disks, tissue of the circulatory pump, banded appearance   Cardiac  
🗑
Single nucleus in each cell, found in the walls of the stomach, uterus, and arteries, contains spindle shaped cells, changes the internal volume of an organ as it contracts, involuntarily controlled   Smooth  
🗑
Very strong but lacks a good blood supply   Dense Connective  
🗑
Forms the framework of lymph nodes   Reticular Connective  
🗑
Found in intervertebral disks   Fibrocartilage  
🗑
Provides strength and flexibility of the external ear   Elastic Cartilage  
🗑
Bonds the skin to underlying organs   Loose Connective (areolar)  
🗑
Provides insulation for the body   Adipose  
🗑
Highly resistant to wear and found on the ends of articulating bones   Hyaline Cartilage  
🗑
Contains cells arranged concentrically around a nutrient canal; matrix is hard due to mineral salts   Bone  
🗑
Only tissue that has a liquid matrix   Blood  
🗑
Allows for the flexibility of the spinal cord and some hollow organs   Elastic Connective  
🗑
Site of ribosome formation   Nucleolus  
🗑
Sacs within the cell that hold substances that recently entered the cell   Vesicles  
🗑
Contain enzymes that digest worn cellular parts or substances that enter cells   Lysosomes  
🗑
Provides for signal transduction and controls what enters and leaves the cell   Cell Membrane  
🗑
Site of protein synthesis   Ribosomes  
🗑
Modifies proteins for secretion and transport   Golgi Apparatus  
🗑
Motile projections that help to propel fluids over the cellular surface   Cilia  
🗑
Transform energy and release it from various molecules   Mitochondria  
🗑
Sythensizes lipids and transports materials within a cell   Endoplasmic Reticulum  
🗑
Motile projections that are capable of propelling a cell   Flagella  
🗑
Contains the cellular information necessary to synthesize proteins   Chromatin  
🗑
Contain enzymes that are important for the breakdown of organic molecules   Peroxisomes  
🗑
What cell structure is the outermost limit of the cell and is extremely thin and selectively permeable?   Cell Membrane  
🗑
The cell membrane is composed of a double layer of ________.   Phospholipids  
🗑
What molecules are embedded in the membrane to strengthen?   Cholesterol Molecules  
🗑
What molecule functions as enzymes and in signal transduction?   Peripheral Proteins  
🗑
What molecule spans the membrane and aids in the passage of small molecules and ions?   Integral Proteins  
🗑
What molecule functions as receptors for hormones and neurotransmitters?   Fibrous Proteins  
🗑
Name the structure that prevents the separation of tissue layers and is found in tissues with great mechanical stress?   Desmosomes  
🗑
What structure connects adjacent cells and allows for the passage of messages and molecules?   Gap Junctions  
🗑
The type of transport that requires an input of energy is called _______   active  
🗑
The of transport that does not require an input of energy is called ______   passive  
🗑
Which transport uses membrane proteins that function as carriers to move molecules across the cell membrane?   facilitated diffusion/transport  
🗑
Which transport is caused by the random motion of molecules?   diffusion  
🗑
Which transport involves smaller molecules being forced through membranes from regions of higher pressure to regions of lower pressure?   filtration  
🗑
Which transport requires energy to take a substance into the cell and the substance is progressively enclosed by a portion of the cell membrane?   endocytosis  
🗑
Which transport requires energy to move molecules against a concentration gradient through carrier molecules in cell membranes?   active transport  
🗑
Which transport requires energy to carry a substance rapidly from one side of the cell to the other?   transcytosis  
🗑
Which transport requires energy to move a substance from the cell interior into the extracellular space?   exocytosis  
🗑


   

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.
