Tissues
Definition:
Levels of Organization:Parts:
Types:
A group of similar cells that perform a specialized function.
1. Epithelial – form protective coverings and function in secretion and absorption.
2. Connective – support soft body parts and bind structures together.
3. Muscle – produce body movements
4. Nervous – conduct impulses that help control and coordinate body activities.

2 – Extracellular matrix – nonliving portion that transmits signals from outside cells into cells

Introduction to Tissues
• A tissue is a group of similar cells That usually have common origin & function.
• The structure & properties of tissue depends on the nature of extracellular material.
• Tissues may be hard, semisolid, or even liquid in their consistency,
• Examples: bone, fat and blood

4 Basic Tissue Types
• Epithelial Tissue: Covers body surfaces & lines hollow organs, body cavities, and ducts. Forms glands
• Connective Tissue: Protect & supports the body & its organs. Binds organs together, store energy & help provide immunity to disease- causing organisms
• Muscular Tissue: Generates physical force
• Nervous Tissue: Detect changes in a variety of conditions inside & outside the body & respond by generating nerve impulses
