Tissues

Major Tissues

• What tissue’s job is to coordinate, regulate, integrate, transmit information, and sensory reception?

• It can be found in the brain and spinal cord…

• NERVOUS TISSUE

Major Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to protect, secrete, absorb, and excrete?

• It does not have many blood vessels.• Its cells are tightly packed, and can

reproduce very quickly.• It covers the body surface, lines internal

organs, and makes-up glands…

• EPITHELIAL TISSUE

Major Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to cause movement?

• It can be found in the walls of hollow organs and attached to bones…

• MUSCLE TISSUE

Major Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to bind, support, protect, fill in empty space, store energy as fat, and make blood cells?

• It can be found all over the body. An example is a tendon…

• CONNECTIVE TISSUE

Minor Tissues

• What type of tissue is made up of many layers of flat, pancake-like cells?

• It can be found on your palms and inside your mouth.

• Its job is to protect you…

• STRATIFIED SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM

Minor Tissue

• What type of tissue is made up of many layers of cube-like and elongated cells...maybe- shape changes depending upon how distended the organ is?

• Its job is to allow distention and protection.• It can be found in the bladder, ureters, and

urethra…

• TRANSITIONAL EPITHELIUM

Minor Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to bind the skin to the body?

• It can be found beneath skin and between muscles.

• It has many blood vessels and is loosely packed…

• LOOSE CONNECTIVE TISSUE

Minor Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to move things through hollow organs?

• It has no striations…

• SMOOTH MUSCLE

Minor Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to use its cilia to sweep away mucus or egg cells?

• Its nuclei are at different levels, although all cells reach the basement membrane, so it looks like there is more than one layer…

• PSEUDOSTRATIFIED COLUMNAR EPITHELIUM

Minor Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to allow flexibility?

• It has many yellow elastic fibers.

• It can be found between vertebrae, in large arteries and large airways…

• ELASTIC CONNECTIVE TISSUE

Minor Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to withstand tension from many directions, be very strong?

• It binds body parts together.

• It can be found in tendons or ligaments…

• DENSE CONNECTIVE TISSUE

Minor Tissue

• What tissue’s job is secretion and absorption?

• It can be found in the kidneys, ovaries, and some glands.

• Its square cells are arranged in a single layer…

• SIMPLE CUBOIDAL EPITHELIUM

Minor Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to provide support and protection?

• Its cells produce a solid, very strong matrix that contains mineral salts.

• Its cells are arranged around a central canal…

• BONE

Minor Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to provide protection, secretion, and absorption?

• It can be found in the stomach, intestines, and uterus.

• Its single layer of cells are elongated; longer than they are wide…

• SIMPLE COLUMNAR EPITHELIUM

Minor Tissue

• What type of tissue’s job is to allow diffusion and osmosis?

• Because it is a single layer of flattened cells it can be easily damaged.

• It can be found in air sacs, blood vessels, and lymph vessels…

• SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM

Minor Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to contract on command from the conscious brain?

• It can be found attached to bones…

• SKELETAL MUSCLE

Minor Tissue

• What tissue’s job it to continuously contract without tiring?

• It can be found in only one location- the heart…

• CARDIAC MUSCLE

Minor Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to store energy in the form of lipids and insulate the body?...

• ADIPOSE TISSUE

Minor Tissue

• What tissue’s job is to provide support, act as a framework, and is the structural model for many developing bones.

• It comes in 3 different types.

• It can be found on the ends of bones, in your nose, and in your outer ear…
