Tissue Structure Edited by: Jessica Hawley Compiled by Mark Anderson
Classify different tissues by their shape and number • Know the four different types of tissues • Compare and contrast different functions of tissues Objectives
How many layers of cells? • Single – Simple • Multiple – Stratified • What is the shape of the cells? • Thin and Flat – Squamous • Square – Cuboidal • Columns – Columnar Classification
Epithelium • Connective Tissue • Nervous Tissue • Muscle Tissue Tissues
Thin layer of tissue that covers all free surfaces of the body • Includes skin and gastrointestinal tract • Simple Epithelium • Located in highly protected areas where maximum absorption is needed • Digestive System • Stratified Epithelium • Located in ares where there is friction with the environment • Skin Epithelium
Provides the structural framework of an animal • All Connective Tissue Includes • Wandering cells • Fixed cells • Ground substance Connective Tissue
Ameboid cells that can freely move within CT • Macrophages • White blood cells • Consume foreign material • Mast cells • Release histamines incase of inflamation • Abundant at the injury site Wandering Cells
Cells that are somewhat anchored within the CT • Fibroblast – determines density of the CT • Primary function is to produce fibrous proteins to reinforce the amorphous structure Fixed Cells
A viscous solution consisting primarliy of proteins linked to carbohydrates • Important in lubricating joints in the form of synovial fluid • Density determined by number of fibrous proteins Ground Substance
Loose – flexible • Dense • Specialized – blood and lymph • Supportive – bones and cartilage Types of connective tissue
Highly porous and flexible • Provides structure for blood vessels and nerves • Highly vascularized • Not very strong Loose CT
Maximum strength with little flexibility • Tendons that are connected to muscle • Two types • Regular – resists force from one directions • Irregular – resists force from multiple directions Dense ct
Adipose tissue • Storage of triglycerides • Highly vascularized • Blood and Lymph • Blood delivers nutrients to tissues • Lymph filters and returns the plasma to the circulatory system • Very little structure Specialized
Cartilage • Hyaline • trachea • Elastic • ear • Fibrocartilage • Between vertebrae • Bone • Spongy • Inside the bone • Compact • Outside the bone Supportive
Hyaline • Densely packed with collagen fibers and provides rigid but flexible features • Elastic • More elastin fibers with some collagen provides maximum flexibility • Fibrocartilage • Extreme form of hyaline cartilage. Very little ground substance Cartilage
Compact • Very dense and found on the outside of the bones • Spongy • Contains spicules and trabeculae that adds strength Bone
Long bones • Arm and leg bones • Irregular bones • Pelvic bones and vertebrate • Flat bones • Bones of the skull Types of Bones
Made of neuron and glial cells and functions to transmit electrical impulses throughout the body • Neuron – nerve cell • Glial cell – support cell that help insulate and support the nerve cell Nervous Tissue
Major features of nerve cells • Axon • Cell Body • Dendrites • Synaptic junctions • Myelin Sheath • Made of Schwann cells Neurons
Functions in locomotion, digestion, breathing, vision, circulation, and other biological processes • Also used as a high protein food source • Makes up 30-40% of total body mass Muscle Tissue
Skeletal – Striated and voluntary • Cardiac – Striated and involuntary • Smooth – Not striated and involuntary Muscle Tissue
Striated and voluntary • Primary muscle type for meat • Multinucleated with nuclei located toward the edge of the cell • Multinucleated cannot reproduce, they can only get larger • Helps with muscle growth Skeletal
Myofiber – muscle fiber/ cell • Myofibril – Contractile apparatus • Sarcolemma – membrane surrounding the myofiber Definitions
A band – darker in color; runs the length of the myosin fiber • I band – lighter in color; only thin filament present • H zone – only thick filament present • Z line – End of the sarcomere where the thin filament is anchored • M line – middle of the sarcomere where thick filament is anchored Sarcomeric structures
Striated and involuntary • Single centrally located nucleus • Varying lengths of the thin filament Cardiac
Not striated, involuntary • Mononucleated, with nucleus in middle of the cell • Tight membrane to membrane junctions for communication between cells Smooth
Classify different tissues by their shape and number • Know the four different types of tissues • Compare and contrast different functions of tissues Objectives
