Tissue: Structure and Function Chapter 27.2
2
Tissue A group of cells and cell products of similar structure that perform a common function
3
Histology The study of tissues, especially their structure and arrangement
4
Basic Tissue Types Epithelial Epithelial Connective Connective Muscle Muscle Nervous Nervous
6
Organ A group of tissues organized into a functional unit
7
System Organs working together as functional units

Epithelial Tissue Sheet-like layer of cells Sheet-like layer of cells Cover surfaces or line cavities Cover surfaces or line cavities Often has glandular cells for fluid secretion Often has glandular cells for fluid secretion Endothelium Endothelium Epithelium that lines heart, blood vessels and lymphatic vessels Epithelium that lines heart, blood vessels and lymphatic vessels

Epithelial Types Simple Epithelium Simple Epithelium Simple squamous – inside blood vessels Simple squamous – inside blood vessels Simple cuboidal – lines ducts, ex. Kidney tubules, mucus glands Simple cuboidal – lines ducts, ex. Kidney tubules, mucus glands Simple columnar – lining of small intestine Simple columnar – lining of small intestine Pseudostratified Columnar – trachea, bronchi Pseudostratified Columnar – trachea, bronchi

Muscle Tissue Types Smooth Muscle-Found in most organs (=Involuntary Muscle) Smooth Muscle-Found in most organs (=Involuntary Muscle) Ex. Small intestine Ex. Small intestine Skeletal Muscle-Attached to the bones Skeletal Muscle-Attached to the bones (=Voluntary Muscle) Ex. Large muscles of body (=Voluntary Muscle) Ex. Large muscles of body Cardiac Muscle –Heart Cardiac Muscle –Heart pumps blood, part of it dies pumps blood, part of it dies if you have a heart attack.
