Simple Squamous
Very thin and excellent at allowing gases and molecules to pass via diffusion
Hyaline Cartilage
Found at the ends of bones, in the nose, attaching to ribs to the sternum, and in the trachea
Simple Columnar (picture)
Adipose Tissue
Used for insulation, cushioning and storing energy reserves
Simple Columnar
Excellent at absorption and secretion of mucus
Stratified Squamous
Efficient at protection and abrasion. Many layers of flat cells
Bone
Rigid matrix due to abundant collagen fibers and calcium salts. Mature cells called osteocytes
Stratified cuboidal
Elastic Cartilage
Firm, rubber-like matrix. Found in the earlobe and epiglottis
Smooth Muscle
Regular Dense Connective Tissue (picture)
Fibrocartilage
Resist compression and tension. Found in the intervertebral disks and knee cartilage
Regular Dense Connective Tissue
Closely packed collagen fibers running parallel through the matrix. Include tendon and ligaments
Stratified Squamous
Reticular Connective Tissue
Form a soft skeleton that supports other cells. Found in lymph nodes, spleen, and bone marrow
Cardiac Muscle
Pseudostratified
Contains cilia to move substances, secrete mucus and found in the trachea and fallopian tubes.
Blood
do NOT connect things. Cells are erythrocytes, leukocytes and thrombocytes. Matrix made of plasma
Nervous Tissue
Irregular Dense Connective Tissue
Strong when pulled in many directions. Found in the dermis and fibrous coverings around the joints
Simple Squamous
Cardiac Muscle
Striated and have centrally located nuclei, and have many branches.
Blood
Skeletal Muscle
Striated, multinucleated, and have peripherally located nuclei. Conscious body movement.
Bone
Simple Cuboidal
Irregular Dense Connective Tissue
Nervous Tissue
Found in the brain, spinal cord and nerves. Send electrical signals
Simple Cuboidal
Excellent at secretion and absorption. Found in the walls of kidney tubules and within glands.
Adipose Tissue
Hyaline Cartilage
Smooth Muscle
Found inside the stomach, intestines, blood vessels, bladder, eye, and reproductive organs.
Areolar Connective Tissue
Transitional Epithelial Tissue
Stratified columnar
Rare type of epithelial tissue. Found in the pharynx and male urethra.
High numbers of elastic fibers. Type of dense connective tissue.
Elastic Dense Connective Tissue
Reticular Connective Tissue
Skeletal Muscle
Stratified Cuboidal
Extremely rare type of epithelial. Found in ducts of sweat and mammary glands
Fibrocartilage
Areolar Connective Tissue
Serve as packing material that cushions and wraps organs. Found under epithelial tissue.
Pseudostratified
Stratified Columnar
Elastic Cartilage
Transitional
Epithelial tissue that can stretch and change the shape. Found in the lining of urinary organs
Elastic Dense Connective Tissue
Allow tissue to bounce back after stretching. Found in walls of arteries, ligaments and lungs
