New cards
31

glandular epithelium

cells that are specialized to produce and secrete substances, makes up the body's glands

New cards
32

connective tissue

most abundant tissue in your body, binds structures together

New cards
33

connective tissue function

provides support, prtoection, framework, fills space, stores fat, produces blood cells, fights infection

New cards
34

connective tissue composed of

scattered cells within a matrix, a ground substance and fibers

New cards
35

common types of connective tissue cells

mast cells, macrophages, fibroblasts

New cards
36

main types of fibers

collagenous and elastic

New cards
37

collagenous fibers

strong, flexible, not very elastic, found in bones, ligaments

New cards
38

elastic fibers

not as strong, very elastic, found in ears, vocal

New cards
39

areolar tissue (loose connective tissue)

binds skin to underlying organs, forms thin membranes throughout body

New cards
40

adipose tissue (fat)

protective cushion, insulation to preserve body heat, stores energy

New cards
41

fibrous connective tissue

thick collagenous fibers and fine network of elastic fibers- few cells, poor blood supply, thus slow healing
