Across
  1. 3. Long, thin strained muscle cells that are parallel to each other.
  2. 5. A mature cell with properties of an immature cell, produces protein fibers as well as ground substance.
  3. 7. Epithelial Tissue comprised of two or more layer of cells.
  4. 9. A single layer of cells that fit close together and are tall, these cells line the length of the digestive tract.
  5. 12. The most common of cartilage, this matrix contains closely packed collagen fibers. Can be found in the tips of the ribs and covering synovial joints, supports the larynx and trachea.
  6. 13. Consist of smooth muscle cells and found in the wall of every organ.
  7. 15. Tissues that connect body parts, is the most distributed and abundant tissue of the body. This tissue is composed of many types of cells and the extracellular matrix they secrete.
  8. 16. Tissues specialized for contraction, can turn atp into mechanical energy.
Down
  1. 1. Cartilage that contains numerous elastic fibers that make it extremely resilient and flexible. Formed in the external flap of the outer ear, the epiglottis, the auditory tube leading to the middle ear cavity.
  2. 2. Epithelial tissue composed of a single layer of cells.
  3. 4. The thin tissue forming the outer layer of the body and lining the canal.
  4. 6. A cartilage where the matrix is dominated by collagen fibers and a little ground substance, the fibers are interwoven to make it tough and durable.Found in the knee joint and the pubic bones of the pelvis.
  5. 8. An epithelial cell with a shape that is about as wide as it is tall
  6. 10. Tissues Type composed of wide,branching cardiac muscle cells.
  7. 11. A thin layer of flattened cells that normally are found in the capillaries and the air sacs of lungs.
  8. 14. a gel that contains a polysaccharide named chondroitin sulfates that bonds with proteins to form a ground substance called proteoglycans. Cartilage is found in joints and bones as well as your nose and ears. There are three different kinds of cartilage.
