Study Notes
Animal Tissues
-
Cell Specialization: Cells develop different characteristics to perform specific tasks.
-
Skin Epithelial Tissue: Flat cells that form a protective barrier between the body and the environment.
-
Columnar Epithelial Tissue: Cells lining the intestines and stomach, responsible for secretion and absorption.
-
Skeletal Muscle: Attached to bones, enabling movement.
-
Smooth Muscle: Involuntary muscle in internal organs.
-
Cardiac Muscle: Only found in the heart, responsible for pumping blood (involuntary).
-
Nervous Tissue: Transmits electrical signals between the brain and body.
-
Bone Tissue: Hard connective tissue supporting the body.
-
Fat (Adipose) Tissue: Stores energy and provides insulation.
-
Red Blood Cells: Carry oxygen to body cells.
-
White Blood Cells: Fight disease-causing microorganisms.
-
Platelets: Essential for blood clotting.
Plant Tissues
-
Meristematic Tissue: Found at shoot and root tips, responsible for plant growth.
-
Ground Tissue: Located between dermal and vascular tissue, involved in photosynthesis, storage, and support.
-
Epidermal Tissue: Outer protective layer of a plant.
-
Vascular Tissue: Transports water and nutrients throughout the plant. It includes xylem and phloem.
-
Stem Cells: Unspecialized cells capable of differentiating into various cell types.
