Tissue is formed when there is a collection of similar cells that act together to perform a certain function. The four main types of tissues include epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous tissue. Muscular tissue provides the means for movement, by and in our bodies and is classified into skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle. It is also made up of contractible fibers and is controlled by the nervous system.
Skeletal muscle are attached to bones by tendons, and cause movements of body parts in relation to each other by contracting and relaxing. Cardiac muscle tissue is found in the walls of the heart. Smooth muscle tissue forms the walls of our hollow organs. An example is our digestive system and blood vessels. Out of
