Epithelial Tissue
covers surface of the body, lines hollow cavities of organs ex: skin, endothelium ...mesothelium- covers heart. TERM 2
Connective Tissue
DEFINITION 2 connects several organs together, acts like a packing material. ex: blood, bone, adipose TERM 3
Muscle Tissue
DEFINITION 3 Responsible for movement of body parts, exhibit contractibility, excitability. ex: skeletal, muscle, smooth muscle, cardiac muscles. TERM 4
Nerve Tissue
DEFINITION 4 conducts actin potential ex: neurons TERM 5

Connective Tissue
Connective Tissue C.T Proper Areolar C.T (Loose C.T) Dense C.T
- Fluid C.T ex: CSF lymph (cerebral spinal fluid) 3. Supportive C.T ex: cartilage bones TERM 32
Areolar Connective Tissue- (loose C.T)
DEFINITION 32 Matrix- made of proteoglycans (proteins+carbohydrate) cellular populations Fibroblasts- produce matrix Mesenchyme: stem cells which does repair Mast cells: secrete histamine Heparin. Macro-phages: phagocytosis Microphages: First ones to trap pathogens. Neutrophils-die Adipose cells:Absorb shock Melanocytes: Produce melanin-skin pigments Lymphocytes: Defensive in function TERM 33
Dense Connective Tissue
DEFINITION 33 Collagen fibers: For rigid (firmness)Elastin: For flexibilityReticulate: For stability TERM 34
Fluid Connective Tissue
DEFINITION 34 Blood Plasma 55% Plasma will have 91% water, 7% plasma proteins (albumin,globulin,fibrinogen), 2% solutes Formed elements 45% RBC's, WBC's, PlateletsWhite Blood Cells Granular WBC's Agranular WBC's TERM 35
White Blood Cells
DEFINITION 35 Granular WBC's: Neutrophils- 65%, both acid and loving cells, pink small granules with 3-5 lobed nucleus. Basophils- .5-1%, base loving cells, with purple granules and "Z" shaped nucleus. Esinophils- 2-4%, acid loving cells, with orange and red granules having 2 lobed nucleus. Agranular WBC's: Monocyte- 4-6%, kidney shaped, purple. Lymphocyte- 30%, granules large deep blueish purple.
Cartilage (3 types)
Matrix: made up ofchondroitin sulfate Hylaine Cartilage- location: at elbow, ribs, trachea. Function: Reduce Friction Elastic Cartilage- location: Epiglottis, pinna of ear. Function: Tolerates distortion Fibro Cartilage- location: In between vertebrae. Function: Resists compression TERM 37

Muscles (3 types)
DEFINITION 39 Skeletal- voluntary, attached to bones, prominent striations present, multi-nucleated. Cardiac- involuntary, only found in heart wall, faint striations, uni-nucleated, presence of intercalated disks. Smooth- involuntary, located in visceral organs, no striations, uni-nucleated, spindle-shaped.
