OVERVIEW of Connective Tissue Connective tissue forms a framework upon which epithelial tissue rests and within which nerve tissue and muscle tissue are embedded. Blood vessels and nerves travel through connective tissue. Connective tissue functions not only as a mechanical support for other tissues but also as an avenue for communication and transport among other tissues. Most significantly‚ connective tissue is the stage for inflammation. The principal cell types involved in immunological

A nonliving material‚ called the intercellular matrix‚ fills the spaces between the cells ii. What can be found in this material? The intercellular matrix may contain special substances such as salts and fibers that are unique to a specific tissue and gives that tissue distinctive characteristics iii. List the four types of tissue. Four main tissue types in the body: epithelial

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

by Ma Cho Cho Lwin & Ma Eaindra Win TISSUES Tissues are group of cells that work together to perform a particular functions. There are four main type of tissues. They are: I. Epithelial tissues II. Connective tissues III. Muscle tissues IV. Nervous tissues EPITHELIAL TISSUES Simple epithelial tissues This tissue has only one cell layer. Compound epithelial tissues This tissue has more than one cell layers. EPITHELIAL TISSUES Epithelial tissues cover the whole surface of the body

of flattened sacs receives and processes protein that has been dispatched by the endoplasmic reticulum. The proteins are modified and released at the cell membrane. P2 There are four main types of tissue: epithelial‚ connective‚ muscle and nervous. [pic] Epithelial tissue is found in skin and in diverse forms has special functions in other areas of the body. The main types are: simple epithelium‚ a single layer of squamous (flat)‚ cuboidal (cube like)‚ or columnar (tall) cells;

It is composed of cells that can contract to generate the physical force needed to move body structures and generate heat that warms the body. B. As the body was being moved‚ skin slid away from the underlying connective tissue. What is the normal function of connective tissue? It protects and supports the body and its organs
