TISSUE TYPES

TISSUE TYPES

1. NERVOUS

   • MUSCLE
     • EPITHELIAL
       • pseudostratified columnar
         • secretion and cilia- added movement
         • lining air passage like trachea, tubes of reproductive
       • simple cuboidal
         • secretion and absorption
         • lining of kidney tubes
       • simple columnar
         • protection, secretion, absorption
         • lining of digestive tract and uterus
       • transitional epithelium
         • stretchable tissue, also for a barrier to block
         • lining of urinary bladder
       • SIMPLE SQUAMOUS
         • diffusion and filtration
         • in the air sacs of epithelium
       • stratified squamous
         • in protection
         • lining air passages like trachea and tubes of reproductive system
     • CONNECTIVE
       • blood
         • transport, protection, regulation
         • circulates in cardiovascular system
       • bone
         • protect and support
         • located in the appendicular skeleton includes bones and lower limbs
       • elastic
         • provides resistance to stretch force
         • found in lungs, trachea and bronchi
       • dense regular
         • pilling forces especially well in one direction
         • tendons and ligaments
       • reticular
         • support the walls of reticular fibers
         • located in internal organs
       • dense irregular
         • provides strength making skin resistant to tearing
         • found in the dermis of the skin
       • cartilage
         • supports framework attachments protects underling tissue
         • found in joints between bones
       • adipose
         • cushion joints and some organs
         • beneath the skin
     • smooth muscle
       • change shape to facilitate bodied
       • located in the walls of hollow visceral organs.
     • skeletal muscle
       • supports the body, provide protection
       • located in the thoracic cavity of the body
     • cardiac muscle
       • form of muscle tissue that has evolved to pump blood through the body
       • located in the heart
   • nerves that generates and conduct nerve impulses
   • found in peripheral nerves through out the body
