Example / starter language is in blue………create and use your own words / thinking.
Purpose / Objective(s):

Classify the major tissues of the Human Body. Illustrate, diagram and categorize all major
characteristics and attributes. Use a criteria to classify; i.e., by organ, by tissue
example etc,. hormone, etc
Rational:

The tissue types of the human body are well studied and characterized.
Numerous studies and media present and illustrate these tissues.
The following rational and format are used to systematically reference / organize the
data.
The key criteria used in the attached table(s) include the following………

Attachment – Table(s) that classify the Endocrine System Example is incomplete

If you do your work in MS Excel, then copy the Excel table and remember to click paste special, then click enhanced metafile and your
picture of the Excel table will magically appear on this page. The actual tables may be very long, more than 1 page. Therefore you may want
to paste successive sections of your table on separate pages. In any case the process is the same as above. Be sure each page has column
headings.

I have formatted this section of the document to be in landscape position so you have maximum room per column. You may still want to reduce
your font size to 9 or even 8 so that it looks good. Professional looking formats are part of your grade. Color coding, borders, font style
are up to you. Thorough but concise information is mandatory. Information in each cell should be as brief and as informative as it can be.
You may organize the columns or the rows in any order that your rational dictates…have fun!

Areolar
This slide shows loose (areolar) connective tissue, which is used extensively
throughout the body for fastening down the skin, membranes, vessels and nerves
as well as binding muscles and other tissues together. The tissue consist of an
extensive network of fibers secreted by cells called fibroblasts. The most
numerous of these fibers are the thicker, lightly-staining collagenous fibers.
Thinner, dark-staining elastic fibers composed of the protein elastin can also be
seen.

Adipose
This slide of a cross section of the mammalian trachea (wind pipe) contains
examples of several different kinds of tissues. In addition to the pseudostratified
columnar epithelium lining the trachea and hyaline cartilage, also seen on this
slide is an extensive area of adipose tissue, which is specialized for fat storage.
On prepared slides, the fat has been removed from the cells giving the tissue the
appearance of fish net. (100 X MAGNIFICATION)

Table 1. Connective Tissues -
Supportive
Cartilge
Hyaline
Hyaline cartilage is distinguished by its homogenous matrix surrounding the small
nests of chrondrocytes. Notice the perichondrium which surrounds hyaline
cartilage.
Bar= 250 Microns
Elastic
A closer look shows the heterogeneity of the matrix. Again confirm elastic fibers by
focusing through them on the actual microscope.
Bar= 50 Microns
Fibro
Fibrocartilage ideally assumes a herring bone pattern. It has a linear orientation
related to it's function. Always look for the isolated chondrocytes in their lacunae.
