1. SWBAT describe the structure and function of connective tissues Do Now: Review your note templates and be ready to name anatomical terminology, the purpose of the organ systems and their major organs, and identify epithelial tissue.

2. Clear your desk of everything but a writing utensil. 2 1 3 2

8. Pass your quiz to another member of your table group. Sign your name at the bottom of the quiz.

9. Notes/ Explain

10. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEi68CeE5eY&feat ure=youtube_gdata_player http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEi68CeE5eY&feat ure=youtube_gdata_player Write a response: What do you think of the technology highlighted in this clip? What must be true of cartilage on the cellular level if we can test results using lab mice?

11. Bind (hold things together), support, protects, fill spaces, store fat, produce blood cells

12. Widely distributed throughout the body

13. Facts: good blood supply, farther apart than epithelial and connected with a matrix (collection of fibers and fluids)

14. Adipose tissue- Cells store fats within themselves (cushion, insulate, energy storage) Loose connective tissue- lie under the skin, connect it to organs, provides blood to skin Dense connective tissue- very strong, used to bind parts together

15. Cartilage- protects, provide framework, absorb shock (in joints of bones) Bone- very rigid, heals quicker than cartilage Blood- helps transport and maintain internal environment

16. Ligament: Connects bone to bone Tendon: Connects muscles to bone

17. Use your notes and the book to outline important information about connective tissue. NOTE we DID NOT go into the cellular level organization of connective tissue. Use your book to supplement this information

18. Homework: Finish your independent practice worksheet Color the connective tissue page in your handout Read the book for supplemental information Create flashcards/foldables/ diagrams Next class: Muscle and Nervous Tissue
