2. Loose Ordinary Fibrous: The tissue is loose
because it’s stretchable and ordinary because it’s
one of the most widely distributed of all tissues.
Unlike the other types of connective tissue, it’s
ordinary. The bundles of collagen are a pinkish
color and the elastin fibers and cell nuclei are a
purplish color. Areolar tissue is also another
name for loose ordinary connective tissue and
contains several fibers known as fibroblasts and
macrophages. (2 pg. 135-136)
3.
4. Contains predominantly fat cells and fewer
fibroblasts, mast cells, and microphages.
Tissues form support around the kidneys and
functions as a storage place for food and
insulates material to conserve body heat. (2.
pg. 136)
5.
6. Slim, branching fibers with reticular cells that
overly to compose the reticular meshwork.
Tissues form the framework of the spleen,
lymph nodes, and bone marrow. These
tissues also function as part of the body’s
defensive mechanism from harmful
substances and microorganisms. (2, pg. 136)
7.
8. Consists of fibers packed densely in the
matrix. The bundles of fibers are arranged in
regular, parallel rows. Has predominantly
bundles of collagenous fibers and is flexible
but can have great strength. This tissue
structures in the muscle to bones, such as
tendons and ligaments (2pg. 136)
9.
10. Bundles of fibers are intertwined to form a
thick mat of strong connective tissue that can
tolerate stresses applied from any direction.
They form the strong inner skin layer known
as dermis and the outer capsule of organs
such as the kidney and the spleen. (2,pg. 136-137)
11.
12. Also called the osseous tissue, is made up of
mature cells of the bone called osteocytes and re
embedded in a unique matrix of material which
contains organic collagen and miner salts.
Osteocytes also trap and stop making new bone
matrix The bone salt, known as the inorganic
material, makes up for about 65% of the total
matrix material and is responsible for the
hardness of the bone. They are the organs of the
skeletal system which supports and protects the
muscles. (2, pg. 139-140)
13.
14. Type of epithelial tissue, which means it has
uninterrupted layers of cells, cells are attached
to each other, is polarized, and it is separated
from other tissues by a basal membrane (11).
“Stratified” meaning there is more than one
layer of cells (11).
“Cuboidal” meaning the cell is square shaped
and not flattened. It also has a round, centrally
placed nucleus (11).
This type of tissue is usually glandular tissue (11)
15.
16. Usually made up of serous or mucous
membranes (12).
Secrete enzymes, hormones, or mucous (12).
Organized into acinus, tubule and cord (12).
17.
18. Makes up embryotic skeleton (13)
Occurs in adults in the ends of bones in free-
moving joints as articular cartilage, at the
ends of the ribs, and in the nose, larynx,
trachea, and bronchi (13)
Glossy blue- white in appearance (13)
Resilient (13)
19.
20. Very strong (13).
Found in invertebral disks and at insertions of
ligaments and tendons (13).
Similar to fibrous tissues (13).
Large proportion of dense collagen bundles
oriented parallel (13).
21. Found in the ear and epiglottis (14).
Primary fibers of elastic and type II collagen
(14).
Young tissue richer in cells than adult tissue
(14).
22.
23. Considered connective tissue because it has the
same origin as other connective tissues and
connects body by delivering oxygen, nutrients
and taking away wates, CO2 and toxins (2).
Made up of leukocytes (white blood cells) and
erythrocytes (red blood cells) (2).
Hemopoiesis – constant reproduction of red
blood cells
Study histology in blood smears (2).

25. · Simple squamous epithelium consists of only
one later of flat, scalelike cells
26. · Stratified squamous epithelium consists of
multiple layers of cells with flattened
squamous cells at the outer surface of the
epithelial sheet
27. · Stratified transitional epithelium is a stratified
tissue typically found in body areas such as
the walls of the urinary bladder. The ability of
transitional epithelium to stretch protects the
bladder wall and other structures that it lines
from tearing when stretched with great force
28. · Simple columnar epithelium consists of a
single layer of cells, many of which are
modified with goblet cells, cilia, and
microvilli. Simple columnar epithelium
makes up the surface of the mucous
membrane that lines the stomach,
intestine, uterus, uterine tubes, and parts
of the respiratory tract.
29. · Stratified columnar epithelium has multiple
layers of cells, however only the most
superficial layers are truly columnar in
appearance. This form of tissue is found in
very few places of the human body, such as
the male urethra.
30. · Although pseudostratified columnar
epithelium appears to be stratified, only a
single layer of irregularly shaped columnar
cells touches the basement membrane.
31. · Simple cuboidal epithelium is composed of
one layer of cuboidal cells resting on a
basement membrane. This type of epithelium
is found in many types of glands and their
ducts, as well as inside the ducts and tubules
of the kidneys.
32. Organs include the brain, the spinal chord
and the nerves
Consists of two kinds of cells: nerve cells and
neurons (2) (pg145)
33. Also called visceral muscle tissue
Found in the walls of the viscera (2)(pg143)
34. Composes muscles attached to bones
May have a length of more than 3.75cm but
have a diameter of only 10 which gives them
their threadlike appearance (2) (pgs143-144)
35. Makes up the wall of the heart
Also called striated voluntary muscles (2) (pg145)
