There are four types of tissue found in animals: connective‚ muscle‚ nervous‚ and epithelial. We are going to go into muscle tissue. The cells of muscle tissues are called fibers. There are three types of muscle tissue and they are skeletal‚ cardiac‚ and smooth. All types can go though hypertrophy (enlargement or overgrowth of an organ or part of the body due to the increased size of the constituent cells). Muscle fibers contract due to the interaction of the contractile proteins‚ actin and myosin

PLANT TISSUES (pp 261-268) HOW ARE CELLS ORGANIZED IN PLANTS? I. MERISTEMATIC TISSUES A. APICAL MERISTEMS Primary Growth 1. Initials a. Occur near tips of roots and shoots b. Cells have thin walls‚ prominent nuclei‚ and small vacuoles c. Functions 1) Establish patterns of growth. • Leaf pattern. 2) Produce new‚ genetically healthy cells 3) Produce derivatives which in turn account for primary growth i.e. elongation. 2. Derivatives a.

Section 6 Types of Tissue OBJECTIVES: Upon completing this section‚ you will be able to: 1. Define the word histology. 2. Name and briefly describe the four basic types of tissue. 3. Name the three subtypes of simple epithelial tissue. 4. List the five main subtypes of connective tissue. 5. Name the three subtypes of muscle tissue. 6. Name the two types of nerve tissue. 68 Section 6 Types of Tissue HISTOLOGY Histology is the microscopic study of cells‚ tissues‚ and organs. Also called

Histology This lab focused on the examination and identification of tissues that make up the organs of the body. The tissues are divided into four main categories: epithelial‚ connective‚ muscle‚ and neuronal. Click on the thumbnail images to see a larger version. All of the photomicrographs were taken using the 40X objective (400X magnification)‚ which is the highest magnification we use in this lab. Other resources include linked web pages on the "Resources" page and the histology tutorial

QUILONA‚ KLARISSE JANE A. BSP-1B Animal Tissues 1. Epithelial Epithelial tissue is made of closely-packed cells arranged in flat sheets. Epithelia form the surface of the skin‚ line the various cavities and tubes of the body‚ and cover the internal organs. Subsets of Epithelia Epithelia that form the interface between the internal and external environments. Skin as well as the lining of the mouth and nasal cavity. These are derived from ectoderm.

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

ANIMAL TISSUES 1. Classify the animal tissues. On the basis of the function they perform‚ animal tissues are classified into four different types. They are: i) Epithelial tissue ii) Connective tissue iii) Muscular tissue iv) Nervous tissue 2. What are epithelial tissues? What are the characteristic features of these tissues? The covering or protective tissues in the animal body are called epithelial tissues. They also perform the functions of secretion and absorption
