Question
match the following phrases and examples to the correct type of tissue. bones tightly packed cells strengthened by fibrous layers outer layer of skin short life span and regenerates scattered cells in extracellular matrix done
To solve this, we match each phrase/example to the correct tissue type (Epithelial, Connective, Muscle, Nervous) by recalling their characteristics:
1. “bones”
Bones are a type of connective tissue (specifically osseous tissue), as connective tissues include structures with cells in a matrix (bone matrix has cells + mineralized matrix).
2. “tightly packed cells”
Epithelial tissue has tightly packed cells (no extracellular matrix between them, forming sheets for protection/absorption).
3. “strengthened by fibrous layers”
Connective tissue (e.g., dense connective tissue like tendons/ligaments) has fibrous layers (collagen fibers) for strength.
4. “outer layer of skin”
The outer layer of skin (stratum corneum) is part of epithelial tissue (stratified squamous epithelium).
5. “short life span and regenerates”
Epithelial tissue cells (e.g., skin epithelium) have short lifespans and rapidly regenerate to replace damaged cells.
6. “scattered cells in extracellular matrix”
Connective tissue has cells scattered in a large extracellular matrix (e.g., bone, blood, or loose connective tissue).
Final Matches:
- bones → Connective Tissue
- tightly packed cells → Epithelial Tissue
- strengthened by fibrous layers → Connective Tissue
- outer layer of skin → Epithelial Tissue
- short life span and regenerates → Epithelial Tissue
- scattered cells in extracellular matrix → Connective Tissue
(Note: If the dropdowns include options like “Epithelial,” “Connective,” “Muscle,” “Nervous,” use these labels for each match.)
