Summary
These notes summarize different tissue types in biology. They cover epithelial, connective, muscle, and neural tissues, giving details on their functions like protection, support, and movement. The notes also classify many subtypes such as exchange and protective tissues. They are ideal for studying human anatomy.

### 3) Four Types of Tissues - Epithelial: protects inside layer - Connective: structure support & barrier - Muscle: ability to contract to produce force/movement - Neural: carries info from one part of the body to another ### 5 Types of Epithelia "Every Cat Sits To Pur" - Exchange: rapid exchan...
### 3) Four Types of Tissues - Epithelial: protects inside layer - Connective: structure support & barrier - Muscle: ability to contract to produce force/movement - Neural: carries info from one part of the body to another ### 5 Types of Epithelia "Every Cat Sits To Pur" - Exchange: rapid exchange in materials - Ciliated: line airway, female reproductive tract - Secreted: synthesized and release products into external environment/blood - Transporting: select transport materials - Protective: found on surface of the body. *Regulates exchange in materials from external to internal environment* ### 5 Types of Connective Tissue "Lazy Dogs are Big Sleepers" - Loose: elastic tissue - Dense: strength & primary function - Adipose: contains adipocytes (white/brown Fat) - Blood: watery mixture with no insoluble protein fibers - Supporting: dense substances ### 5 Types of Muscle "Some Students Cry" - Skeletal: gross body movement - Smooth: influencing the movement of substances into/out of the body - Cardiac: found in heart, contractions move blood through body ### 2 Types of Cells in Neural Tissue - Neurons: carry info as electrical/chemical signals - Glial Cells: support cells of neurons
