Neurons - correct answer ✔cells that are specialized for the generation and propagation of
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




action potentials ||||||




Neuroglia - correct answer ✔cells that are anatomical and functional support to neurons |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Epithelial tissue - correct answer ✔consists of cells that form membranes that cover and |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




line body surfaces and of glands that are derived from those membranes
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




one cell thick or multiple cells thick
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




have a basement membrane |||||| |||||| ||||||




Location of epithelia - correct answer ✔-where body fluids must be kept separate from
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




external environment (surface of the skin, lining of the lungs) |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




-in hollow organs where fluids in the lumen must be kept separate from surrounding body
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




fluids (blood vessels) |||||| ||||||




-things only enter the body when they cross the epithelial lining
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Exocrine glands - correct answer ✔secrete molecules to the outside of epithelial membranes
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||

|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




-provide physical support for other tissues |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




-links tissue together either physically or functionally
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||

flowing to and from it |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Types of connective tissue - correct answer ✔connective tissue proper

-tendons and ligaments |||||| ||||||




-adipose
cartilage
blood
bone
lymph
