Study Set Content:
- is a hard connective tissue that consists of living cells and a mineralized matrix. Osteocytes are located within lacunae.
Bone
Click To Flip the Card
has spaces between trabeculae or plates, of bone and therefore resembles a sponge.
Spongy bone
Click To Flip the Card
- is more solid, with almost no space between many thin layers of mineralized matrix.
Compact bone
Click To Flip the Card
- is a liquid connective tissue
Blood

Blood functions
- transport of food, oxygen, waste, hormoes, and other substances.
Click To Flip the Card
The main function of muscle tissue is to
- contract, or shorten, making movement possible.
Click To Flip the Card
- results from the contractile proteins located within the muscle cells.
Muscle contraction
Click To Flip the Card
The three types of msucle tissue are
skeletal,cardiac, smooth
Click To Flip the Card
- attaches to the skeleton and enables the body to move.
Skeletal muscle
Click To Flip the Card
- are striated, or banded, because of the arrangement of contractile proteins within the cells.
Skeletal muscle cells
Click To Flip the Card
- is the muscle of the heart; it is responsible for pumping blood.
Cardiac muscle
Click To Flip the Card
- are cylindrical but much shorter than skeletal muscle cells.
Cardiac muscle cells
Click To Flip the Card
- are striated and usually have one nucleus per cell.
Cardiac muscle cells
Click To Flip the Card
They are often branched and connected to on another by
intercalated disks
Click To Flip the Card
forms the walls of hollow organs; it is also found in the skin and the eyes.
Smooth muscle
Click To Flip the Card
are tapered at each end, have a single nucleus, and are not striated.
Smooth muscle
Click To Flip the Card
- is responsible for a number of functions, such as moving food through the digestive tract and emptying the urinary bladder.
