Muscle Tissues Muscle Tissue Facts • Well vascularized • Highly cellular tissues • Responsible for most types of body movement • Posses myofilaments which cause movement or contraction in all cell types
Skeletal Muscle Structure – • Elongated cells • Cells are multi-nucleated • Nuclei are located on the periphery • Obvious striations throughout. Nuclei Skeletal Muscle
Skeletal Muscle Location – • Attached to the skeleton • Occasionally attached to the skin Skeletal Muscle
Skeletal Muscle Function – • Voluntary movement • Warm blood as the muscles produce heat. • Locomotion • Facial Expression Skeletal Muscle
Smooth Muscle Structure – • Elliptically shaped cells with a centrally located nucleus • There are no striations present. • Cells are close together to form sheets.
Smooth Muscle Location – • Digestive tract • Walls of the Uterus • Blood vessel walls
Smooth Muscle Function – • Involuntarily controlled • Produces involuntary contractions through the linings of the digestive tract and ureters. This movement is called peristalsis. • Produces involuntary contraction and expansion of the blood vessels (vasodilation / vasoconstriction)
Cardiac Muscle Structure – • Centrally located nucleus • Striated • Has branching of muscle cells with intercalated discs • Involuntary control, control is actually inherent so no external stimuli is required to cause contraction
Cardiac Muscle Location – • In the heart Intercalated Disc
Cardiac Muscle Function – • To contract continuously from inherent impulse. • Involuntary contraction.
Nervous Tissue Nervous Tissue Facts • main component of the nervous system. • Contains 2 major cells types: • Neurons – are highly specialized nerve cells that generate and conduct nerve impulses. • Neuroglia – are supporting cells that are non-conducting that insulate and protect the neurons.
Nervous Tissue Structure – • Neurons are branching cells. • Cell processes may be quite long. • Motor neurons have many dendrites but one axon. • Motor neurons are myelinated. • Cell body is called a cyton. • Supporting connective tissue is called Neuroglia Neuroglial Cells Cyton
Nervous Tissue Location – • Brain • Spinal Cord • Peripheral Nerves
Nervous Tissue Function – • coordinates activities between the brain, spinal cord and body organs. Cell Nucleus Nucleus of Neuroglial Cell
X – Section of Spinal Nerve Epineurium – surrounds several groups of neurons. Perineurium – surrounds a group of neurons. Perineurium Epineurium
X – Section of Spinal Nerve Endoneurium – is the covering around one neuron. Axon – is the central grey spot. Myelin – is the white surrounding the axon. Axon Endoneurium
X – Section of Spinal Cord Central Canal Meninges White Matter Grey Matter
