Columnar epithelial cells Photo copyright Richard Kessel/Visuals Unlimited, Inc. © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 10 Classification Based on Arrangement • Simple: one cell layer • Stratified: several layers • Pseudostratified: appears to be several layers but is not • Transitional: several layers of easily stretched cells © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 11 Classification Based on Arrangement (cont’d.) Pseudostratified ciliated, columnar epithelium Photo copyright John D. Cunningham/Visuals Unlimited, Inc. © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 12 Classification Based on Arrangement (cont’d.) Transitional epithelium Photo copyright Richard Kessel/Visuals Unlimited, Inc. © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 13 Classification Based on Function • • • • Mucous membrane: mucus production Exocrine glands: simple and compound Endocrine: hormone secretion Endothelium: lines vessels – Endocardium • Mesothelium (serous): lines great cavities © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 14 Connective Tissue © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 15 Introduction • Cells with large amount of intercellular material • Matrix embedded with: – Collagen – Elastin • Subgroups: loose, dense, specialized © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 16 Loose Connective Tissue • Fills space between and penetrates organs • Areolar: injury repair, phagocytosis, inflammatory response – Fibroblasts, histiocytes, mast cells • Adipose: fat storage • Reticular: framework © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 17 Loose Connective Tissue (cont’d.) Areolar (loose) connective tissue Photo copyright John D. Cunningham/Visuals Unlimited, Inc. © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 18 Dense Connective Tissue • Regular arrangement – Tendons, ligaments, aponeuroses • Irregular arrangement – Muscle sheaths, joint capsules, fascia © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 19 Dense Connective Tissue (cont’d.) Tendon (dense) connective tissue Photo copyright John D. Cunningham/Visuals Unlimited, Inc. © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 20 Specialized Connective Tissue • Cartilage – Cells called chondrocytes • Found in lacunae – Types • Hyaline: ribs, nose, trachea • Fibrocartilage: intervertebral disks • Elastic: ears, auditory tubes, epiglottis © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 21 Specialized Connective Tissue (cont’d.) • Bone – Compact – Cancellous – Mineral salts: especially calcium and phosphorus • Teeth – Dentin – Enamel © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 22 Specialized Connective Tissue (cont’d.) Bone (osseus tissue) Photo copyright Fred Hossler/Visuals Unlimited, Inc. © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 23 Specialized Connective Tissue (cont’d.) • Blood: fluid portion and formed elements • Lymphoid: antibody production and disease protection • Reticuloendothelial system: phagocytosis – Kupffer cells in liver – Macrophages – Neuroglia • Synovial: lines joints © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 24 Connective Tissue Functions • Support – Bones, cartilage • Nourishment – Blood • Transportation – Blood • Connection – Tendons, ligaments © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 25 Connective Tissue Functions (cont’d.) • Movement – Bones, tendons • Protection and insulation – Bones, blood, fat • Storage – Bone, fat • Attachment and separation – Attaches skin to muscle © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 26 Muscle Tissue © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 27 Muscle Tissue (cont’d.) • Smooth – Spindle-shaped, single nucleus – Not striated – Involuntary – Digestive tract, arteries and veins, ureters – Peristalsis © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 28 Muscle Tissue (cont’d.) Smooth (nonstriated involuntary) muscle Photo copyright R. Calentine/Visuals Unlimited, Inc. © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 29 Muscle Tissue (cont’d.) • Striated (skeletal) – Long thin cells – Multinucleated and striated – Actin and myosin – Voluntary – Movement by pulling on bones © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 30 Muscle Tissue (cont’d.) Skeletal (striated voluntary) muscle Photo copyright R. Calentine/Visuals Unlimited, Inc. © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 31 Muscle Tissue (cont’d.) • Cardiac – Only in the heart – Uninucleated and striated – Involuntary – Cylindrical shape • Connected to other cardiac muscle cells by intercalated disks © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 32 Muscle Tissue (cont’d.) Cardiac muscle Photo copyright John D. Cunningham/Visuals Unlimited, Inc. © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 33 Nervous Tissue © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 34 Nervous Tissue (cont’d.) • Neurons – Conducting cells – Very long: called nerve fibers – Parts • Cell body: contains nucleus • Dendrites: rootlike extensions that receive stimuli • Axons: long thin extensions that transmit impulse © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 35 Nervous Tissue (cont’d.) • Neuroglia: supporting cells • Nervous tissue – Makes up brain, spinal cord and nerves – Is most highly organized tissue of the body – Controls and coordinates body activities – Allows perception – Controls emotion and reasoning – Stores memories © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 36 Nervous Tissue (cont’d.) Motor neuron Photo copyright Triarch/Visuals Unlimited © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 37 Summary • Introduced the concept of tissues and how to classify tissues • Classified epithelial tissue based on shape and arrangement • Described the three major types of connective tissue • Described the three types of muscle tissue • Discussed nervous tissue and its functions © 2010 Delmar, Cengage Learning 38
