Epithelial tissue
• Simple (single layer) cuboidal (cube shape)
• Simple columnar (single layer of column shape)
Nervous Tissue
• Neuron (nerve cell): Cell body, dendrite, axon. Glial cells support the neuron
Neurotransmitter crosses synapse
Schwann cells make
up the myelin sheath. Impulse
jumps from node to node
3 types of muscle tissue:
skeletal, smooth, cardiac
• Striations Intercalated discs
• Loose connective tissue (under skin and epithelial tissue)
Bone• Haversian canal
with blood vessel and nerve
• Lacuna openings with osteocytes in them
• Calcium carbonate matrix
Blood:Erythrocytes, red blood
cells
• Hemoglobin carries oxygen• No nucleus• Made in bone marrow
Leukocytes: White blood cells
Thrombocytes: platelets
• Platelets adhering to damaged vessel
Blood composition
• RBC (hematocrit) 40%
• WBC 1%• Platelets 1%• Plasma 58%
Tendon: bone to muscleMore flexible and thicker
Ligament: bone to boneNot as flexible or thick
