SPECIALIZED CELLS AND TISSUE

________ are cells that are found surrounding internal organs and under the skin, and they are responsible for the formation of a fatty connective tissue known as adipose.

________ has a honeycomb- like structure that is both lightweight and strong, and it is in these huge open areas where bone marrow may be found.

are the four primary forms of tissue, each of which originates from a distinct cell layer in the early embryo.

include blood, bone, cartilage, tendons, and ligaments among other things.

Contains a lengthy nerve that is wire-like and insulated.

Contains both the bodies of nerve cells and support cells.

A view of nerve tissue taken using a microscope, displaying the glial cells that are there to support the nerve cells (neurons).

Tough yet flexible; The most common

which are spherical cells, can be seen in a sample of cartilage taken from the epiglottis.

These cells are embedded in fibers of elastin, which give the cartilage its lightness and flexibility.

A portion of the connective tissue in the body is made up of cells that are only loosely encased in the fibers.

The _ of fibroblast cells can be observed here as black dots.

Connects dermis of skin to underlying organs

Connective tissue that is white in color surrounds each bundle of contractive filaments, which can be seen here in the form of stripes.

This sturdy and dense tissue is present in the lower layer of the epidermis, as well as in the ligaments and tendons (dermis).

Lower layer of skin

Part of epithelial tissue Of skin

Adipocytes are cells that are found surrounding internal organs and under the skin, and they are responsible for the formation of a fatty connective tissue known as adipose.

Beneath dermis layer Of skin

is characterized by its long fibers, which are responsible for involuntary contractions.
