How does connective tissue differ from the other three major tissue types? (Activity 40C)
|
| Connective tissue often consists of relatively few cells embedded in an extracellular matrix. |
| Connective tissue consists of contractile proteins. |
| Connective tissue consists of cells capable of transmitting electrical impulses. |
| There are three types of connective tissue. |
| Connective tissue is found lining body surfaces. |
|
|
|
Which of these describes loose connective tissue? (Activity 40C)
|
| It is a loose weave of fibers that functions as a packing material. |
| It is composed of many fibers that connect bone to bone and muscle to bone. |
| It is a rigid material that provides structural support. |
| It transports nutrients and gases from one part of the body to another. |
| It plays a role in padding, insulation, and energy storage. |
|
|
|
Cartilage is found _____. (Activity 40C)
|
| surrounding organs such as the kidneys |
| in the heart |
| at the ends of bones such as the femur |
| covering the surface of your body |
| connecting one bone to another |
|
|
|
_____ is the connective tissue specialized for transport. (Activity 40C)
|

|
|
|
A neuron consists of _____. (Activity 40D)
|
| a cell body only |
| dendrites only |
| axons only |
| dendrites, a cell body, and axons |
| striations |
|
|
|
Nervous tissue functions _____. (Activity 40D)
|
| as a physical barrier to the invasion of pathogens |
| to physically move the body |
| to sense stimuli |
| to physically support the body |
| in the absorption of nutrients |
|
|
|
What type of muscle is responsible for contractions of the digestive tract and arteries? (Activity 40E)
|
| smooth muscle |
| skeletal muscle |
| striated muscle |
| voluntary muscle |
| cardiac muscle |
|
|
|
Cardiac muscle is the only muscle composed of _____ fibers. (Activity 40E)
|
| branched |
| unstriated |
| unbranched and cylindrical |
| spindle shaped |
| striated |
|
|
|
_____ muscle is attached to bones. (Activity 40E)
|
| Smooth |
| Involuntary |
| Cardiac |
| Branched |
| Skeletal |
|
|
|
Which of these is an example of negative feedback? (Activity 40E)
|
| As a blood clot begins to form, the process of its formation gets faster and faster. |
| After you eat, glucagon stimulates an increase in blood sugar levels. |
| After you eat, insulin stimulates the lowering of blood sugar levels. |
| The
digestive enzyme pepsinogen is converted to pepsin by the action of hydrochloric
acid; pepsin itself can then convert pepsinogen into pepsin. |
| Once labor begins, contractions increase in frequency and intensity. |
