PART B. TYPES OF CONNECTIVE TISSUES7. BLOOD:Blood is considered a (highlight one: fluid, loose, dense, semisolid, or solid) connective tissue. Unlike otherconnective tissues, blood has a liquid ECM (extracellular matrix) calledand hormones in the blood.which transports nutrients, waste,Draw blood connective tissue.Red bloodcells.Plasma-Draw what you see. Label the cells and fibers (reticularfibers).PlateletsIn the plasma, you should see 3 types of cells or structures:Erythrocytesare known as red blood cells.They are the tiny pink dots all over the image. Red blood cells carry oxygen in the blood. They do not have nuclei.leukocytes are known as white blood cells. They are the larger, purple dots scattered throughout theimage. White blood cells help with immune response and they DO have nuclei. __Platelets_are proteins (non-cellular components) that help with the blood clotting immune response. You may not be able to see them on theimage (too low magnification and quality).8. RED BONE MARROW:Hematopoieticstem cells (HSCs)Red bone marrow is made of connective tissue, which is considered a (circle one: fluid, loose, dense,semisolid, or solid) connective tissue. Reticular tissue has a network of fibers loosely packed, not dense.Purple cells, mostly leukocytes, fill the spaces between the fibers. That's why you can also find reticular tissue inimmune system organs such as lymph nodes and the spleen. In red bone marrow, these leukocytes are actuallyhematopoietic stem cells, or baby blood cells.Bloodvesselard+9aARed bloodcellsWhite bloodcellWhite bloodcellsSpaces containingred marrowColumns of bone.PlateletsSpongy boneCompact bone6

T/F question Connective tissue covers body surfaces and lines internal cavities. Squamous tissue consists of flat, thin epithelial cells. Endocrine glands secrete hormones. Fibroblast cells associated with loose connective tissue secrete a matrix material containing collagen fibers. Platelets are red blood cells that carry oxygen.

One way to characterise biological tissue is to send a small electrical current through the tissue and measure the opposition to flow of that current through the tissue. In humans, the resistivity of fat is considerably greater than for muscle, which in turn is considerably greater than for blood and other body fluids. This can be used to analyse body composition, in particular, to estimate body fat percentage. (a) Using a simple model of fat versus non-fat tissue, draw a circuit diagram to represent the possible flows of current through the tissue. (b) Why would the analysis of body composition need to take into account the height and weight of the person? (c) How could the level of hydration or electrolyte abnormalities in the person affect the results of the analysis? DII Prt Scn a Home 9 F4 ES F6 F7 2$ & 4 6 7 8. 9
A white blood cell travels through blood vessels along with red blood cells. A signal from the inside the tissue results in the white blood cell stopping, attaching to the vessel surface, and moving in between adjacent cells that line the blood vessel wall to enter the underlying tissue. Which structure is required for the cell to stop moving? cellulose O integrins O keratin O kinesin
The structure in the lungs known as the respiratory membrane is where gases are exchanged- oxygen leaves the lungs and enters the blood, and carbon dioxide leaves the blood and enters the lungs. The respiratory membrane is composed of two extremely thin layers of simple squamous epithelium. Explain how the structure of the respiratory membrane follows its function.
