1.
The four types of tissues are ________, ________, ________, and ________. |
Nervous, Muscle, Epithelial, Connective
|
|
|
Epithelial tissue tends to be classified according to two criteria: ________ and ________.
Indicate whether the following statements are true or false. |
Epithelial
|
|
|
True or False-Epithelial tissue cells have an apical surface at the top and are attached to a basement membrane at the bottom.
|
True
|
|
|
True or False-Connective tissue fibers that are arranged in bundles and lend strength and flexibility to a tissue are collagen fibers.
|
True
|
|
|
Which of the following muscular tissues can be voluntarily controlled? (1) cardiac, (2), smooth, (3) skeletal.
|
Skeletal
|
|
|
Which of the following tissues is avascular?
a)cardiac muscle b)stratified squamous epithelial c) compact bone d)skeletal muscle e) adipose |
b) Stratified squamous epithelial

|
|
If the lining of an organ produces and releases mucus, which of the following cells would likely be found in the tissue lining the organ?
a)goblet cells b)mast cells c)macrophages d)osteoblasts e)fibroblasts |
a) Goblet cells
|
|
|
Why does damaged cartilage heal slowly?
a)Damaged cartilage undergoes fibrosis, which interferes with the movement of materials needed for repair. b)Cartilage does not contain fibroblasts, which are needed to produce the fibers in cartilage tissue. c)Cartilage is avascular, so materials needed for repair must diffuse from surrounding tissue. d)Chondrocytes cannot be replaced once they are damaged. e)Chondrocytes undergo mitosis slowly, which delays healing. |
c)Cartilage is avascular, so materials needed for repair must diffuse from surrounding tissue.
