TEAS TEST
Epithelial Tissue - ANSWER tissue in which cells are joined together tightly. Skin
tissue is an example
Connective Tissue - ANSWER tissue may be dense, loose or fatty. It protects and
binds body parts.
Cartilage Tissue - ANSWER Cushions and provides structural support for body
parts. Its has a jelly-like base and is fibrous.
Blood - ANSWER transports oxygen to cells and removes wastes. It also carries
hormones and defends against disease.
Bone - ANSWER A hard tissue that supports and protects softer tissue and
organs. Its marrow produces red blood cells.
Muscle - ANSWER Tissue helps support and move the body. The three types of
muscle tissue are smooth, cardiac, and skeletal.
Nervous - ANSWER Cells called neurons form a network through the body that
control responses to changes in the external and internal environment. Some send
signals to muscles and glands to trigger responses.
Integumentary system - ANSWER this system:
-protects the body from abrasion and bacterial attack
-Serves as a control mechanism for internal temperature.
-Provides a reserve of blood vessels that can be used as necessary
-Produces vitamin D for metabolic purpose
Epidermis - ANSWER Top layer of the skin
Dermis - ANSWER consists of dense connective tissue which protects the body,
pigments - ANSWER What determines the skin color?
Keratinization - ANSWER process results in a new layer of top skin in humans
every month or so.
Helps the skin heal itself after minor injuries and forms a barrier against toxic
substances and bacterial infections.
Movement - ANSWER the action of skeletal muscles on bones moves the body.
Mineral storage - ANSWER Bone serve as storage facilities for essential mineral
ions
Support - ANSWER Bones act as a framework and support system for the organs
