Is made up of only one layer of cells and, according to cell shape, can be squamous, cuboidal, or pseudostratified.
Primarily formed by type III collagen, a protein found in bones and cartilage, is commonly found as a supporting framework of hematopoietic and lymphoid organs.
Primarily formed by type II collagen, a component of joint cartilage, contains retractile fibers with elastin.
Are made up of very long, cylindrical, multi-nucleated cells capable of quick and forceful contractions that are usually voluntary.
Are usually found in the brain and in the spinal cord except for the cytoplasmic extensions like the axons which form the nerves outside of the central nervous system.
Are tissues formerly derived from meristems but have already assumed various shapes and sizes related to their specific functions as they develop and mature
Found at the tips of shoots and roots which increase in length as the apical meristems produce new cells
Reduction division, producing daughter cells that contain half the genetic information of the parent cell
As the spindle fibers dissolve, a nuclear membrane forms around the chromosomes of each daughter cell
Centromeres joining the chromatids divide, allowing microtubules attached to the kinetochores to pull the sister chromatids apart
The process where diploid cells undergo cell division and differentiation through meiosis to form mature haploid gametes or sex cells.
