Study Notes
Human Tissue Varieties
- Epithelial tissue: Covers surfaces, lines cavities, and forms glands.
- Connective tissue: Supports and binds other tissues.
- Muscle tissue: Contracts to produce movement.
- Nervous tissue: Transmits electrical impulses.
Organ Components
- Parenchyma: The functional part of an organ, composed of specialized cells performing the organ's primary function.
- Stroma: The supportive framework of an organ, composed of connective tissue and blood vessels.
Epithelial Tissue Characteristics
- Epithelial tissue lines cavities, covers surfaces, and forms glands.
- Avascular: Lacks its own blood supply.
- Tightly packed cells: Cells are closely joined together with minimal intercellular space.
Stroma Composition
- Connective tissue: Provides structural support and holds cells together.
- Blood vessels: Supply nutrients and oxygen to the parenchyma and remove waste products.
Parenchyma Composition
- Specialized cells: Specifically adapted to perform the organ's primary function.
