Tissue Concept Map

Briana Urena Period 2

Connective Tissue

Function: Supports and connect other tissues; from the connective tissue sheath that surrounds muscle cells, to the tendons that attach muscles to bones, and to the skeleton that supports the positions of the body.

Connective Tissue

Location: Connective Tissue is found all througt the body in bone, ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and adipose.

Function

Composed of a loose collection of specialized cells, called adipocytes, embedded in a mesh of collagen fibers.

Adipose

Functions as a fuel tank for the storage of lipids and triglycerides.

Location

Primarily located beneath the skin, but is also found around internal organs.

Picture

Function

Used for strength, Links bones to bones at joints and tendons. Also acts a connection between bones or cartilage and muscle

Dense

Fibrous

Location

Found in ligaments

Picture

Function

Holds organs in place and attaches epithelial tissue to other underlying tissues. It also serves as a reservoir of water and salts for surrounding tissues.

Areolar

Location

Found surrounding blood vessels, nerve bundles, muscles, and organs.fills the spaces between organs and connects your skin to your underlying muscle.

Picture

Function

Storing minerals, providing internal support, protecting vital organs, enabling movement, and providing attachment sites for muscles and tendons.

Bone

Location

Found in Tendons and ligaments.

Picture

Function

Helps in the transport of gases, nutrients, hormones as well as the elimination of the waste materials.

Blood

Location

Circulates in cardiovascular system

Picture

Function

Helps hold the body together. Hyaline cartilage provides support and flexibility to different parts of the body. Hyaline cartilage also provides mechanical support for the respiratory tree, nose, articular surfaces, and developing bones.

Hyaline

Location

Found on many joint surfaces. It is also most commonly found in the ribs, nose, larynx, and trachea.

Picture

Function

Tough, dense, and fibrous material that helps fill in the torn part of the cartilage

Fibro-

cartilage

Location

Predominantly found in the intervertebral disks and at the insertions of ligaments and tendons.

Picture

Function

The main funciton is fibers hold connective tissues together, even during the movement of the body. These elastic fiber contains the protein elastin along with lesser amounts of other proteins and glycoproteins. The main property of elastin is that after being stretched or compressed, it will return to its original shape.

Elastic

Location

Located in regions where tendons attach to bones, the intervertebral discs, and the pubic symphysis.

Major Human Body Tissue

Epithelial Tissue

Function:

protection, secretion, absorption, excretion, filtration, diffusion, and sensory reception.

Epithelial

Tissue

Location:

Wide spread throughout the body

Forms the covering of the human body, lines body cavities, and hollows organs.

Is the major tissue in glands.

Function

secrets lubricating substance, allows diffusion and filtration

Simple

Squamous

Location

blood and lymphatic vessels, air sacs of lungs, lining of the heart

Picture

Function

Secretory ducts of small glands, kidney tubules

Simple

Coboidal

Location

Allows secretion and absorbtion

Picture

Function

Consist of a single layer of cells that are taller than they are wide.They lines the small intestine where it absorbs nutrients from the lumen of the intestine.

Simple

Columnar

Location

Located in the stomach where it secretes acid, digestive enzymes and mucous.

Picture

Function

provides protection for underlying tissues.

Location

Stratifed

Squamous

Located on body surface found in nearly every organ system where the body comes into close contact with the outside environment – from the skin to the respiratory, digestive, excretory and reproductive systems. They also protect the body from desiccation and water loss.

Picture

Function

The cilia and mucous secretions help collect foreign materials so you can cough or sneeze them out. It secretes mucus which is moved with cilia.

Location

Pseudostratified

Ciliated

Columnar

Epithelium

Trachea and upper respiratory tract. Found in larger respiratory airways of the nasal cavity, trachea and bronchi.

Picture

Function

Stretch's readily in order to accommodate fluctuation of volume of the liquid in an organ

Transitional

Location

Found lining the urinary bladder, ureters and urethra, as well as in the ducts of the prostrate gland.

Picture

Nervous Tissue

Function: Responsible for coordinating and controlling many body activities. As well as stimulates muscle contraction, creates an awareness of the environment, and plays a major role in emotions, memory, and reasoning.

Nervous Tissue

Location: Found in the brain, spinal cord, and nerves.

Function

Responsible for the electrical signals that communicate information about sensations, and that produce movements in response to those stimuli, along with inducing thought processes within the brain.

Neurons

Location

Central nervous system

Picture

Function

Their role is to be the support team and cheerleaders for the neurons. The neuroglia: Form myelin, which wraps around axons to speed up electric impulse conduction.

Location

Neuroglial

There are six types of neuroglia. Four types of neuroglia found in the central nervous system are astrocytes, microglial cells, ependymal cells, and oligodendrocytes. The two types of neuroglia found in the peripheral nervous system are satellite cells and Schwann cells.

Picture

Mucscluar Tissue

Function: Muscluar tissue is responsible for the movement in our body as they facilite bodily functions, such as mobility, stability, posture etc.

Muscles

Tissue

Location: Muscular tissue is loctaed althoughout the body under each sub-category holds its own purpose.

Function

Works to keep your heart pumping through involuntary movements. Also vital for pumping blood throughout the cardiovascular system.

Cardiac

Location

Loacted in the walls of the heart

Picture

Function

Skeletal muscles enable humans to move and perform daily activities. They play an essential role in respiratory mechanics and help in maintaining posture and balance. They also protect the vital organs in the body.

Skeletal

Location

Found between bones, and uses tendons to connect the epimysium to the periosteum, or outer covering, of bone.

Picture

Function

Involved in many 'housekeeping' functions of the body. The muscular walls of your intestines contract to push food through your body.

Smooth

Location:

Location: In walls of hollow visceral organs, except the heart, appear spindle-shaped, and are also under involuntary control.
