Tissues: The living fabric Ch 4 c Membranes, Nervous, and Muscle Tissue
2
Membranes Cutaneous, Mucous, and Serous
3
Cutaneous, Mucous, and Serous Membranes Composed of epithelium tissue bound to connective tissue proper. Considered simple organs
4
Cutaneous Membranes Figure 4.9a Skin Exposed to air, considered a dry membrane
5
Cutaneous Membranes Figure 4.9a Consists of a keratinized stratified squamous epithelium (epidermis) firmly attached to a thick layer of dense irregular connective tissue (dermis)
6
Mucous Membranes Figure 4.9b Lines body cavities open to the exterior (digestive, respiratory, and urogenital tracts)
7
Mucous Membranes Figure 4.9b Epithelial tissue upon a layer of loose connective tissue, then sometimes smooth muscle
8
Mucous Membranes Figure 4.9b Considered Wet or moist membranes
9
Serous membranes Moist membranes found in closed ventral body cavities Simple squamous epithelium resting on a thin layer of loose connective areolar tissue
10
Serous membranes Serous fluid lubricates the facing surfaces of the parietal (wall) and visceral (organs). –Remember this is a double membrane with the serous fluid between the layers
11
Serous membranes Serous membranes named according to where they are and the organs they are associated with
12
Serous membranes Pleura – lining the thoracic wall and covering the lungs Pericardium – enclosing the heart Peritoneums – abdominopelvic cavity and visceral organs
13
Nervous Tissue
14
Consists of branched neurons with long cellular processes and supporting cells Supporting cells are nonconducting cells that support, insulate, and protect the delicate neurons.
15
Nervous Tissue Neurons transmits electrical signals from sensory receptors to effectors Found in the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves
16
Nervous Tissue Figure 4.10
17
Muscle Tissue
18
Highly cellular Well-vascularized 3 types –Skeletal –Cardiac –smooth
19
Skeletal Muscle Long, cylindrical cells, also called muscle fibers Multinucleated with obvious striations (bands) Initiates and controls voluntary movement Found in skeletal muscles that attach to bones or skin
20
Skeletal muscle tissue Figure 4.11a Long, cylindrical, multinucleate cells with obvious striations Initiates and controls voluntary movement Found in skeletal muscles that attach to bones or skin
21
Cardiac Muscle Tissue Branching, striated, uninucleate cells interlocking at intercalated discs Propels blood into the circulation Found in the walls of the heart
22
Cardiac muscle Figure 4.11b Branching, striated, uninucleate cells interdigitating at intercalated discs Propels blood into the circulation Found in the walls of the heart
23
Smooth Muscle Tissue Sheets of spindle-shaped cells with central nuclei and no striations Propels substances along internal passageways (by peristalsis) Found in the walls of hollow organs
24
Smooth Muscle Tissue Figure 4.11c
25
Muscle Tissue Skeletal muscle is voluntary muscle Cardiac and Smooth muscles are involuntary muscles
26
What happens when there is trauma to tissue?
27
Tissue Trauma Causes inflammation, characterized by: –Dilation of blood vessels –Increase in vessel permeability –Redness, heat, swelling, and pain
28
Tissue Repair Figure 4.12a Severed blood vessels bleed Inflammatory chemicals are released
29
Tissue Repair Figure 4.12a Local blood vessels dilate and become more permeable This allows white blood cells and clotting proteins to invade injured site
30
Tissue Repair Figure 4.12a Clotting proteins initiate clotting, surface dries and forms a scab
31
Tissue Repair Figure 4.12b Granulation tissue is formed Capillary buds invade the clot, restoring vascular supply
32
Tissue Repair Figure 4.12b Fibroblasts secrete collagen, which bridges the gap Macrophages phagocytize dead and dying cell debris
33
Tissue Repair Figure 4.12b Surface epithelial cell divide and migrate over the granulation tissue
34
Tissue Repair Figure 4.12c About one week later, the fibrosed area (scar) has contracted and regeneration of the epithelium is in progress
35
Tissue Repair Figure 4.12c Results in a fully regenerated epithelium with underlying scar tissue
36
Regenerative Capacity Epithelial tissues, bone, areolar connective tissue, dense irregular connective tissue and blood- forming tissue regenerate extremely well
37
Regenerative Capacity Smooth muscle and dense regular connective tissue have a moderate capacity for regeneration
38
Regenerative Capacity Skeletal muscle and cartilage have a weak regenerative capacity
39
Regenerative Capacity Cardiac muscle and nervous tissue in the brain and spinal cord have NO functional regenerative capacity –They are replaced by scar tissue
40
Regenerative Capacity Scar tissue is strong, but lacks flexibility and elasticity of most normal tissues, nor can it perform the normal functions of the tissues it replaced
41
Developmental Aspects
42
Primary germ layers: ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm Figure 4.13
43
Developmental Aspects These three layers of cells are formed early in embryonic development then specialize to form the four primary tissues Figure 4.13
44
Developmental Aspects Nerve tissue arises from ectoderm (blue) Figure 4.13
45
Developmental Aspects Muscle and connective tissue arise from mesoderm (red) Figure 4.13
46
Developmental Aspects Most mucous membranes arise from endoderm (yellow) Figure 4.13
47
Developmental Aspects Epithelial tissues arise from all three germ layers Figure 4.13
48
Developmental Aspects By end of second month of development, all primary tissues have appeared Tissue cells remain mitotic and produce rapid growth until birth, except the division of nerve cells nearly stop during fetal period
49
Developmental Aspects After birth, most tissues divide until adult body size is achieved In adults only epithelia and blood- forming tissues are highly mitotic
50
Developmental Aspects With old age, the amount of collagen declines, making tissue repair less efficient With old age, bone, muscle, and nervous tissues begin to atrophy
