Chapter 5 Tissues
2
Tissues TISSUES: Organization or communities of similar cells often embedded in nonliving intracellular material called matrix. Histology - The study of tissues
3
Types of Tissue Epithelial Connective Muscle Nervous
Appear within 2 months of fetal development.
4
Epithelial Tissue Epithelial - lack blood vessels (avascular), therefore they receive oxygen through diffusion. Function: Protection - skin, mouth, stomach, etc. Sensory - skin, nose, ears Secretion - hormones, mucus, digestive juices Absorption - respiration, gut Excretion - urine from kidneys
5
Structure of Epithelial Tissue
Cells are tightly packed, little intracellular material. Always contains one free surface and one surface attached to a basement membrane = connective tissue. Membranous - thin tissue layer Squamous - flat, platelike: blood vessels, alveoli Columnar - narrow, cylindrical: uterine lining Cuboidal - cubed shaped: glands Simple - one layer of cells Stratified - multiple layers of cells Pseudostratified columnar - single layer of cylinders of different heights
6
Simple Squamous Squamous – flat, platelike: blood vessels, alveoli
7
Simple Columnar Columnar – narrow, cylindrical: uterine lining
8
Simple Cuboidal Cuboidal – cubed shaped: glands
9
Stratified Squamous Stratified – multiple layers of cells
10
Pseudostratified Columnar
Pseudostratified Columnar – single layer of cylinders at different heights
11
Structure of Epithelial Tissue Continued
Glandular - specialized for secretion - function singularly or in clusters - exocrine – discharges secretions into ducts that open onto surfaces like the skin and digestive tract (ex. tearducts) - endocrine – discharges secretions into blood or tissue fluid. ex. Thyroid, pituitary
12
Classified according to the way they secrete their products.
Types of exocrine glands: a. Merocrine – releases fluid by exocytosis i. Serous cells in the linings of the body cavity ii. Mucus cells in the linings of the digestive and respiratory systems. Ex. Salivary glands, sweat glands, Pancreatic glands.
13
b. Apocrine – Lose small portions of their glandular cell bodies. Ex
b. Apocrine – Lose small portions of their glandular cell bodies. Ex. Mammary glands.
14
Holocrine – entire cell released with fluid
Ex. Sebaceous glands in skin
15
Transitional Epithelium:
Note scalloped edges of cells on free surface! Specialized to change in response to increased tension. (Expandable) Found in inner lining of urinary bladder and lines the ureters and part of the urethra.
16
Transitional epithelium changes its appearance with stretching
Transitional epithelium changes its appearance with stretching. The epithelium on the left is relaxed and the cells appear stacked. On the right, the epithelium is stretched,the epithelial cells flatten and the overall epithelium becomes thinner.

27
Connective Tissue Function Attachment
muscle to muscle muscle to bone Support - organs and body as a whole. produce blood cells store fat serve as framework Defense mechanism - fight against infection and repair tissue damage.
28
Connective Tissue Structure Types Cells far apart
Have matrix (intercellular material-fluids, fibers, etc…) between cells. Types Adipose Cartilage Bone Blood
29
Types of Connective Tissue
Adipose – fat cells Protective covering around organs Insulation Distribution is different in males and females Stores energy
30
Types of Connective Tissue Continued
Cartilage – dense fibrous shock absorbers heals very slowly (no direct blood supply) Types Hyaline – most common, found on the ends of bone. b. Elastic – more elastic, found on ears Fibrocartilage – tough tissue, pads between disks in vertebrae.
31
Types of Connective Tissue Continued
Hyaline Elastic Fibrocartilage
32
Types of Connective Tissue Continued
Bone Specialized to form blood Allows attachment for muscle
33
Types of Connective Tissue Continued
Blood – liquid state Oxygen movement Red (transports gases), white (fight infection), and platelet cells (blood clotting) Plasma = fluid portion Defense against bacteria Ischemia = decrease oxygen supply to organs
35
Muscle Tissue Function Types Movement through contraction Skeletal
Smooth Cardiac
36
Muscle Tissue Continued
Skeletal Striated and voluntary Muscles attached to bone Controllable
37
Muscle Tissue Continued
Smooth Involuntary Found in the walls of hollow internal organs
38
Muscle Tissue Continued
Cardiac Striated and involuntary Only found in the heart
39
Nervous Function Types Regulate and integrate communication Neurons
Neuroglia
40
Nervous Continued Neurons – send and receive messages
Neuroglia – connect and support neurons
41
Nervous Continued Structure Soma – body of neuron
Axon – carries impulses away from neuron Dendrite – carries impulses to neuron
