Ch.5 Muscle And Nervous Tissue, Membranes Flashcards
Transmit impulses
Nervous tissue
Produces movement
Muscle tissue
Heat production
Muscle tissue
How many major types of membranes are there
4 Cutaneous Serous Mucous Synovial
Communication and regulation of body functions
Nervous tissue
Located in epithelial tissue
Covers body surface
Cutaneous
Contact or shorten cell
Muscle tissue
Located in epithelial tissue
Lines body surface open to outside
Mucous membrane
Highly specialized cells which are also fragile
Nervous tissue
Able to stretch and return to shape
Muscle tissue
Located in epithelial tissue, lines cavities not open to the outside of the body
Serous membrane
Vascular- many blood vessels
Muscle tissue
No regeneration
Nervous tissue
Two major types of protein in muscle tissue
Actin
Myosin
Located in connective tissue, lines space in joints between bones
Synovial membrane
