DOK Level 1: Recall

Which type of tissue is characterized by having a matrix with varying amounts of fibers and ground substance?

• Connective Tissue

• Muscle Tissue

• Nervous Tissue

• Epithelial Tissue

Tags

DOK Level 1: Recall

Explain how epithelial tissue is adapted to its function of protection.

• It has a rich blood supply.

• It has tightly packed cells with minimal extracellular matrix.

• It contains many nerve endings.

• It has a high degree of elasticity.

DOK Level 2: Skill/Concept

Describe the role of connective tissue in the body.

• It transmits electrical impulses.

• It contracts to produce movement.

• It supports, binds, and protects other tissues and organs.

• It covers and lines body surfaces.

DOK Level 1: Recall

What is the main characteristic that distinguishes nervous tissue from other types of tissue?

• Ability to contract

• Presence of a matrix

• Ability to conduct electrical impulses

• Ability to regenerate quickly

DOK Level 1: Recall

Compare and contrast the structure of skeletal muscle tissue and smooth muscle tissue.

• Both have striations and are under voluntary control.

• Skeletal muscle has striations and is under voluntary control, while smooth muscle lacks striations and is under involuntary control.

• Both lack striations and are under involuntary control.

• Skeletal muscle lacks striations and is under involuntary control, while smooth muscle has striations and is under voluntary control.
