Neurons Sound

Neuron

• Make up the brain and spinal cord

Home Sound

Bone

• Exceptional ability to support

• Matrix is similar to cartilage

• Works with cartilage

Home Sound

Cartilage

• Hyaline cartilage

• Elastic

• Fibrocartilage

Hyaline Elastic Fibrocartilage Sound

Hyaline

• Also known as gristle

• Most abundant cartilage in the body

• Supports most of respiratory system

Home Sound

Elastic Cartilage

• Identical to Hyaline Cartilage

• Makes up the skeletons of the external ear and the epiglottis

Home Sound

Fibrocartilage

• Intermediate between hyaline and dense refular connective tissues

• Made up of rows of chondrocytes and collagen fibers

Home Sound

Blood

• Transports

• Does not support

• Develops from Mesenchyme

Home Sound

Tissue Proper

• Loose connective tissue

• Dense connective tissue

Loose Connective Dense Connective Sound

Loose Connective

• Fat

• Not very hard or constructive

Home Sound

Dense Connective

• Regular

• Irregular

• Referred to as fibrous connective tissue

Regular Irregular Sound

Regular Dense

• Packed collagen fibers

• Flexible but very strong

• Interacts with bones and muscle

Home Sound

Irregular Dense

• Thicker than regular

• Arranged irregularly

• Fibers are not formed in a uniformed manor

Home Sound

Simple Epithelial

• Single cell layer

• Used in Absorption and Filtration

Simple: Cuboidal Squamous Columnar Sound

Simple Squamous

• Flattened look

• Found in membranes that surround bodily organs

Home Cuboidal Columnar Sound

Simple Cuboidal

• Tall as they are wide

• Form walls of the glands and kidney tubules

Home Squamous Columnar Sound

Simple Columnar

• Closely packed cells

• Aligned in the digestive tract

Home Squamous Cuboidal Sound

Stratified Epithelia

• Consists of two or more cell layers

• Found in high abrasion areas

Stratified: Squamous Cuboidal Columnar Sound

Stratified Squamous

• Most widespread of the stratified epithelia

• Suited for protective role in the body

Home Cuboidal Columnar Sound

Stratified Cuboidal

• Rare in the body

• Found in larger glands

Home Squamous Columnar Sound

Stratified Columnar

• Rare find in the body

• Small amounts are in the pharynx and male urethra

Home Squamous Cuboidal Sound

Skeletal Muscle

• Muscles that make bodily movement

• Attached to cartilage and bone

Home Cardiac Smooth Sound

Smooth Muscle

• With-hold acidic enzymes and fluids

• Mainly found in bodily organs especially in the digestive tract

Home Skeletal Cardiac Sound

Cardiac Muscle

• Found in the walls of the heart

• Does not tire easily
