Anatomy Ch.5 Test Crossword
Down:
2) Cells divide in the deeper layers, and newer cells push older ones farther outward, where they become flattened. Younger cells cuboidal, older cells flattened. Forms lining of oral cavity, anal canal, and vagina.3) Is a very tough tissue, contains many collagenous fibers. Fibrocartilage are pads between vertebrae that are shock absorbers.4) Consists of many closely packed, thick, collagenous fibers and a fine network of elastic fibers. Dense connective tissue is also the main tissue of tendons and ligaments.5) Is specialized to change in response to increased tension. It forms to inner lining of the urinary bladder and lines the ureters and part of the urethra.7) It coordinates, regulates, and integrates body functions, muscle that lacks striations, striated and involuntary, contains neurons and neuroglial cells, and moves food through the digestive tract8) Is found in muscles that attach to bones and are controlled by conscious effort. Skeletal muscle are muscles that are attached to bones, an transmits impulses along CELLULAR processes.11) A group of similar cells that performs a specialized function17) Function: Protection, secretion, absorption, excretion. Location: Cover body surfaces, cover and line internal organs, compose glands. Distinguishing Characteristics: Lack blood vessels, readily divides; cells are tightly packed.18) Function: Transmit impulses for coordination, regulation, integration, and sensory reception. Location: Brain, spinal cord, and nerves. Distinguishing Characteristics: Cells connect to each other and other body parts.22) Is the most rigid connective tissue. |
Across:
1) Forms delicate, thin membranes throughout the body. Areolar tissue also binds skin to underlying organs, have cells arranged around central canal, and forms delicate, thin layers between muscles.6) Appear stratified or layered, but they are not. Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium commonly possesses cilia that move dust and mucus out of the airways, and nuclei is located at different levels within the cells.9) Transports a variety of materials between interior body cells and those that exchange substances within the external environment. 10) Bind structures, provide support and protection, serve as frameworks, fill spaces, store fat, produce blood cells, protect against infections, and help repair tissue damage. Connective tissue cells are farther apart than epithelial cells, and they have an abundance of intercellular material, or matrix between them. This matrix consists of fibers and a ground substance whose consistency varies from fluid to semisolid to solid. Connective tissue cells usually divide. These tissues have varying degrees of vascularity, but in most cases, they have good blood supplies, such as bone and cartilage, are quite rigid. Loose connective tissue (areolar), adipose tissue, and dense connective tissue are more flexible12) Is a single layer of thin, flattened cells. Simple Squamous Epithelium forms walls of capillaries and air sacs of lungs, and forms linings of trachea and bronchi.13) Function: Bind, support, protect, fill spaces, store fat, and produce blood cells. Location: Widely distributed throughout the body. Distinguishing Characeristics: Mostly have good blood supply; cells are farther apart than cells of epithelia, with matrix in between 14) Contains a dense network of elastic fibers and thus is more flexible than hyaline cartilage. Elastic cartilage provides the framework for the outer ear and for parts of the larynx.15) Forms lining of stomach and intestines, and nuclei located near basement membrane.16) Is a specialized form of loose connective tissue that develops when certain cells (adipocytes) stores fat in droplets within their cytoplasm and enlarge. Adipose tissue also functions as heat insulator beneath skin, contains large amounts of fluid and lacks fibers, provides stored energy supply in fat vacuoles, and cells are greatly inlarged with nuclei pushed to sides.19) Is the most common type of cartilage. It has very fine collagenous fibers in its matrix and looks somewhat like white glass. It also forms the flexible soft part of the nasal septum, and forms supporting rings of respiratory passages.20) Function: Movement. Location: Attached to bones, in the walls of hollow internal organs, like the heart. Distinguishing Characteristics: Contractile.21) Consists of several layers of cube-shaped, elongated, and irregular cells, and lines kidney tubules and ducts of salivary glands.23) A layer of nonliving material that anchors epithelial tissue to underlying connective tissue.24) Is only in the heart. It also contains intercalated discs, striated and voluntary, and muscle that composes the heart. |
