Tissues in the Body

The body comprises various types of tissues, each with distinct roles and structures. Connective tissues, such as fibrous, loose, elastic, and dense, provide structural support and bind body parts.

Tissues in the Body

Tissues in the Body

Epithealial

Stratified
Cuboidal

Secrete substances. Mammary glands, sweat glands, salivary glands, and pancreas.

Squamous

Outer layer of the skin, line things that need to remain moist. Lines the mouth, throat, vagina and anal canal.

Columnar

Move fluid and protect. Male reproductive areas, male urethra, parts of the pharynx.

Simple
Cuboidal- Secretion, absorption
Squamous- Exchange gasses because its thin.
Columnar- secretes digestive fluids, absorbs nutrients.

Muscle

Cardiac
Webbed to allow the heart to beat rhythmically. Striped(striations.) Intercalated disks, gap junctions for electric flow. Heart.
Smooth
Involuntary, contract when needed. Lack of stripes. Stomach, intestines, bladder.
Skeletal
Contracts the bones of your body around. Vertical stripes(striations). Lots of nuclei to think more because its longer. Bones.

Nervous

Nervous- Send/ receive electricalimpulses. Neuroglia cells support and nourish neurons.

Connective

this sucks

jk its beautiful

Specialized Cartilage Bone Fat Blood
Blood- its function is to transport substances throughout the body. (liquid matrix is plasma)
Fat-stores fats, padding to organs. insolation.
Bone- Supports body, muscle attachments. Blood cell formation. (osteocytes
Cartilage- doesn’t have blood vessels. Supportive framework. (Chondrocyte) heals slowly.
Fibrous- loose Dense Elastic Reticular
Reticular- Form supportive networks. Structural support.
Elastic- Surrounds internal organs, expand & contract.
Dense- consists of densely packed collagen fibers very strong but lacks good supply. Support.
Loose- bind delicate body parts, holds body parts in place.
