| What is the function of goblet cells? | To produce mucus |
| These are finger like projections that increase surface area. | Microvilia |
| This type of epithelium tissue looks like it has more than one layer because sometimes the nucleus is at the top and sometimes it is at the bottom. | Pseudostratified Epithelium |
| Where would you find Pseudostratified Epithelium? | It lines the repiratory tract. |

| Bone tissue is also called ______ tissue. | Osseus |
| Mature Bone cells are called _________. | Osteocytes |
| These make new bone cells | osteoblasts |
| These destroy bone | osteoclasts |
| This type of cell makes up cartilage. | Chondrocyte |
| Does cartilage have a vascular system? | no- it is avascular |
| This type of cartilage is found at the end of bones | Hyaline Cartilage |
| Why is cartilage slow to heal? | Because it is avascular |
| This type of cartilage acts as a shock absorber | fibrocartilage |
| This is the strongest and most durable type of cartilage. | Fibrocartilage |
| This type of cartilage is found between the disks of the vertebrae | Fibrocartilage |
| Fibrocartilage pads found in the knee are called ________. | Menisci |
| This type of cartilage is found in the external ear. | Elastic Cartilage |
| This type of fiber makes up elastic cartilage. | Elastic Fiber |
| This type of connective tissue is in a liquid state. | Blood |
| Blood can be divided into what two portions? | Whole blood and plasma |
| What are the formed elements of blood? | Red cells, white cells, and platelets, |
| What is the function of blood in the body? | Transportation, maintains body temperature, regulates ph, white blood cells destroy harmful microorganisms |
| Tissue that forms blood is called ________ tissue. | Hematopoeitic Tissue |
| What are the four signs of inflammation? | Redness, Heat, Pain, and Swelling |
| This type of tissue is a contractile tissue. | Muscle Tissue |
| What are the three types of muscle tissue? | Caridac, Smooth, and Skeletal |
| Muscles attached to bones are these type of muscles. | Skeletal |
| This type of tissue is also called striated voluntary | Skeletal |
| This type of muscle tissue is found in the walls of internal organs. | Smooth muscle |
| This type of muscle is also called nontriated involuntary. | Smooth muscle |
| This type of muscle makes up the wall of the heart | Cardiac Muscle |
| The basic function of this tissue is to send, integrate, and receive messages. | Nervous Tissue |
| This type of tissue has highly developed excitability and conductivity. | Nervous Tissue |
| This carries impulses to the cell body of a nerve. | Dendrite |
| This takes nerve impulses away from the cell body. | Axon |
| The growth of new tissue after an injury is called _________. | Regeneration |
| When you have an injury, what type of connective tissue fills the gap first? | Dense connective tissue |
| What happens if the dense connective tissue that forms after an injury is not replaced? | It becomes a scar. |
