Basic forms of Histology
Across
- 2. Glossy appearing, can see the substance between cells
- 3. Contains elastic fibers between cells
- 5. Extra layer of dead cells present
- 8. Rectangle shaped cells
- 9. Empty looking cells with thin walls around it
- 11. Porous appearance with a thick wall
- 15. "Tree-like" dark centers with thinner layers surrounding
- 20. Thin and flat cells
- 21. Cells change from round to flat when stretched
- 23. Long muscle fibers with multiple nuclei, lacking striations
- 24. Consists of neurons and glial cells
Down
- 1. Contains large bundles of organized collagen fibers
- 4. Loosely organized fibers with an abundance of blood vessels, and seemingly empty space
- 6. Densely packed, parallel collagen fibers
- 7. Densely packed, randomly arranged collagen fibers with few visible cells
- 10. Present in simple and pseudostratified columnar epithelia, secretes mucus
- 12. Falsely appearing multi-layer epithelia (typically columnar), all cells touch basement membrane
- 13. Mesh of reticular fibers and fibroblasts
- 14. Square shaped cells
- 16. Long thin muscle fiber cells with multiple nuclei and striations
- 17. One layer of epithelial tissue, all cells touch basement membrane
- 18. Multiple layers of epithelial tissue, some cells do not touch basement membrane
- 19. Centrally located nuclei with striations and intercalated discs
- 22. No extra later of dead cells present
