Animal tissues
Histology: is the science that study animal tissues
Types of animal tissues: 1.Epithelial tissues. 2.Connective tissues 3.Muscular tissues 4.Nervous tissues
Epithelial tissues: Characteristics: 1.Lining surfaces. 2.Closely aggregated cells. 3.Very little amounts of intercellular substances. 4.Basement membrane below epithelial tissue
Shapes of epithelial tissues 1. irregular: squamous 2. cube-shaped: cuboidal 3. column-shaped: columnar
Number of layers 1.simple. 2.Stratified 3.Pseudostratified.
Cilia on epithelial tissue 1.Ciliated 2.Non-ciliated
Simple squamous epithelium
Simple cuboidal epithelium Kidney tubules
Simple columnar epithelium Villi of small intestine
Pseudostratified columnar ciliated ep.
Connective tissues 1.Connect between two parts of the body 2.High amounts of inter cellular substances 3.Fibers in matrix
Connective tissues 1.Loose connective tissues a.Connect between skin and underlining tissues. b.Visceral 1.Dens connective tissues Dens fibers
Loose connective tissue Areolar connective tissue
Adipose tissue
Dens connective tissue 1.Tendon: connect between muscles and bone 2.Ligament: connect between bones
tendon
Cartilage Chondrocyte ( cartilage cell) Types: 1.Hyaline cartilage. 2.Elastic cartilage 3.Fibro cartilage
Hyaline cartilage
Elastic cartilage
Bones 1.Solid connective tissue. 2.Solid matrix (ossien) Types: - Spongy bone - Combact bone
Spongy bone and combact bone 1.Spongy bone: bar-like extensions called trabaculae 2.Combact bone: haversian systems
Combact bone (haversian system)
Blood Components of blood: 1.White blood cells (leukocytes). 2.Red blood cells (erythrocytes). 3.Platelets. 4.plasma
Leukocytes
Muscular tissue
Skeletal muscle 1.Responsible for voluntary movement 2.Striated 3.Locate beside bones
Cardiac muscles 1.Responsible for involuntary movement. 2.Striated 3.Located in heart
Smooth muscles 1.Responsible for involuntary movement. 2.Non striated. 3.Located in digestive system.
Nervous tissue Nerve cell ( neuron)
Spinal cord
