Epithelial tissues cover the surface of the body and form the lining of body cavities, organs, and blood vessels.
Which of the following is listed in order of increasing hierarchization?
basophil>neuroglia>neuron>brain>nervous system
cytoplasm>lysosome>basophil>cardiac muscle tissue>muscular system
monocyte>microtubule>stratified squamos>skin>integumentary system
nucleus>lymphocyte>blood>heart>circulatory system
The four types of tissue are:
collagen, elastic, adipose, reticular
muscle, nervous, epithelial, connective
neuroglia, sensory, motor, interneurons
simple, stratified, squamos, cuboidal

connective... basement
connective... plasma
epidermis... basement
epidermis... plasma
Which of these is NOT a way of classifying the cells and/or tissues of the nervous system?

cardiac muscle cell
squamos cell
totipotent stem cell
None of these easily fall into one of the four main tissue types.

about 500,000
Which of the following distinguishes RBCs from WBCs?
All of these accurately differentiate RBCs from WBCs.
RBCs have hemoglobin, but WBCs do not.
