1. Muscle and Nerve Tissue

2. Muscle and Nervous Muscle Tissues:
•Capable of contracting or shortening
•Moves body parts
•Produce heat

3. Muscles Tissue Types
1. Skeletal (striated)
2. Smooth
3. Cardiac

4. Skeletal (Striated) Muscle
Under voluntary control.
Thin cells that extend the entire length of muscle; multinucleated.
Location: Attached to bones through entire body
Function: Body movement, heat production

5. Smooth Muscle Unstriated, under involuntary control.
Cells are longer but tapered at the ends; single nucleated, nucleus located in the middle of cell
Location: Walls of organs, blood vessels, eyes, glands, and skin
Function: Move products internally

6. Cardiac Muscle Striated; involuntary control
Single cells with intercalated disks – cell to cell attachment points for communication.
Location: Heart
Function: Blood movement via heart contraction

7. Nervous Tissue Sensitive to change in surrounding
Coordinate, regulate, and integrate body functions.
Function: Receive and Transmit Signals.
Location: Brains, Spinal Cord
