Connective Tissue As the name implies‚ connective tissue serves a "connecting" function. It supports and binds other tissues. Unlike epithelial tissue‚ connective tissue typically has cells scattered throughout an extracellular matrix. Loose Connective Tissue In vertebrates‚ the most common type of connective tissue is loose connective tissue. It holds organs in place and attaches epithelial tissue to other underlying tissues. Loose connective tissue is named based on the "weave" and type

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

Comparative Analysis of How Prospects and Perspectives of Tissue Engineering Have Evolved Over the Years The concept of engineering living beings is not new to us. Tales of mythical creatures and beasts have long been interwoven with our history and form an essential part of many cultures all over the world. However as a science‚ tissue engineering is thought to be quite young. It evolved as a concept and term in the late 1980s. And although some research was undertaken in that field‚ it was only

a) Using a human cell of your choice‚ describe how organelles work together to make and secrete a protein (LO1. AC 1.1) An epithelial cell in the thyroid gland‚ called a thyrocyte forms spherical follicles that produce a protein called thyroglobulin. This is a globular protein that has a functional role in metabolism. The protein is used by the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormones; thyroxine (T4) is an example of one of the hormones created. Thyroxine is formed by iodine binding to tyrosine

Tissue engineering By Nathan. F Introduction Tissue Engineering is the use of a combination of cells‚ engineering and materials methods‚ and suitable biochemical and physio-chemical factors to improve or replace biochemical functions. The objective of tissue engineering is to create living body parts that will fully integrate with the recipient’s body. Tissue engineering mostly associated with applications that repair or replace portions of or whole tissues. For example bone‚ cartilage

December 18th‚ 2013 Block 8 Body Tissues Essay There are four major categories of tissues in the human body. Each of them separate into even smaller groups with specific structures and functions. The four major types are epithelial tissue‚ connective tissue‚ muscle tissue and cardiac tissue. They are all necessities of the human body and contribute to many functions our bodies and cells carry out in order to survive. Tissues interact and group together to make up organs which then compose systems
