Chapter 2 Structure and Function of Cells, Tissues, and Organs Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.
Structure and Function of Cells, Tissues, and Organs: Learning Objectives After reading this chapter, the student will be able to: Discuss how the various tissues of the body build on one another. Describe the components of specific organ systems, such as the integumentary system, digestive system, respiratory system, vascular system, lymphatic system, endocrine system, urinary system, reproductive system, and special senses. List the general function of each of these organ systems. Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. 2

Blood Conducts oxygen to the cells Returns carbon dioxide from the cells to the lungs Clots to prevent blood loss Regulates pH through a buffer system Regulates body temperature Provides protection from bacteria through its phagocytic and antigenic properties Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. 17
Blood Erythrocytes (red blood cells) Leukocytes (white blood cells) Granular Neutrophils Eosinophils Basophils Nongranular Lymphocytes Monocytes Platelets Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. 18
Blood Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. 19
Lymphocytes Become functional in the bone marrow Are responsible for the humorally activated immune system Circulate in the lymphatic vessels and in the bloodstream Function wherever they are called on by antigen actions Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. 20
Muscle Tissue The basis of motion in a muscle cell is the change from chemical to mechanical energy by enzymatic cleavage of ATP. Results from the action of two proteins: Actin Myosin Three types of muscles: Skeletal or voluntary Smooth or involuntary Cardiac Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier Inc. 21
