What type muscle cells are arranged in sheets or layers with adjacent muscle cells electrically connected by gap junctions and mechanically connected by dense bodies?

Smooth muscle cells are arranged in sheets or layers with adjacent cells connected by gap junctions and dense bodies. This allows for coordinated contraction and relaxation of muscle tissue.


What is known as fibrous tissue?

The combining form "fasci/o" means "fibrous muscle cover, fascia." The fascia is the soft connective tissue that surrounds and supports the muscles. thanks to northstarlearning.com for the CMA review


A joint that has no joint cavity and exhibits little or no movement would be classified as a?

A fibrous joint. Fibrous joints are connected by dense connective tissue and have minimal to no movement. An example of a fibrous joint is the sutures of the skull.


Which specialized tissue type would you find muscle layers of the small and large intestines?

The muscle layers of the small and large intestines are composed of smooth muscle tissue, which is specialized for involuntary contractions. This smooth muscle is organized into two layers: an inner circular layer and an outer longitudinal layer, facilitating peristalsis and segmentation movements that aid in digestion and absorption.


What type of tissue ensures this phenomenon?

Connective tissue, specifically fibrous connective tissue, plays a key role in ensuring this phenomenon. Fibrous connective tissue provides the strength and support needed for tissues and organs to resist tension and stretching. Examples include ligaments and tendons that connect bones and muscles in the body.

The skin connected to the muscle layers below by a fibrous connective tissue is?

The skin connected to the muscle layers below by fibrous connective tissue is known as the dermis. The dermis contains collagen and elastin fibers, which provide strength and elasticity to the skin. This layer supports the epidermis (the outer skin layer) and houses various structures, including blood vessels, nerves, and hair follicles. The fibrous connective tissue plays a crucial role in anchoring the skin to underlying tissues.

What tissue connects bones together?

Different types of joints are held together by different tissues types:Sutures and gomphoses are held together by dense fibrous connective tissue. Synchondroses are held together by hyaline cartilage.Symphyses are held together by fibrocartilage.Diarthroses or synovial joints, the most common type of joints, are held together by ligaments and joint capsules, which are made of dense fibrous connective tissue.
