Tissue
Learning Goals By the end of this unit students will be able to: Describe the structure, function, and importance of tissues Explain the link between cells, tissues, organs, and systems in the human body
Systems Within the Body Determine which organ systems are working together in each of the following scenarios. Which organ systems are working together in this scenario? When you finish exercising, you are hot, tired, and sweating. After a bottle of juice, you feel a lot better. Which organ systems are working together here? When you run, you begin to breathe heavier and faster. Your heart beats more quickly, bringing more oxygen to your cells. Which two organ systems are working together to raise the weights? When you lift weights, your arms bulge and your brain signals them to lift despite the resistance.
What are these organs made up of? Think, Pair, Share: What are these organs made up of? Set up the sheet into 4 quadrants
Tissues Tissues are made up of specialized cells These specialized cells allow for the tissue to perform specific tasks Example: Muscle tissue is made up of cells that contract to help the body move Nerve tissue is made up of cells that carry signals to and from our brain
Epithelial Tissue Epithelial Tissue- is made up of tightly packed cells that cover body surface and line the body’s internal organs and cavities Can be a single layer of cells or many layers of cells
Epithelial Tissue Epithelial tissue with one layer of cells: Thin allowing material to pass through Ex. gas exchange within the lungs Epithelial tissue with many layer of cells: Thick to provide protection Ex. human skin
Connective Tissue Connective tissue- is made up of both specialized cells and non-living substances. Function: supports, and connects the body’s organs
Connective Tissues Examples of connective tissues: Blood Bones + Ligaments Cartilage The bone is made up of bone cells surrounded by non-living material. Bones are connected to each other by elastic ligament tissue. Bone are connected to muscles by inelastic tendons. Blood connects body systems by bringing oxygen and nutrients throughout the body Cartilage cells make up a dense but flexible network
Nerve Tissue Nerve Tissue- specialized tissue that makes up the brain, nerves, and spinal cord Function: Carries electrical signals to and from the brain to control body function
Nerve Tissue Three kinds of nerve cells Sensory neurons- nerves in you skin or sense organs carry information from the body to brain Motor neurons -carries instructions from brain to spinal cord to the body- usually muscles Interneuron-the nerves connects the sensory and motor neurons
Muscle Tissue Muscle Tissue- specialized tissues made up of cells that shorten or contract to allow movement
Summary Epithelial tissue- lines and covers surfaces Connective tissue- protect, support, and bind together Muscular tissue- produces movement Nervous tissue- receive stimuli and conduct impulses
Four Corners: In groups you have 5 mins to come up with an argument as to why your tissue system is most important. Winning Team Receives...
