20.2 Structure fits function at all levels of organization in the animal body • Anatomy is the study of structure. • Physiology is the study of function. • Animals consist of a hierarchy of levels of organization. • Tissues are an integrated group of similar cells that perform a common function. • Organs perform a specific task and consist of two or more tissues. • Organ systems consist of multiple organs that together perform a vital body function.

20.3 Tissues are groups of cells with a common structure and function • Tissues • are an integrated group of similar cells that perform a common function and • combine to form organs. • Animals have four main categories of tissues: • epithelial tissue, • connective tissue, • muscle tissue, and • nervous tissue.
20.4 Epithelial tissue covers the body and lines its organs and cavities • Epithelial tissues, or epithelia, are sheets of closely packed cells that • cover body surfaces and • line internal organs and cavities. • Epithelial cells come in three shapes: • squamous, like a fried egg, • cuboidal, as tall as they are wide, and • columnar, taller than they are wide.
20.4 Epithelial tissue covers the body and lines its organs and cavities • Epithelial tissues are named according to • the number of cell layers they have and • the shape of the cells on their apical surface.

20.5 Connective tissue binds and supports other tissues • Connective tissue can be grouped into six major types. • Loose connective tissue • is the most widespread, • consists of ropelike collagen and elastic fibers that are strong and resilient, and • helps to join skin to underlying tissues. • Fibrous connective tissue • has densely packed collagen fibers and • forms tendons that attach muscle to bone.
20.5 Connective tissue binds and supports other tissues • Adipose tissue stores fat in large, closely packedcells held in a matrix of fibers. • Cartilage • is a strong and flexible skeletal material and • commonly surrounds the ends of bones.
20.5 Connective tissue binds and supports other tissues Bone has a matrix of collagen fibers embedded in a hard mineral substance containing calcium, magnesium, and phosphate. Blood transports substances throughout the body.

20.6 Muscle tissue functions in movement • Muscle tissue is the most abundant tissue in most animals. • There are three types of vertebrate muscle tissue: • skeletal muscle causes voluntary movements, • cardiac muscle pumps blood, and • smooth muscle moves walls of internal organs, such as the intestines.

20.7 Nervous tissue forms a communication network • Nervous tissue • senses stimuli and • rapidly transmits information. • Neurons carry signals by conducting electrical impulses. • Other cells in nervous tissue • insulate axons, • nourish neurons, and • regulate the fluid around neurons.

20.8 Organs are made up of tissues • Each tissue performs specific functions. • The heart has • extensive muscle that generates contractions, • epithelial tissues that • line the heart chambers, • prevent leaks, and • form a smooth surface for blood flow, • connective tissues that make the heart elastic and strong, and • neurons that regulate contractions.
20.8 Organs are made up of tissues • The small intestine • is lined by a columnar epithelium, • includes connective tissues that contain blood vessels, and • has two layers of smooth muscle that help propel food. • The inner surface of the small intestine has many finger-like projections that increase the surface area for absorption.

20.9 CONNECTION: Bioengineers are learning to produce organs for transplants Bioengineering is seeking ways to repair or replace damaged tissues and organs. New tissues and organs are being grown on a scaffold of connective tissue from donated organs. Other researchers are using desktop printers to create layers of different cells resembling the structure of organs.
20.10 Organ systems work together to perform life’s functions • Each organ system typically • consists of many organs, • has one or more functions, and • works with other organ systems to create a functional organism.

20.10 Organ systems work together to perform life’s functions • The circulatory system • delivers oxygen and nutrients to body cells, • transports carbon dioxide to the lungs, and • carries metabolic wastes to the kidneys. • The respiratory system exchanges gases with the environment, • supplying the blood with oxygen and • disposing of carbon dioxide.

20.10 Organ systems work together to perform life’s functions • The integumentary system protects against • physical injury, • infection, • excessive heat or cold, and • drying out.

20.10 Organ systems work together to perform life’s functions • The urinary system • removes waste products from the blood, • excretes urine, and • regulates the chemical makeup, pH, and water balance of blood. • The digestive system • ingests and digests food, • absorbs nutrients, and • eliminates undigested material.

20.11 The integumentary system protects the body • Skin has many functions. • The epidermis • resists physical damage, • decreases water loss, and • prevents penetration by microbes. • The dermis • collects sensory information, • synthesizes vitamin D, and • helps regulate body temperature.
20.11 The integumentary system protects the body • Exposure of the skin to ultraviolet light • causes skin cells to release melanin, which contributes to a visible tan, and • damages DNA of skin cells, which can lead to • premature aging of the skin, • cataracts, and • skin cancers.
20.11 The integumentary system protects the body • Hair • is an important component of the integumentary system of mammals, • helps to insulate their bodies, and • consists of a shaft of keratin-filled dead cells. • Oil glands release oils that • are associated with hair follicles, • lubricate hair, • condition surrounding skin, and • inhibit the growth of bacteria.
20.12 SCIENTIFIC THINKING: Well-designed studies help answer scientific questions As consumers, we are bombarded with claims daily. To make informed decisions and behave as responsible consumers, we should evaluate information as scientists do. For example, consider claims for acne treatment.
