Tissues 1

Tissues are: Group of cells similar in structure an function Tissues are organized into organs Histology = study of tissues The four tissue types are: Epithelial Connective Muscular Nervous Tissues and tissue types 2

Physical protection Secretion Sensory perception Absorption Filtration Excretion Functions of epithelium 3
4
Includes glands and epithelium Glands are secretory Avascular Polarity Regeneration Cellularity Supported by connective tissue Attached to a basement membrane Epithelial tissue 4

Epithelium that secrete substances Exocrine glands Secrete through ducts onto the surface of the gland Endocrine glands Release hormones into surrounding fluid. Ductless glands. Glandular epithelia 21

Connective Tissues 24
25
Protects Supports Bind tissues together Classification: Embryonic Mesenchyme Loose connective tissue, mucous Adult Connective tissue functions and classification: 25

A Classification of Adult Connective Tissues 26
27
No free surface Vascular Scanty in tendons Except cartilage Supports the body Maintain body form Connective tissues characteristics 27
28
1)Extracellular matrix Ground substance Amorphous Binds cells to fibers Colorless Homogeneous Liquid, semisolid, gel-like, or hard Components of the connective tissue 28
29
Matrix Fibers Collagen (white) Most abundant Brings flexibility and strength to the tissue Thicker one Elastic (yellow) Brings elasticity to the tissues Can stretch and recoil 29
30
Reticular Thinnest one Found in smooth muscle and framework of the organs Brings flexibility to organs that need changes in volume Fibers 30

2) Cells Fibroblast most abundant Synthesis of fibers and ground substance Macrophage Phagocytic capacity Components of the connective tissue 33
34
Adipocytes Closely packed Signet ring cell Nucleus eccentric and flat Mesenchymal cells Mast cells Releases histamin Responsible for allergic reactions Lymphocytes, etc Components of the connective tissue 34
35
The Cells and Fibers of Connective Tissue Proper 35
36
Classified as loose or dense Loose Areolar tissue Adipose tissue Reticular tissue Rich blood supply Connective tissue proper 36
37
Connective tissue proper Dense Dense regular Dense irregular Elastic Poor blood supply 37
