Study Notes
Connective Tissue Strength
- Dense connective tissue has minimal matrix yet provides significant strength.
Adipose Connective Tissue Location
- Primarily found beneath the skin, around organs, and in bone marrow.
Endoskeleton of Vertebrates
- Cartilage and bone constitute the endoskeleton in vertebrate bodies.
Hard Matrix in Bones
- The main component is hydroxyapatite, providing rigidity and strength.
Blood Cell Types
- Platelets, red blood cells, and white blood cells are types found in blood; however, lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell.
Fluid Connective Tissue Function
- Transports nutrients, gases, and waste products; includes blood and lymph.
Apical Meristem Function
- Responsible for the growth in length of roots and shoots in plants.
Coconut Husk Composition
- Made up of fibrous connective tissue, providing strength and durability.
Phloem Main Function
- Transports sugars and nutrients produced during photosynthesis from leaves to other plant parts.
Phloem Components
- Sieve tube elements, companion cells, but not xylem are found in phloem.
Epithelial Tissues Characteristics
- They exhibit polarity, with distinct apical and basal layers; involved in protection, secretion, and absorption.
Ciliated Epithelial Tissue
- Respiratory epithelium is characterized by the presence of cilia, aiding in trapping and expelling particles.
Stomata Regulation Cells
- Guard cells regulate the opening and closing of stomata to control gas exchange.
Water and Mineral Transportation
- Xylem is responsible for transporting water and minerals from roots to other plant areas.
Supportive Animal Tissue
- Connective tissue provides structural support and connects different body parts.
Guard Cells Characteristics
- They are typically kidney-shaped; however, they do not have chloroplasts as a defining feature.
Sugar Transport Tissue
- Phloem is responsible for transporting sugars produced during photosynthesis from leaves to other parts.
Protective Plant Tissue
- Epidermis serves as a protective covering on the outer surfaces of leaves, stems, and roots.
