What are the 4 types of tissues?
|
1) Epithelial
2) Connective 3) Muscle 4) Nervous |
What are the 3 types of Epithelial Tissue?
|
1) Simple Epithelia
2) Stratified (multi-layered) Epithelia 3) Glandular Epithelia |
What are the 4 types of connective tissue?
|
1) Connective tissue proper
2) Cartilage 3) Osseous (Bone) Tissue 4) Vascular (Blood) Tissue |
What are the 3 types of Muscle Tissue?
|
1) Smooth
2) Skeletal 3) Cardiac |
What are the 2 types of nervous tissue?
|
1) Neurons
2) Neuroglia |
What is the "social structure" of epithelial tissue?
|
All epithelial tissue is closely packed with little to no space in between
|
What is the social structure of Connective Tissue?
|
Connective Tissue cells are spread widely apart; loosely scattered
|
What is the social structure of each type of Muscle Tissue?
|
Smooth muscle is the least specialized
cardiac muscle is more specialized skeletal muscle is the most highly specialized and integrated |
What is the social structure of nervous tissue?
|
Nervous tissue is (like skeletal muscle tissue) highly specialized and integrated
|
How much extracellular matrix is there in epithelial tissue?
|
Very little
|
How much extracellular matrix is there in connective tissue?
|
There is MORE MATRIX than cells (so lots)
|
What is special about the extracellular matrix of connective tissue?
|
It determines the quality of the tissue.
|
How much extracellualr matrix is there in muscle tissue?
|
Very little
|
How much extracellular matrix is there in nervous tissue?
|
Very little
|
What is the vascular supply like for epithelial tissue?
|
Avascular --> NO NERVES, NO BLOOD VESSELS
