Muscle Tissue Characteristics • Muscle tissues are contractile, meaning they can shorten and thicken • As they contract, they move body parts • 3 types: • Skeletal • Smooth • Cardiac
Skeletal Muscle Tissue • Usually attaches to bones • Controlled by conscious effort (Voluntary) • Can be long and narrow • Have alternating light and dark cross markings called striations • Each cell has many nuclei • Move the head, trunk, limbs, and enable us to make facial expressions, write, talk, chew, swallow and breathe
Smooth Muscle Tissue • Lacks striations • Cells are shorter, spindle shaped, and have one nucleus • Involuntary- cannot usually control by conscious effort • In walls of hollow internal organs. (Stomach, intestines, urinary bladder, blood vessels, uterus) • EX: move food through the digestive tract
Cardiac Muscle Tissue • Is only in the heart • Striated • Branched and form complex networks with single nucleus • Involuntary- Can function without nerve impulses • Makes up the bulk of the heart, and pumps blood through the heart chambers and into blood vessels
Nervous Tissue • found in the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves • Specialized • Neurons • Sense changes in the environment and respond by transmitting nerve impulses • Coordinate, regulate, and integrate many body functions • Neuroglia • support and bind the components of nervous tissue
