Question

fill in the blank: read the following statements carefully. fill in the blank with the correct word. please write legibly. (1 point per written answer)
type of tissue | cells that make it up | where in the body found?

1. | squamous, cuboidal, columnar | covering external and internal surfaces

nervous | 2. | nerves and the brain
connective tissue | collagen, elastin, proteins | 3.

1. | smooth, skeletal and cardiac cells | attached to bones, organs, the heart
2. ________ is the form of cell division that makes sperm and egg cells. ________ is the form of cell division that makes all the other cells of the body.

Explanation:

For the table (Tissue - related blanks):

1. Blank 1 (Type of Tissue): The cells are squamous, cuboidal, columnar, and it covers external and internal surfaces. This describes Epithelial tissue. So the correct word is "Epithelial".
2. Blank 2 (Cells that make it up - Nervous tissue): Nervous tissue is made up of neurons (and neuroglia). So the correct word is "Neurons (and neuroglia)" (commonly "Neurons" is acceptable for a basic answer).
3. Blank 3 (Where in the body found - Connective Tissue): Connective tissue is found in many places like bones, ligaments, tendons, blood, etc. But the original wrong entry was "Newtons" (a mistake), the correct description for where connective tissue is found can be "Throughout the body (e.g., bones, ligaments, blood, etc.)" but for the context of filling the blank with the correct tissue - related location, since connective tissue is widespread, a simple answer could be "Throughout the body" (or more specific like "Bones, ligaments, blood vessels, etc."). However, if we consider the error in the original (it had "Newtons" which is a unit, not a tissue location), the correct cells for connective tissue are collagen, elastin, etc. (the cells are fibroblasts, chondrocytes, osteocytes, etc. but the table says "Collagen, elastin, proteins" as what makes it up, and the location for connective tissue is various, like "Bones, ligaments, tendons, blood, etc."). But maybe the intended answer for the location of connective tissue is a general "Throughout the body" or specific like "Bones, ligaments, etc."
4. Blank 4 (Type of Tissue): The cells are smooth, skeletal, and cardiac cells. This describes Muscle tissue. So the correct word is "Muscle Tissue".

For the cell division blanks (Question 5):

• The form of cell division that makes sperm and egg cells (gametes) is Meiosis.
• The form of cell division that makes all the other cells of the body (somatic cells) is Mitosis.

Final Answers for each blank:

1. Epithelial
2. Neurons (or Neurons and neuroglia)
3. Throughout the body (or specific locations like Bones, ligaments, etc.)
4. Muscle Tissue
5. Meiosis; Mitosis
