1.
Adipose tissue: contains ___cells that are closely packed; cells appear empty because fat was removed during tissue preparation. Cytoplasm and nucleus located at periphery of cell.
2.
Blood: numerous erythrocytes and few leukocytes present in matrix; some platelets scattered around.
3.
blood: composed of a fluid matrix.
4.
Bone: consists of a hard matrix of calcium salts; the calcium salt makes it hard.
5.
Bone: characterized by central (Haversian) canal.
6.
Bone: Lacunae, which hold the osteocyte (bone cells), are arranged in concentric rings around the central Haversian canal.
7.
Cardiac muscle fibers: have cross-striations and are branched; adjacent fibers are separated by dark-staining structures called intercalated disks; single nucleus in each cardiac muscle fiber.
8.
Cartilage: connective tissue with semisolid matrix; within matrix are fibers and chondrocytes.
9.
Chondrocytes: cartilage cells located within round-ovoid spaces called lacunae.
10.
Collagen fibers: appear pink.
11.
Connective Tissue: characterized by a fluid, semisolid, or solid matrix in which cells and fibers are embedded; four general catergories.
12.
Connective tissue proper: loose connective tissue, dense regular connective tissue and adipose tissue comprise this.
13.
Connective Tissue Proper, cartilage, bone, and blood: Four general categories of connective tissue
14.
Dense Regular connective tissue: contains collagen fibers that are arranged in parallel. Between fibers are flattened rodlike nuclei of fibroblasts.
15.
Elastic Cartilage: contains collagen fibers, chondrocytes, and elastic fiber that are found between lacunae.
16.
Elastic Fibers: appear as blue-black strands randomly arranged in the matrix.
17.
Epithelial tissue classified as: simple or stratified
18.
Four types of tissues found in animals: epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous
19.
Hyaline Cartilage: composed of collagen and chondrocytes
20.
Loose connective (areolar) tissue: characterized by fibers that are irregularly arranged in the matrix; two types of fibers are present: collagen and elastic.
21.
Muscle: three types of this kind of tissue; composed of muscle fibers.
22.
Nervous tissue: composed of neurons and neuroglia (neuroglial cells)
23.
Neuroglial cells: cannot be distinguished because cytoplasm is unstained in tissue prep; however, nuclei are visible as dots.
24.
Neurons: consist of a cell body, dendrites, and an axon. Several Cytoplasmic processes radiate from the cell body, which holds the nucleus.
25.
Simple columnar epithelium: composed of cells that are taller than they are wide, and the nucleus is located towards the base of the cell.
26.
Simple cuboidal epithelium: characterized by cube-shaped cells with a nucleus that is usually round and centrally located.
27.
Simple Epithelial tissue: has only one layer of cells
28.
Simple squamous epithelium: characterized by flattened, irregulary shaped cells that form a continuous sheet.
29.
Skeletal muscle fibers: characterized by fibers that have light and dark striping or cross-striations. Each fiber is multinucleated; nuclei are located of priphery of each fiber.
30.
Smooth muscle fibers: have no cross-striations; single elongated or ovoid nucleus is present in each fiber.
31.
Stratified Epithelial tissue: has several cells layers
