lecture 3 Flashcards
define tissues
– Groups of cells similar in structure that perform
common or related func2on
the study of tissues is called
histology
how many primary tissues are there
4
list the 4 primary tissues
Epithelial Tissue
Connective tissue
Muscle Tissue
• Nerve Tissue
epthelial tissues:
covers
connective tissue:
supports
muscle tissue
produces movment
nerve tissue
controls
what 3 things have nervous tissue
brain spinal cord and nerves
nervous tissue is used for
internal communication
what are the smallest unit of life
. Cells are the smallest functional unit of life , the smallest thing , that can carry out all of the necessary functions of life.
how many kinds of epithelial tissue are there?
2 covering/ linning and glandular
what does epthelial tissue do ?
forms boundaries between the external and internal envrionments
give an example of epithelilal tissues
Like the skin, it can also form boundaries in side of our bodies like digestive system. You find this in the lining of digestive track organs and on the epidermis.
glandular is a type of ….?
epithelial tissue
where is glandular tissue found
• Glandular: They are tissues that are found in glands that are involved in the secreting molecules, and hormones.
describe covering and linning epithelial tissue
• Covering and lining epithelial tissue: this is the tissue that is found on external and internal environments. For example our skin, lining of the digestive tract. They are cells that provide some kind of covering.
what is the function of connective tissue
This tissue provides support protection and binding other tissues together.
in a bone a kind of connective tissue
yea
give 2 examples of connectivve tissue
bones and tendons
what is the most abundant primary tissue
connective tissue
blood is what kind of tissue
connective tissue
tendons are what kind of tissue
connective
how many kinds of muscle tissue are thre
3
what is the primary function of muscle tissue
It is primarily involved in motion, it is responsible for most types of movement.
list the 3 kinds of muscle tissue
skeletal muscle tissue , cardiac tissue , smooth muscle tissue
describe skeletal muscle tissue
Skeletal Muscle tissue: skeletal muscles are muscles that are attached to our bones, they give us leverage so we can move our bones around
describe cardiac muscle tissue
Cardiac Muscle Tissues: There is cardiac tissue this is found in the our in heart. This is involved in the beating of our heart. When our heart is beating, it is cardiac muscle that is providing it.
describe smooth muscle tissue
Smooth Muscle Tissue: There is also smooth muscle this is associated with hollow organs like the stomach and intestines. As food is moving through our stomach it is moving through peristosis, basically it is contracting, moving the food along
what are the 2 involuntary muscles
Smooth Muscle & Cardiac Muscle
what is the only kind of muscle that we can control
skeletal tissue
nervous tissue makes up the …
nervous system
nerouvus tissue is found in these 3 places
brain , spinal cord and nerves
nervous tissue plays a role in…
regulating and controlling body functions.
Homeostatic response is coordinated and mediated through the…
nervous system
name the 2 kinds of cells that make uo nervous tissue
- Neurons: specialized nerve cells that propagate action potentials
- Neuralgia: supportive cells that insulate and help nerve cells
bones are a kind of …..
skeletal tissue
what is cartilage mostly made of
water
what is one main function of cartilage
provides cushioning
cartilage provides cushining between ….
joints and bones
Does cartialge contain blood vessels
no
