Stratified squamous
What type of epithelial tissue provides protection with many layers of flattened cells?
simple squamous

Connective
What is the most abundant tissue type in the body?
simple, cuboidal, columnar

dense elastic
What type of dense connective tissue contains a higher proportion of elastic fibers and lines the major arteries around the heart?

Nervous tissue
What type of tissue transmits electrical signals from sensory receptors to effectors?
Loose connective, adipose
What type of connective tissue provides insulation for the body?
Collagen, Elastic, Reticular
What are the three types of fibers found in extracellular matrix (ECM)?
Collagen
Which type of fiber is the strongest and most abundant? (provides tensile strength)
Endocrine

Exocrine
Which type of gland secretes mucous into the intestines?
Endocrine
Which type of gland is ductless?
Epithelial
What category of tissue forms membranes?
Loose Connective, Areolar
What type of connective tissue is found underneath all epithelial tissue in the body?
Avascular
Epithelial tissue is called ________________ because it does not contain blood vessels.
hyaline
What type of cartilage forms much of the fetal skeleton and has a glassy appearance?
reticular
What type of connective tissue provides the framework for organs such as the spleen and lymph nodes?
in dense regular, collagen fibers are arranged in parallel sheets, in dense irregular, collagen fibers are arranged randomly
What is the main difference between dense regular and dense irregular connective tissue?
cardiac
Which type of muscle tissue has intercalated disks?
smooth
Which type of muscle tissue lacks striations?
squamous (think squashed)
Which cells are flattened and scale-like?
connective tissue
