I have to know the 15 tissues (what they look like), their location, plus functions!
anyone have any tips or suggestions? how am I supposed to remember where the stratified squamous epithelium is located?? or remember the function of the hyaline cartilage? I only have 3 days until the quiz:banghead:
I've made flashcards but nothing seems to be sticking to my memory. except adipose because that's easy and means fat and insulates.

Hey good luck on your test tomorrow! I just had a similiar quiz today for lab...and all I did was make flashcards..go over them and over them ..and over them!( I know it's hard to stick b/c you can mix them up) and also try explaining it to someone..that always helps....maybe visuals will help you too
Anyone who was emailed the spreadsheet by BusyMomof4 on the tissues, can someone please email it to me. You can private message me or attach it here. I have a test today on it and I left the sheet at home. I am leaving here at 1:00 p.m. CA time.
Aaaaah Yesss... The good old tissues...just like the krebs cycle and ATP production it will haunt you all the way to graduation and keep popping up in just about every class that you take. What I did was cut and pasted them on note cards to get a visual and found some ordinary everyday objects to relate them to. Like hyaline cartilage and adipose tissue looks like jello (gross I know but it helped) and think about the organ and the function and what happens like in your large intestine mucus is produced so you know it will be a a tissue with goblet cells that produce mucus and your bladder stretches so it will be a tissue that has to stretch. You can accomplish alot with deductive reasoning. Hopes this helps
Collect, from the Internet, various images of slides of the different tissues so you can compare and contrast even examples of the same tissues so you can identify them more easily. Relying on just one example, say from a textbook, can hurt you when lab practicals come around.

Be sure to leave your computer speakers on, because on some pages, she speaks over the slides, and her explanations are very helpful.
I love that site!
