|
Epithelial
|
-Lines, covers, and protects other tissues and organs. -Cells tightly packed together. -Contains a BASEMENT membrane. -One free surface faces a body fluid and the other faces the environment. |
|
|
Connective
|
-Provide support and keeps body parts together. -Most ABUNDANT tissues in the body. -Cells widely separated by MATRIX. |
|
|
Muscle
|
-Contract when stimulated to cause movement of body parts. -Consist of three subtypes: ~Skeletal ~Cardiac ~Smooth |
|
|
Nervous
|
-Provides communication between all organ systems -Found in the brain, spinal cords, and nerves |
|
|
Skeletal Muscle
|
-Attaches to move bones. -Long and striated (stripy). -Voluntary control (able to control movement). |
|
|
Cardiac Muscle
|
-Found only in the heart. -Cells are branching and striated. -NOT under voluntary control (not able to be controlled and movement takes place on its own. |
|
|
Smooth Muscle
|
-Found in soft internal organs. -Cells taper at the end and are NOT striated. |
