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