2
Stem Cells Cells that have the capacity to give rise to many cell types Some in adult tissues But more cells with greater potential in embryos Some object to the use of cells derived from human embryos
3
Impacts, Issues
5
Homeostasis Stable operating conditions in the internal environment Brought about by coordinated activities of cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems
6
Tissue A group of cells and intercellular substances that interact in one or more tasks Four types Epithelial tissueMuscle tissue Connective tissueNervous tissue
7
Organs Group of tissues organized to perform a task or tasks Heart is an organ that pumps blood through body Heart consists of muscle tissue, nervous tissue, connective tissue, and epithelial tissue
8
Organ Systems Organs interact physically, chemically, or both to perform a common task Circulatory system includes the heart, the arteries, and other vessels that transport blood through the body
9
Epithelial Tissue Lines the body’s surface, cavities, ducts, and tubes One free surface faces a body fluid or the environment simple squamous epithelium basement membrane connective tissue
10
Epithelial Tissue – 3 types Squamous – flat cells Cuboidal – cube-shaped cells Columnar – pillar or column-shaped cells

16
Glands Secretory organs derived from epithelium Exocrine glands have ducts or tubes - Secrete products into cavities Endocrine glands are ductless -Secrete products directly into bloodstream
17
Cell Junctions Tight junctions prevent leaks Gap junctions connect abutting cytoplasms Adhering junctions cement cells together Tight junctions Adhering junction Gap junctions
18
Connective Tissue Most abundant tissue in the body Cells are scattered in an extracellular matrix Matrix is collagen and/or elastin fibers in a polysaccharide ground substance
19
Types of Connective Tissue Loose connective tissue Dense, irregular connective tissue Dense, regular connective tissue CartilageBone Adipose tissue Blood
20
Loose Connective Tissue Contain fibers and fibroblasts Fibroblasts produce and secrete the fibers Loosely arranged in a semifluid substance Acts as the framework for epithelium Allows organs to expand
21
Dense, Irregular Connective Tissue Contains fibroblasts and collagen fibers Occurs in skin and forms tough capsules around organs
22
Dense, Regular Connective Tissue Contains rows of fibroblasts in between parallel bundles of fibers Tendons attach muscle to bone Ligaments attach bone to bone Contains elastic fibers that allow movement at joints
23
loose connective tissuedense, irregular connective tissue dense, regular connective tissue

26
Cartilage Cells are called chondrocytes Cells lie in small chambers called lacunae, separated by a matrix Also called hyaline cartilage

28
Bone Cells are called osteocytes Cells are located in chambers called lacunae arranged in concentric circles Also called compact bone

30
Adipose Another name for fat Insulates the body and provides padding Cells sometimes referred to as “ghost cells”

33
Blood Blood transports nutrients and oxygen to cells and removes carbon dioxide and other wastes Blood cells are separated by plasma Types – red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets

37
Muscle Tissue Composed of cells that contract when stimulated Helps move the body and specific body parts Skeletal, cardiac, smooth
38
Skeletal muscleSmooth muscleCardiac muscle Figure 20.4 Page 347
39
Skeletal Muscle Located in muscles that attach to bones Long, cylindrical cells are striated Cells are bundled closely together in parallel arrays
40
Smooth Muscle Located in walls of many internal organs and some blood vessels Cells are not striped and taper at the ends
41
Cardiac Muscle Present only in the heart Cells are striated and branching Ends of cells are joined by communication junctions
42
Nervous Tissue Detects stimuli, integrates information, and relays commands for response Consists of excitable neurons and supporting neuroglial cells
43

44
Neurons (nerve cells) are specialized cells that conduct nerve impulses. The impulses are then relayed through a long process called the axon. LM. Credit: © BBC Microimaging/Visuals Unlimited 98121
45
Neurons Excitable cells When stimulated, an electrical impulse travels along the plasma membrane Arrival of the impulse at the neuron endings triggers events that stimulate or inhibit adjacent neurons or other cells
46
Neuroglia Neuroglial cells constitute more than half of the nervous tissue Protect and support the neurons, both structurally and metabolically

Primary Tissues In vertebrate embryos, cells become arranged to form three primary tissues: EctodermMesodermEndoderm These give rise to all adult tissues
54
Skin: An Organ System Outermost epidermis is stratified epithelium Underlying dermis is mainly dense connective tissues Hypodermis consists of loose connective tissue and adipose tissue
55
Functions of Human Skin Protects the body from injury, dehydration, UV radiation, and some pathogens Helps control temperature Receives some external stimuli Involved in production of vitamin D
56

57
Sunlight Damages Skin UV light stimulates melanin production in skin; produces a tan Tan is the body’s way of protecting itself against UV Prolonged sun exposure causes elastin fibers to clump, skin to age prematurely, can lead to skin cancer

Sunlight causes skin ulcers in a person with porphyria Figure 20.10 Page 351 Porphyria: A diverse group of diseases in which the production of heme is disrupted. Porphyria is derived from the Greek word "porphyra", which means purple. When heme production is faulty, porphyrins are overproduced and lend a reddish-purple color to urine. All forms of porphyrias are inherited. The key clinical features are skin sensitivity to sunlight and/or by intermittent acute attacks of abdominal and nerve pain.
