3. Name this specific epithelial tissue?

stratified squamous – non keratinized

4. Name the type of connective tissue at the pointer.

hyaline cartilage

5. What is the tissue type on this slide?

nervous

6. What type of muscle tissue is this?

cardiac

What are the structures at the end of the arrows?

intercalated discs

9. What type of connective tissue is this?

areolar

10. What is the cell type at the pointer?

goblet cell

11. What two epithelial tissues are on this slide?

simple columnar with goblet cells

keratinized stratified squamous

12. What type of epithelial tissue is this?

transitional

13. What is the connective tissue shown here?

reticular

14. What is the type of epithelium shown here?

Stratified squamous – keratinized

15. What type of epithelial tissue is this?

pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium with goblet cells

16. What type of connective tissue is this?

dense irregular

17. What type of epithelial tissue is this?

stratified columnar

18. What type of connective tissue is this?

adipose

19. What type of tissue is this?

elastic tissue

20. What type of muscle tissue is shown here?

cardiac muscle

21. What is the cell type at the pointer?

neuron

22. What is the specific tissue shown here?

skeletal muscle

23. What is the specific tissue shown here?

dense regular CT

24. A) What is this tissue? B) What could you easily confuse it for if you just took a

quick look at it?

A – smooth muscle

B – dense regular… however compare the location and number of nuclei from #23 – remember smooth muscle has a higher level of cell density than dense regular connective tissue!

basement membrane

stratified cuboidal

27. Name the specific tissue.

elastic cartilage

28. Name this specific tissue.

fibrocartilage
