Types of Tissues Stacy Sisler HS 120‚ Section 03 Unit 2 Seminar Kaplan University Jan. 17‚ 2011 Types of Tissue A tissue is a group of cells that have a similar shape and function. Different type of tissues can be found in different organs. In humans‚ there re four basic types of tissue: epithelial tissue‚ connective tissue‚ muscular tissue‚ and nervous tissue. There may be various sub-tissues within each of the primary tissues. Epithelial tissue covers the body

Fundamental Tissue (Ground Tissue) C. Vascular Tissue MERISTEMATIC TISSUE Composed of immature cells and are regions of active cell division. small‚ thin walls and rich in cytoplasm. Found in the growing tips of the roots and stem. A. Apical Meristems * Responsible for increase in length of

Tissue Types Amy Chanda Morrison Colorado Christian University Our bodies have four different types of tissues. They are epithelial‚ connective‚ muscle and nervous. Each one has a specific job to do to keep the body in homeostasis. Patton stated “homeostasis is the relatively constant state maintained by the body” (pg.19). He also stated that “the precise and constant chemical composition of the internal environment must be maintained within very narrow limits‚ or sickness and death will result”

2010 ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY I Chapter 4: TISSUES AND MEMBRANES Outline of Notes I. Introduction. A. General: Cells are highly specialized and interdependent on one another. Groups of similar cells performing similar functions are called Tissues The study of tissues is called Histology. Organs are made of tissues. A detailed understanding of tissues will greatly help your understanding of organs and organ systems later in this course. Tissues are classified into 4 main types:

There are thousands of burn victims awaiting donations of human tissue to help meet critical needs in reconstructive surgery. My current case #49 regards the selling of human tissue donations. It’s a complicated situation where a few medical centers have acquired a partnership with a biotechnological company called Ardias Corporation. Ardias wants to create a tissue bank to help facilitate researchers with disease-specific tissue that will provide a link to accurate genetic sequence with diseases

Cells of the body are organized into four fundamental tissues; epithelial‚ connective‚ muscle and nerve. Epithelial tissues line all surfaces of the body: the skin‚ cavities‚ ducts‚ vessels. They are named according to the cell shape on the free surface. Cells of a tissue are held together by the basement membrane and intercellular fibbers. These tissues receive their nutrition by diffusion‚ for they are without blood vessels. Simple squamous epithelium lines all blood and lymphatic vessel‚ including

The lungs are made up of many types of tissue; the cartilages‚ ciliated epithelium‚ smooth muscle‚ squamous epithelium‚ elastic fibres and goblet cells and glandular tissue. The cartilage is a very stiff and flexible tissue‚ which doesn’t contain air vessels. It is found in trachea‚ bronchus‚ bronchiole and alveolus‚ and it has a structural role. It support‚ and gives strength to trachea and bronchi. It holds the airways open for the resistance with little airway. This prevents it from collapse

Question describe the different types of epithetical tissue including structure function‚ and location. Answer: there are many types of epithetical tissue with many different functions in different parts of the body that do many different things working together to do there job to maintain these conclusions‚ first off theres the simple squamous: known as a single layer commonly very flat known for filitration and & absorption found in the lungs and blood vessels‚ known as the circulatory system
