Four Types of Animal Tissues

Four Types of Animal Tissues. Epithelial Tissue (Covering). Tightly-joined closely-packed cells One side of epithelium exposed to air or internal fluid, other side attached to a basement membrane , a dense mat of extracellular matrix (connective tissue)

    1. Four Types of Animal Tissues

    3. Types of Epithelial Tissue Cell shape Squamous Cuboidal Columnar Number of cell layers Simple Pseudostratified Columnar RELATE STRUCTURE TO FUNCTION!

    4. Connective tissue(Framework) Main function: binding and support other tissues Large amount of extra-cellular matrix with fewer cells Connective tissue cells secrete the extra-cellular matrix Extracellular matrix consists of network of fibers in liquid, jelly-like or solid matrix

    6. Muscle Tissue(Movement) Composed of long cells called muscle fibers Contraction ? movement

    7. Nervous tissue(Control) Senses stimuli and transmits signals called nerve impulses from one part of an animal to another Consists of a cell body and long extensions called dendrites (towards cell body) and axons (towards another cell or an effector)
