Anthozoa |
Class of the phylum cnidaria occurring only as a polyp |
|
Scyphozoa |
Class of the phylum cnidaria including the animals called jellies |
|
Epithelial tissue |
Formed by sheets of tightly packed cells Lines organs and body cavities Covers the outside of the body |
|
Basement membrane |
A dense layer of extracellular material |
|
Simple epithelium |
One layer of cells |

|
Connective tissue |
Function to bind and support other tissues |

Fibroblast |
Secrete the protien of the extracellular fibers |
|
Macrophages |
Are phagocytic amoeboid cells that function in immune defense of the body |
|
Tse Tse fly |
African sleeping sickness |

The common ancestor of all animals was probably a |
Protist |
|
Cephalization |
An adaptation to movement |
|
The epithelium best adapted for a body surface subject to abrasion is |
Stratified squamous |
|
Which of the following fibers is responsible for the resisted property of tendons |
Collagenous fibers |
|
What joins muscles to bones? |
Tendons |
|
Cartilage is an example of which of the following types of tissue |
Connective |
|
What holds bones together at joints |
Ligaments |
|
The functional unit of nervous tissue is the |
Neuron |
|
Skeletal muscle is |
Striated and voluntary |
|
Cardiac muscle is |
Striated and branched |
