Idea Transcript


Connective Tissue • Adds support and structure to the body • Tendons, bone, cartilage, fat and blood • What are some of the characteristics of the cells that make up connective tissue?

Muscle Tissue • Contractile tissue • Striated or smooth • Voluntary or involuntary • Biceps, heart, hamstring

Smooth Muscle: • Involved in involuntary contraction. • Found in intestinal walls and in the arteries and veins • You do not have to think about these movements… What would happen if you had to think about digestion and circulation?

Skeletal Muscle: •Muscles that are attached to the bone and aid in movement •These muscles move voluntarily •Biceps, quadriceps, pectorals and abdomen

Epithelial Tissue • Sheet like • Acts as a lining and membrane over organs • Skin, outer stomach

Functions of Epithelial Tissue: • Protection - against injury, bacteria and from losing water • Contains nerve endings so you can feel objects on your skin • Contains glands that can secrete substances such as enzymes and sweat • Epithelial cells in the small intestine can help absorb food

Nerve Tissue • Conducts electrical signals throughout the body • In brain, spinal cord and throughout the rest of the body

Fun Facts: • Giraffes have a nerve that is 15 feet long extending from their head to their toes • Nerves can move at speeds up to 390 feet per second • There is a rare disorder called congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis, or CIPA — a rare genetic disorder that makes a person unable to feel pain… Why might it be dangerous to not feel pain?
