Task2: The main tissue types of the body and the role these play in two named organs of the body.
P2: Outline the structure of the main tissues of the body
There are many different types of cells in the human body. These cells would not be able to function on their own, they are all part of a large organism that is called - you.
The two named organs that I have chosen for this assignment are the intestines and the heart.
Tissues
All cells group together within the body to form tissue, a collection of similar cells group together to perform a specialized function. There are four primary tissue types in the human body - epithelium, connective tissue, nervous and the muscle tissue.
Epithelial tissue-
This tissue is specialised to cover the whole part of the body lining of all of the internal and external body surfaces, they are packed tightly together to form continuous layers that serve as linings in different parts of the body. Epithelial tissue serves as membranes lining organs and helping to keep the body's organs separate, in place and protected. Some examples of epithelial tissue are the outer layer of the skin, the inside of the mouth and stomach, and the tissue surrounding the body's organs.
These kinds of tissues can be divided into two groups depending on the number of layers that it has. An Epithelial tissue which is only one cell thick is known as Simple epithelia, if it consists of several layers then it is known as Compound Epithelia.
