Chapter 33 Animal Tissues & Organ Systems
Tissues • Remember our levels of organization/complexity! • AtomMoleculeCellTissueOrganOrgan System • Cytology—Study of cells • Histology—Study of tissues
Tissues • Tissue • A group of similar cells united to perform a specific function. • Groups of cells having a similar structure and function
Germ Layers • Ectoderm—epidermis, nervous system • Endoderm—linings of digestive & respiratory tracts, & associated organs • Mesoderm—Skeletal, muscular, circulatory systems
Tissue Types • Epithelial • Connective • Muscle • Nervous
Epithelial Tissues • Line body cavities • Line body tubes • Form body coverings • Form many glands
Epithelial Tissues • Characteristics • Closely packed • Tightly connected • Polarity • Apical surface • Basal Surface • Avascular • Innervated • High regeneration
Epithelial Tissues • Classification • Layers • Simple • Stratified • Pseudostratified • Shape • Squamous • Cuboidal • Columnar • Transitional
Epithelial Tissues • Simple Squamous • Diffusion & filtration • Kidneys, air sacs, capillaries • Simple Cuboidal • Secrete & absorb • Kidneys, glands, ovaries
Epithelial Tissues • Simple Columnar • Absorption, secrete mucus & enzymes • Cilia on some for propulsion • Digestive tract (non-ciliated), bronchi & uterus (ciliated) • Pseudostratified Columnar • Secretion, ciliated propulsion • Respiratory tract, male reproductive
Epithelial Tissues • Stratified Squamous • Protection from abrasion • Mouth, vagina, skin
Connective Tissues • Most abundant • Most diverse • Extracellular matrix—nonliving substance separating living cells
Connective Tissues • Loose connective tissue (fibroblasts) • Dense connective tissue (fibroblasts) • Cartilage (chondrocytes) • Bone (osteocytes) • Blood (hematopoetic stem cells)
Connective Tissues • Loose • Areolar • Connect skin to tissues • Superficial coverings of some organs • Adipose • Energy storage • Cushioning • Insulation
Connective Tissues • Dense • Irregular—loosely packed • Dermis • Around blood vessels • Part of intestines • Regular—densely packed • Tendons • Ligaments
Connective Tissues • Cartilage • Hyaline • Ends of bone • Ribs to sternum • Elastic • External ear • Epiglottis
Connective Tissues • Bone • 30% collagen fibers • 70% mineral salts • Support & protection
Connective Tissues • Blood • 55% plasma • Water, proteins, other • 45% cells • Erythrocytes—red blood cells • Oxygen transport • Leukocytes—white blood cells • Fight infection • Clean up debris • Thrombocytes—platelets • clotting
Muscle Tissues • Movement • Highly vascularized • Actin & myosin microfilaments
Muscle Tissues • Skeletal muscle • Multi-nucleated • Long, parallel fibers • Striations • Voluntary contractions
Muscle Tissues • Cardiac muscle • Only in the heart • Branched fibers • Striations • Intercalated discs • Involuntary
Muscle Tissues • Smooth muscle • Spindle-shaped fibers • No striations • Involuntary • Blood vessels • Walls of hollow organs • Gastrointestinal tract
Nervous Tissues • Central nervous system • Brain & spinal cord • Peripheral nervous system • Fewest cell types • Detects, interprets, transmits, responds to stimuli • Coordinates, regulates, integrates body activities
Nervous Tissues • Neurons • Dentrites • Axons
Nervous Tissues • Neuroglial cells • Support & nourish
Tissues to Organs • Skin • Epithelial—Stratified squamous, simple cuboidal • Connective—Adipose, areolar, dense irregular, blood • Muscle—Smooth (arrectorpili, blood vessels) • Nervous
