Front 7

_____ have up to 10 layers of roughly cuboidal cells that distort to squamous shape when stretched; found in body areas that stretch, such as urinary bladder

Back 7

stratified transitional epithelium

Front 8

____ is a single layer of distorted columnar cells; each cell touches basement membrane

Back 8

pseudostratified epithelium

Front 9

Back 9

connective tissue

Front 10

_____ is a loose connective tissue that is fibrrous glue (fascia) that holds organs together; collagenous and elastic fibers, plus a variety of cell types

Back 10

areolar tissue

Front 11

____ is a type of connective tissue that aids in lipid storage, metabolism regulation; brown fat produces heat

Back 17

skeletal

Front 18

_____ muscle tissue also called striated involuntary; composes heart wall; ordinarily cannot control contractions

Back 18

cardiac

Front 19

Back 24

glia (neuroglia)

Front 25

____ single layer of cubelike cells often specialized for secretory activity; may secrete into ducts, directly into blood, and on body surface

Back 25

simple cuboidal epithelium
