Across
- 2. This connective tissue forms the Embryonic skeleton and covers the ends of long bones
- 5. columnar:Single layer of cells that vary in height, with only the tall cells reaching the apical surface, nuclei at different levels, may contain goblet cells and cilia
- 7. tissue that supports the external ear and forms the epiglottis
- 8. This connective tissue can be found in the bone marrow, spleen and lymph nodes
- 10. matrix: the non living substance located between the cells of a connective tissue
- 13. tissue that produces movement
- 16. Tissue that Supports and protects body structures; stores fat; synthesizes blood cells
- 17. Rapidly replace lost cells by cell division
- 18. Tissue that contains cells that stores energy, insulates the body and cushions organs
- 20. No blood vessels
- 23. These fibers provide strength and stretching capacity
- 24. The basement membrane surface
Down
- 1. Glands that secrete their products onto body surfaces (skin) or into body cavities
- 3. lines and covers surfaces
- 4. Tissue that protects, supports and binds things together
- 6. Intervertebral discs, pubis symphysis, menisci of knee joint are all made of this connective tissue
- 7. Glands that secrete directly into body fluids or blood; ductless
- 9. Connects muscle to bone
- 11. tissue that recives stimuli and conducts impulses
- 12. replaces damaged tissue with scar tissue
- 14. type of epithelial tissue that forms membranes where diffusion occurs
- 15. connective tissue with a solid but flexible gel like matrix
- 19. Squamous: Contains a Single layer of flattened scale-like cells
- 21. membrane that is on the free/unattached surface
- 22. where chondrocytes are found
