Study Notes
Tissues
- A tissue is a group of similar cells that work together to perform a specific function.
- Tissues are composed of cells and a variety of extracellular materials, including proteins and fluids.
Histology
- Histology is the study of tissues.
Types of Tissues
- There are four primary tissue types in the human body:
- Epithelial tissue
- Connective tissue
- Muscular tissue
- Nervous tissue
- Each tissue type is responsible for different functions and has a unique structure.
