Chapter 6 Ossecous Tissue and Skeletal Structure The Skeletal system consists of bones and their associated connective tissues‚ including cartilage‚ tendon and ligaments. I. Function of the Skeletal System 1) Bone- The most rigid component of skeletal system a) Support- serves as a framework; Maintains body’s shape b) Protection- of critical internal organs‚ brain‚ heart and lungs c) Lever System- for muscles to produce body movements d) Mineral storage- e.g. Calcium and

Compare and Contrast Sommia Khan Dr. Doumen Exocrine versus Endocrine glands: The similarities between exocrine and endocrine glands are that they are both glandular tissues. Glandular tissues are generally composed of cuboidal cell or columnar cell. Exocrine glands release substances like sweat and saliva through ducts on to the surface of the body. Exocrine glands include merocrine sweat glands‚ apocrine sweat glands and holocrine glands. Merocrine sweat glands‚ also known as eccrine sweat glands

Title: Introduction to cell‚ tissues and organ Objectives: 1. To study the different type‚ function‚ structure and histology of cell‚ tissue‚ and organs in human body. 2. To learn how to identify different cell and tissue based on their structure and shape. 3. To learn how to use the microscope properly to observe the slide of different cell and tissue. Introduction: Cell is the basic structural and functional units of an organism that are composed of chemicals. Cell is the smallest living unit

We have three types of muscles in our bodies‚ skeletal‚ smooth and cardiac. Each type of muscle performs different functions in our bodies. Some of the characteristics of our muscles are that they respond to stimuli‚ they are able to shorten in length‚ they stretch when they are pulled and they tend to return to their original shape after contracting or extending them. Muscle contractions occur when our nervous system sends a signal via the neuromuscular junctions the signal arrives at the end bulb

the four tissue types found in the human body. Describe an example of each type with their function and location. The four main tissues in the human body are connective‚ epithelium‚ muscle and nervous tissue. Connective tissue is an abundant nonliving extracellular matrix‚ located throughout the human body; such as the head‚ tendons‚ bone‚ and many more. It is the most widespread tissue in the human body and is the most durable tissue type. There are so many functions for this tissue‚ that it

The nervous system consists of the brain‚ spinal cord‚ and a complex network of neurons. This system is responsible for sending‚ receiving‚ and interpreting information from all parts of the body. The nervous system monitors and coordinates internal organ function and responds to changes in the external environment. This system can be divided into two parts: the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. Let ’s take a look at the central nervous system. Central Nervous System The

The Nervous System is the system of cells‚ tissues‚ and organs that regulates the body’s responses to internal and external stimuli. In vertebrates it consists of the brain‚ spinal cord‚ nerves‚ ganglia‚ and parts of the receptor and effector organs. Your nervous system is composed of the central nervous system‚ the cranial nerves‚ and the peripheral nerves. The brain and spinal cord together form the central nervous system. The cranial nerves connect the brain to the head. The four groups of nerves
