Document Summary
Epithelial tissue with free surface: therefore a corner of the slide gone: densely packed with cells, no blood vessels, gets nutrients from adjacent tissues through diffusion. Connective tissue is hardest to identify: anything not muscular, nervous, epithelial. Bone blood: lots of space between dark stained cells. Matrix structure that determines tissue type: can be solid (bone, can be liquid (blood) Consists of 2 basic elements (vary from bone to blood but these are consistent: cells. Names and types vary: extracellular matrix. -- don"t cover or line an organ or structure; therefore no free surface -- Cells do not cover or line: they do not have any free surfaces. Is highly vascularized and has a nerve supply (very good blood supply: except tendon (low blood supply) and cartilage (avascular) Tendon has low blood supply (connects bone to muscle) Cartilage has no blood supply (connects bone to bone)
