  1. Chapter 5 Tissues

  2. How is it all Connected? • Cells = basic unit of life • Cells come together to form TISSUES • TISSUES come together to form ORGANS • ORGANS come together to form SYSTEMS • SYSTEMS come together to form US.

  3. So what is a TISSUE? • “Layers or groups of SIMILAR cells with a COMMON function.” • Tissues are distinguished from each other because of differences in size, organization, and function • Can you think of anything that would be considered a TISSUE?

  4. BLOOD

  5. MUSCULE TISSUE

  6. SMOOTH TISSUE

  7. SMOOTH TISSUE

  8. BONE

  9. CARTILAGE

  10. NERVOUS TISSUE

  11. 4 TYPES OF TISSUES • Epithelial Tissues: • Covers the body’s surface and organs. • Connective Tissues: • Tendons, ligaments, cartilage, blood, fat, bone • Muscle Tissues: • Skeletal Muscles, heart, smooth muscle • Nervous Tissues: • Brain, spinal cord, nerves

  12. EPITHELIAL TISSUES • So if Epithelial tissues are on the body surface and surround the organs, then what do you think this type of tissue’s function is? • Protection: Example? • Secretion: Example? • Absorption: Example? • Excretion: Example?

  13. EPITHELIAL TISSUES • Where are they located? • Surface of the body • Cover the internal organs • Compose the glands • Distinguishing Characteristics? • No blood vessels. Why do you think? • Cells divide rapidly. Why is this good? • Cells are tightly packed. How does this help us?

  14. EPITHELIAL TISSUES • Epithelial Tissues are classified by the shape of their cells. • There are 3 different epithelial tissue cell types • 1. Squamous: flattened cells • 2. Cuboidal: Cube-like cells • 3. Columnar: Elongated

  15. EPITHELIAL TISSUES • The arrangement of these cells varies. • There are two different ways to arrange Epithelial Tissues • 1.Simple: one layer of cells. • 2. Stratified: two or more layers of cells.

  16. Types of Epithelial Tissues • There are eight different types of Epithelial tissues. • When you refer to one type of Epithelial tissue you call it an Epithelium (this is the singular spelling). • Example: Simple Squamous Epithelium • What can you tell me about the name above based on what you just learned?

  17. Connective Tissues • **Comprise much of the body • **The most abundant type of tissue by weight. • 1. bind structures • 2. provide support and protection • 3. serve as a framework • 4. fill spaces • 5. store fat • 6. produce blood cells • 7. protect against infection • 8. help repair tissue damage.

  18. Major Connective Tissue Cell TYPES • 1. Fixed cells: reside in the tissue for extended period of time • Example: fibroblast = large star shaped p.152 • 2. Wandering Cells: appear in tissues temporarily in response to injury or infection. • Example: Mast cells = release histamine that dialates capillaries = swelling and redness.

  19. Categories of Connective Tissue • 1. Loose Connective Tissue: binds the skin to the muscle tissue below

  20. 2. Adipose Tissue: = fat • These cells accumulate fat, they enlarge and their nuclei is pushed to one side • When they become too abundant they crowd out other cell types and form “adipose tissue” • Found: between muscles, around kidneys, behind eyeballs, surface of the heart, and around joints.

  21. Adipose tissue

  22. 3. Reticular connective tissue: provides the framework for some internal organs (spleen, liver, lymphatic organs. • They have collagen • fibers

  23. 4. Dense Connective Tissue: tendons and ligaments • Very strong and can withstand pulling forces. • Binds body parts together • Has poor blood supply and is very slow to heal. • This is why sprains, damage to tissue around joints, takes considerable time to heal.

  24. Dense Connective Tissue • P.158

  25. 5. Elastic Connective Tissue: found in the attachments between bones of the spinal column. • Very rare in the body but are found in large arteries such as the aorta. • http://www.austincc.edu/histologyhelp/tissues/tn_elas_ct.html

  26. 6. Cartilage: rigid, provides support, framework, attachments, provides a structural model for many developing bones. • Contains a large volume of water • Lacks a direct blood supply, blood vessels surround it, obtain nutrients by diffusion • This is why torn cartilage heals so slowly

  27. 3 types of cartilage • 1. Hyaline: most common, tips of bones at joints, soft part of the nose, supporting rings of the trachea. Prominent in early development. • 2. Elastic: more flexible, ears and larynx • 3. Fibrocartilage: very tough, shock absorber, intervertebral discs, knees and pelvis.

  28. 7. Bone: • Most rigid connective tissue • Internally supports body structures • Very active tissue • Heals much more rapidly than injured cartilage because of close access to a blood supply

  29. 8. Blood • Cells suspended in fluid called PLASMA • 1. Red blood cells: transport gases • 2. White blood cells: fight infection • 3. Platelets: cause blood clotting • Where do blood cells form?
