- 28. ____________ the main type of connective tissue seen throughout the body.
- 33. a junction between two nerve cells, consisting of a minute gap across which impulses pass by diffusion of a neurotransmitter.
- 36. the thick layer of living tissue below the epidermis which forms the true skin, containing blood capillaries, nerve endings, sweat glands, hair follicles, and other structures.
