Muscle Contraction Mechanism Excitation, Calcium Activation, Contraction, Relaxation
Autonomic Nervous System Efferent pathways of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) carry information to the autonomic, or visceral, effectors, which are mainly the smooth muscles, cardiac muscle, glands, adipose tissue, and other “involuntary” tissue
The efferent pathways of the ANS can be divided into the sympathetic division and the parasympathetic division.
The sympathetic division is involved in preparing the body to deal with immediate threats to the internal environment. It produces the “fight-or-flight” response.
The parasympathetic pathways coordinate the body’s normal resting activities. The parasympathetic division is thus sometimes called the “rest-and-repair” division.
EPITHELIAL TISSUE Epithelial tissue, or epithelium, often is subdivided into two types: (1) membranous (covering or lining) epithelium and (2) glandular epithelium.
FUNCTIONS OF EPITHELIAL TISSUE Protection, Protection, Sensory functions, Secretion, Absorption. Excretion
