insterstitial fluid
➹➹➹: fluid located between cells and among tissues
M
cuboidal epithelium
➹➹➹: cube shaped epithelial cells that function in secretion, and are located in various
ED
endocrine glands
ST
simple columnar epithelium
➹➹➹: lines intestines, secretes digestive juices and absorbs nutrients, one cell thick

pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium
D
➹➹➹: forms a mucous membrane in portions of the respiratory tract; contains cilia that
move the film of mucous

collagenous fibers
➹➹➹: made of collagen, nonelastic and do not tear easily
reticular fibers
➹➹➹: made of collagen, joins connective tissue to adjacent tissues, continuous with
M
collagenous fibers
ED
elastic fibers
➹➹➹: made of elastin, easily stretched but bounce back to original shape
ST
sarcomeres
➹➹➹: repeating units in muscles
U
D
glial cells or glia
➹➹➹: located in nervous tissue; nourish, insulate, and replenish neurons
