4 types of tissue in the human body |
epithelial, connective, muscle, nervous |
|
Blood is a type of |
connective tissue |
|
simple epithelial means |
single layer of epithelial cells and the underlying basal lamina |
|
Stratified epithelial means |
two or more layers of epithelial and the underlying basal lamina |
|
Squamous cell |
a flat cell with a flattened nucleus |
|
supportive extracellular matrix consisting of the basal lamina made by the epithelial cells and the reticular lamina made by the underlying cells of connective tissue. |
basement membrane |
|
This gives tissue tensile strength |
collagen fibers |
|
this makes a tissue distensible(stretches) |
elastic fiber |
|
Tough but flexible tissue resistant to tension, stretching, and compressive forces |
cartilage |
|
Having a stripped appearance (need to know) |
striated |
|
