    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.
