TISSUE STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION: General Review

1. Define TISSUE
A SET OF CELLS THAT FUNCTIONS AS ONE UNIT WHILE POSSESING A COMMON STRUCTURE

2. Use the key choices to identify the major tissue types described below. (Some choices may be used
more than once)

Key:
Connective Epithelium Muscular Nervous

EPITHELIUM 1. Lines body cavities and covers the body’s external surface
MUSCULAR 2. Pumps blood, flushes urine out of the body, allows one to swing a bat
NERVOUS 3. Transmit waves of excitation
CONNECTIVE 4. Anchors and packages body organs
EEPITHELIUM 5. Cells may absorb, protect, or form a filtering membrane
NERVOUS 6. Most involved in regulating body functions quickly
MUSCULAR 7. Major function is to contract
CONNECTIVE 8. The most durable tissue type
CONNECTIVE 9. Abundant nonliving extracellular matrix
NERVOUS 10. Forms nerves

EPITHELIAL TISSUE
3. On what bases are epithelial tissues classified?
THE CELL SHAPE AND THE NUMBER OF CELL LAYERS

4. How is the function of an epithelium reflected in its arrangement?

BY FITTING CLOSELY TOGETHER TO FORM INTACT SHEET

5. Where is ciliated epithelium found?

IN TRANCHEA,BRONCHI OF THE LUNGS, PARTS OF NASAL CAVITIES,THE UTERUS AND OVIDUCT OF FEMALE, AND
THE VAS DEFERENS AND EPIDIDYMIS OF THE MALE

6. Transitional epithelium is actually stratified squamous epithelium, but there is something special
about it. How does it differ structurally from other stratified squamous epithelia?
THE CELLS CHANGE SHAPE TO ALLOW STRETCHING, WHICH ARE ONLY IN THE BLADDER

7. How does this structural differences reflect its function in the body?
IT ALLOWS FOR SMOOTH MOVEMENT BETWEEN CELLS ALLOWING FOR STRETCHIING TO TAKE PLACE.
 9. Use the key choices to respond to the following. (Some choices may be used more than once.)

Key:
Pseudostratified ciliated columnar Simple columnar Simple cuboidal
Simple squamous Stratified squamous transitional

STRATIFIED SQUAMOUS 1. Best suited for areas subject to friction

PSEUDOSTRATIFIED 2. Propels substances across its surface
CILIATED
SIMPLE SQUAMOUS 3. Most suited for rapid diffusion
SIMPLE CUBOIDAL 4. Tubules of the kidney
PSEUDOSTRATIFIED 5. Lines much of the respiratory tract
CILIATED
SIMPLE COLUMNAR 6. Stretches
SIMPLE COLUMNAR 7. Lines the small and large intestines
SIMPLE COLUMNAR 8. Lining of the esophagus
STRATIFIED SQUAMOUS 9. Lining of the bladder
STRATIFIED SQUAMOUS 10. Alveolar sacs (air sacs) of the lungs

CONNECTIVE TISSUE
10. What are the components of the matrix in connective tissues?
AMORPHOUS GROUND SUBSTRANCE,ESTRACELLULAR FLUID, AND COLLAGEN AND ELASTIC FIBERS

11. How are the functions of connective tissue reflected in its structure?
THROUGH THE PRESENCE OF MATRIX THAT PROVIDES SUPPORT,PROTECTION, AND STORAGE, AS WELL AS THE
INCLUSION OF BLOOD VESSELS AND IMMUNE CELLS FOR TRANSPORT AND THE PRESENCE OF CELLS THAT CAN
REPAIR AND REGENERATE DAMAGED TISSUES.
12. Using the key, choose the best response to identify the connective tissues described below.
Key:
ADIPOSE CONNECTIVE TISSUE
AREOLAR CONNECTIVE TISSUE
DENSE FIBROUS CONNECTIVE TISSUE
RETICULAR CONNECTIVE TISSUE
HYALINE CARTILAGE
OSSEOUS TISSUE
FIBROCARTILAGE
BLOOD

DENSE FIBROUS 1. Attaches bones to bones and muscles to bone

OSSEOUS TISSUE 2. Forms your hip bone
3. Compose basement membranes; a soft packaging tissue with a jellylike
AREOLAR CONNECTIVE TIS. matrix
HYALINE CARTILAGE 4. Forms the larynx and the coastal cartilages of the ribs
OSSEOUS TISSUE 5. Firm matrix heavily invaded with fibers; appears glassy and smooth.
RETICULAR CONNECTIVE 6. Matrix hard; provides levers for muscles to act on
TIS.
ADIPOSE CONNECTIVE TIS. 7. Insulates against heat loss; provides reserve fuel
FIBROCATILAGE 8. Makes up the intervertebral discs

MUSCLE TISSUE
13. The terms and phrases in the key relate to the muscle tissues. For each of the three muscle tissues,
select the terms or phrases that characterize it, and write the corresponding letter of each term on he
answer line.
Key:
a. striated c. spindle shaped cells
b. branching cells d. Cylindrical cells
 e. active during birth
f. voluntary
g. involuntary
h. one nucleus
i. many nuclei
j. forms heart walls
k. attached to bones
l. intercalated discs
m. in wall of bladder and stomach
n. moves limbs, produces smiles
o. arranged in sheets

SKELETAL MUSCLE A,D,F,H,I

CARDIAC MUSCLE A,B,F,G,J,L
SMOOTH MUSCLE C,F,G,K

NERVOUS TISSUE
14. In what ways are neurons similar to other cells?
THEY CONTAIN A NUCLEUS THAT HOLDS GENETIC INFORMATION

How are they different

THEY CONTAIN DENDRITES, WHICH CAN RECEIVE SIGNALS FROM OTHER NEURONS, AND AXONS THAT CAN SEND THIS
SIGALS TO OTHER CELLS

How does the special structure of a neuron relate to its function?

SPECIALIZED PROJECTIONS CALLED AXONS ALLOWS NEURONS TO TRANSMIT ELECTRICAL AND CHEMICAL SIGNAL TO
OTHER CELLS.

135 Draw the different types of tissue and write the name of each tissue and label it. Indicate the
following a. definition b. location c. function in a bond paper then take a picture: Paste the picture of
your drawing inside the box.
