Anatomy Terms Part 2

4. free surface cells that vary in appearance, based on the stretching of the tissue. Deals with changing is shape with elasticity.
5. to carry oxygen from the lungs to the body tissues and carbon dioxide as a waste product.
7. important cells of the immune system, that are formed in response to an infection.
8. sometimes referred to asMast cells yellow fibrocartilage, is a type of cartilage that provides both strength and elasticity.
9. is the tough, very strong connective tissue found predominantly in the intervertebral disks.
10. is a modified dense connective tissue that contains numerous elastic fibers in addition to collagen fibers.
16. a thick layers that provide protection for the underlying layers.
17. characterized by a fine network or netlike structures.
21. a single layer of the tall closely packed cells.
22. provides connection between different tissues in the human body.
24. fat, loose connective tissue composed of adipocytes.

1. which a portion of cell pinches off with the secreted products.
2. connective tissue has fibers that are not arranged in parallel bundles as in dense regular connective tissue.
3. is a glass like but translucent cartilage that is found on many joint surfaces.
6. which is cells in columns on the free surface. Which is also rare in the body.
11. a single layer of cube-cells.
12. which secretes hormones into the blood. Cells are packed tightly together, which has capillaries running through the tissue.
13. a single flat layer of cells that is thin and permeable.
14. general functions in the body and central nervous system.
15. which appears like cell nuclei that is found at different levels, even though it isn’t there.
18. which cells rupture and spill products into the duct.
19. Tissue that gives strength and structure to bones.
20. lets cells secrete the products via exocytosis.
23. Loose tissue is the most common type of tissue.
