• A type of simple permanent tissue that refers as the internal tissue which consist of a single layer of living cell.
• it serves as the protective outer covering of the leaves, young roots and young stems.
EPIDERMIS
• It produce cutin to protect against loss of water.
EPIDERMIS
• A type of simple permanent tissue that refers to an internal tissue and consist of living cells with thin cell wall.
• found in the soft part of roots, stems, leaves and flowers.
• most of the chlorophyll of leaves are located in this
PARENCHYMA
• It functions as the food manufacturing and food storage.
PARENCHYMA
• A type of simple permanent tissue which is also an internal tissue.
• structurally similar to parenchyma cells except that their walls is irregularly and compactly arranged
COLLENCHYMA
• It is a strengthening or supportive tissue and functions to store food.
COLLENCHYMA
• A type of simple permanent tissue that refers to an internal tissue consist of thick walled, dead cells.
• found in the soft part of the cells, have uniformly thick heavily lignified secondary walls
• plant fibers
SCLERENCHYMA
• Its function is mainly for support.
SCLERENCHYMA
• A type of permanent tissue that consist of more than one type of cell.
COMPLEX PERMANENT TISSUE
• Primarily functions for the transport of water and dissolved substances upward in the plant body.
XYLEM
• Primarily functions in the transport of organic material such as carbohydrates and amino acids.
PHLOEM
• Its main function is to carry oxygen from the lungs and deliver it throughout the body.
RED BLOOD CELLS
Red blood cells can carry oxygen due to a protein called _____________.
HEMOGLOBIN
• It protects your body against infections.
WHITE BLOOD CELLS
• Their primary function is to prevent and stop bleeding.
PLATELETS
• The basic unit of communication in the nervous system (neuron)
NERVE CELLS
• It is also known as soma, and it is the core section of the neuron. This contains genetic information, maintains the neuron’s structure, and provide energy to drive activities.
CELL BODY
• Cell body is also known as ______________.
SOMA
• It carry impulses away from the cell body.
AXON
• It receives electrochemical impluses from other neurons, and carry them inwards and towards the cell body.
DENDRITES
• It refers to the human cells that connect to your bones and allow you to perform a wide range of movements and functions.
SKELETAL MUSCLE CELLS
• Female sex cells produced by the ovaries.
EGG CELL
• Male sex cells produced by the testes.
SPERM CELL
• Group of cells performing special life functions.
TISSUE
• made up of closely-packed cells arranged in flat.
• it forms lining of various cavities and tubes in the body.
• specialized to form the covering or lining of all internal and external body surface.
• absorption, secretion, excretion, sensation and respiration.
EPITHELIAL TISSUES
• It is a single thin layer of flattened cells with irregular boundaries.
• They line the walls of blood vessels and air sacs of lungs.
• Also, they involve in physiological processes like osmosis and diffusion.
SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM
• They line the walls of blood vessels and air sacs of lungs.
SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM
• This usually has protective functions, including protection against microorganisms from invading underlying tissue and/or protection against water loss.
STRATEFIED SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM
• The outer layer of your skin (epidermis) is made of what type of cells?
STRATEFIED SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM CELLS
• It is a cube-like in apperance, meaning they have equal width, height, and depth.
• The major functions of this type of cell are - protection, secretion, and absorption.
CUBOIDAL EPITHELIAL TISSUES
• It is a single layer which is tall and slender with oval-shaped nuclei located in the basal region, attached to the basement membrane.
COLUMNAR EPITHELIAL CELLS
• It lines most organs of the digestive tract including the stomach, and intestines.
SIMPLE COLUMNAR EPITHELIUM
• It hold parts of the body together, such as bones. It forms lining of various cavities and tubes in the body.
• Tissue that supports, protects, and gives structure to other tissues and organs in the body.
• It also stores fat, helps move nutrients and other substances between tissues and organs, and helps repair damaged tissue.
CONNECTIVE TISSUES
• It is a fibrous connective tissue that attaches bone to bone, and usually serves to hold structures together and keep them stable.
LIGAMENTS
• It is a fibrous connective tissue that attaches muscle to bone.
TENDONS
• It is a strong, flexible connective tissue that protects your joints and bones.
CARTILAGE
• It is regarded as specialized form of connective tissue because it originates in the bones and has some fibers.
BLOOD
• Movement is the main function of this tissue.
• They have the ability to contract and this is what brings about the movement of the body.
• They also help to maintain body posture and position. Tissue that supports, protects, and gives structure to other tissues and organs of the body.
MUSCLE TISSUES
• It refers to the muscle that’s not under our conscious control.
• This type of muscle is also called visceral or smooth muscle - produces slow, steady contraction that allow substances, such as food in the digestive tract, to move throughout the body.
INVOLUNTARY MUSCLE
• It is made up of long fibers and they move our bones.
• We can control them and this type of muscle called skeletal muscle, since they are attached to the bones.
VOLUNTARY MUSCLE
• It is a special type of muscle that make up our heart.
• It is an involuntary muscle that is stratified in appearance.
CARDIAC MUSCLE
• It carried electrical and chemical signal and impulses from the brain and central nervous system to the periphery, and vice versa.
• These tissues are made up of specialized cells that are called neurons.
NERVE TISSUES
• Brain, spinal cord and nerves are all composed of what kind of tissue?
NERVE TISSUES
• It control our thoughts, memory and speech, movement of the arms and legs, and the function of many organs within our body.
BRAIN
• It sends motor commands from the brain to the body, send sensory information from the body to the brain, and coordinate reflexes.
SPINAL CORD
• They are like cables that carry electrical impulses between your brain and the rest of your body.
NERVES
a. Accept nerve impulses from CNS
b. Transmit them to muscle or glands
MOTOR NEURONS/EFFERENT
a. Accept impulses from sensory receptors
b. Transmit them to CNS
SENSORY NEURONS/AFFERENT
a. Convey nervous impulses between various parts of CNS
INTERNEURONS/ASSOCIATION
