Study Notes
Animal Tissues
- Tissues are groups of similar cells performing specific functions
- Types of tissues: Epithelial, Muscle, Nerve, Connective (cartilage, bone, blood, adipose)
Epithelial Tissue
- Acts as a barrier between the external environment and underlying organs
- Specialized for secretion and absorption
- Protects against microorganisms, injury and fluid loss
- Involved in waste product excretion (e.g., sweat)
- Types: squamous, cuboidal, columnar, stratified squamous
Squamous Epithelium
- Structure: Thin, flat, and often elliptical cells
- Function: Facilitates diffusion across cell layers due to thin structure
- Locations: Capillaries, alveoli (lungs), skin (stratified squamous)
Cuboidal Epithelium
- Structure: Cube-shaped cells
- Function: Important in secretion and absorption; occurs in kidney tubules and glands
- Locations: Kidney tubules, certain glands
Columnar Epithelium
- Structure: Elongated cells with nuclei located at the base
- Function: Primarily involved in protection by forming a barrier and secretion (mucus)
- Locations: Digestive tract, reproductive organs
Muscle Tissue
- Types: Skeletal, Smooth, Cardiac
- Function: Movement and locomotion
Connective Tissue
- Provides support, connects, and separates tissues and organs
- Composed of cells, fibers (e.g., collagen), and extracellular matrix
- Includes cartilage, bone, blood and adipose tissue
Nervous Tissue
- Structure: Neurons
- Function: Transmission of electrical impulses
- Processes: Neuron structure, signaling and myelin
