Tissue | Function |
Covering and Lining Epithelial | Covers body and organ surfaces; lines internal spaces. |
Glandular Epithelial | Produce products and release from cell. |
Connective Tissue | Binds, supports, & strengthens organs. |
Connective Tissue | Protects and insulates organs. |
Connective Tissue | Main source of stored energy. |
Connective Tissue | Main transport system. |
Connective Tissue | Main site of your immune responses. |
Connective Tissue | Never exposed to outside air & is regenerative. |
Epithelial Tissue | Closely packed. |
Epithelial Tissue | Attached by an underlying connective tissue by an uncellular basement membrane. |
Epithelial Tissue | The surface opposite the basement membrane is not attached. |
Epithelial Tissue | This tissue is avascular but inervated. |
Epithelial Tissue | This tissue is highly regenerative. |
Connective Tissue | Consists of relatively few, loosely arranged cells. |
Connective Tissue Proper | "Average Joes", bind tissues and support organ structure. |
Loose Connective Tissue | Most common tissue; Attaches skin to underlying muscles; site for many immune reactions. |
Adipose Tissue | Found beneath skin and around internal organs. |
Adipose Tissue | Fat storage; Serves as a protective cushion for internal organs. |
Fibrous Connective Tissue | This tissue has a poor blood supply so it is slow in healing. |
Fibrous Connective Tissue | This tissue is characterized by an abundance of tighty packed collagen cells. |
Fibrous Connective Tissue | Tendons & Ligaments ; Deep layer of skin ; Elastic |
Specialized Connective Tissues | Cartilage, Bone, Blood |
Cartilage | Able to withstand more force then the tissues in the Connective Tissue Proper due to the collagen and elastic fibers. |
Cartilage | Body's cushions between bones ; absorbs force so bones are not abused. |
3 types of cartilage | Hyaline, Elastic, Fibrocartilage |
Hyaline Cartilage | Tip of nose, attaches ribs to breast bone; allows ribcage to expand while breathing. |
Hyaline Cartilage | "Average" - strength, elasticity, and resiliance. |
Elastic Cartilage | Not "average" - lots of elastic, very flexible. |
Elastic Cartilage | Entire outer ear. |
Fibrocartilage | Lots of collagen, excessively strong. |
Fibrocartilage | Knee cartilage, between every bone in the vertebra. |
Bone Tissue | Hardest and most rigid because of a solid matrix ; calcuim salts in matrix. |
Blood Tissue | Red blood cells, White blood cells, & Platelets. |
Muscle Tissue | Responsible for motion, posture, and heat generation. |
Skeletal Muscle | Contract & move bones (Attached to bones) ; Voluntary |
Cardiac Muscle | Makes heart muscle contract (Heart muscle) ; Involuntary |
Smooth Muscle | Controls other internal organs (stomach, bladder, uterus) ; Involuntary |
Nerve Tissue | Composed of 2 classes of cells ; Neurons and Neuroglia. |
