1. Tissue Structure and Function
Chapter 9 in Textbook
Chapter 4 in Lab Book

2. Tissue
An aggregation of cells and cell products of similar structure and embryonic origin that perform a common function

3. The study of tissues, especially their structure and arrangement
Histology
The study of tissues, especially their structure and arrangement

4. Basic Tissue Types
Epithelial
Connective
Muscle
Nervous

6. An aggregation of tissues organized into a functional unit

7. Organs working together as functional units
System
Organs working together as functional units

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

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

13. Pseudostratified Columnar

14. Epithelial Types Stratified Epithelium Stratified squamous - skin
Transitional – urinary tract and bladder

16. Connective Tissue Tissue that connects Loose connective tissue
adipose (fat)
Dense connective tissue
cartilage
Bone
Vascular tissue
Erythrocytes: Red Blood Cells – carry oxygen
Leucocytes: White Blood Cells – part of the immune system
Platelets - clotting

Red Blood Cells

21. Leucocytes: White Blood Cells

23. Muscle Tissue Types Smooth Muscle (=Involuntary Muscle)
Ex. Small intestine
Skeletal Muscel (=Voluntary Muscle)
Ex. Large muscles of body
Cardiac Muscle

25. Nervous Tissue Includes Nerves, Spinal Cord, Brain
Cells are called neurons
