1. primary tissue types epithelial, muscle, neural, connective
2. basis for naming epithelial tissues shape and arrangement
3. Muscular tissue functions contractility, produce force and motion, posture, temper-
ature homeostasis
4. smooth muscle spindle shaped, large central nucleus, lines internal or-
gans
5. cardiac muscle striated, intercalated discs, branched, central nucleus,
component of myocardium
6. skeletal muscle striated, long slender fibers, multiple peripheral nuclei,
composes skeletal muscles attached to bones by tendons
7. neural tissue excitability, conductivity, longevity, amitotic
8. epithelial tissue characteristics lines surfaces, avascular, polarity, cellularity, mitotic
9. connective tissues cells surrounded by matrix,
10. simple squamous epithelial single layer of flat, scale-like cells; allow diffusion in alve-
oli and blood vessels
11. simple cuboidal epithelial single layer of cuboidal cells; found in thyroid follicles,
kidney tubules
12. transitional epithelial found in urinary bladder and ureter
13. areolar tissue loose connective tissue forming basal membrane
14. reticular connective tissue forms scaffolding for internal organs; dermal structure
15. compartmentalizes muscles
