Study Notes
- Stem cells are undifferentiated cells able to specialize into various cell types.
Animal Tissues
- Epithelial tissue covers body surfaces and lines organs, such as skin and the digestive tract lining.
- Connective tissue supports, binds, and protects organs, examples being blood, bone, cartilage, and fat.
Blood Components
- Red blood cells carry oxygen.
- White blood cells fight infection.
- Platelets facilitate clotting.
- Muscle tissue enables movement.
- Skeletal muscle is voluntary.
- Cardiac muscle is found in the heart.
- Smooth muscle is present in organs.
- Nervous tissue sends and processes electrical signals.
- This tissue comprised of neurons and supporting cells.
Plant Tissues
- Epidermal tissue is the outer protective layer of plants with stomata (pores) for gas exchange.
- Ground tissue performs photosynthesis and stores nutrients.
- Photosynthesis reactants are carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight.
- Photosynthesis products are glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) and oxygen.
- Vascular tissue transports substances.
- Xylem carries water and minerals from roots to leaves.
- Phloem carries sugars from leaves to the rest of the plant.
- Meristematic tissue is responsible for plant growth via actively dividing cells.
