Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Tissues are: Collections of specialized cells and cell products organized to perform a limited number of functions Histology = study of tissues The four tissue types are: Epithelial Connective Muscular Nervous Tissues and tissue types
Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Includes glands and epithelium Glands are secretory Is avascular Forms a protective barrier that regulates permeability Cells may show polarity Epithelial tissue
Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Physical protection Control permeability Provide sensation Produce specialized secretions Functions of epithelium
Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Perform secretory functions Perform transport functions Maintain physical integrity Ciliated epithelia move materials across their surface Specializations of epithelium
