This document discusses the main types of tissues in the body: epithelial, nervous, muscle, bone, blood, tendon, and ligament tissues. It provides details on the cellular composition and structures of each tissue type. For example, it notes that blood contains erythrocytes, leukocytes, thrombocytes, and plasma. Bone tissue contains haversian canals with blood vessels and nerves, as well as lacunae containing osteocytes. The document concludes with review questions related to the different tissues.

1. Animal Tissues

2. Epithelial tissue
• Simple (single layer)
cuboidal (cube shape)
• Simple columnar
(single layer of
column shape)

4. Nervous Tissue
• Neuron (nerve cell): Cell body, dendrite,
axon. Glial cells support the neuron

6. Neurotransmitter crosses synapse

7. Schwann
cells make
up the myelin
sheath.
Impulse
jumps from
node to node

8. 3 types of
muscle
tissue:
skeletal,
smooth,
cardiac

9. • Striations Intercalated discs

10. • Loose connective tissue (under skin and
epithelial tissue)

11. Bone• Haversian canal
with blood vessel
and nerve
• Lacuna openings
with osteocytes
in them
• Calcium
carbonate matrix

12. Blood:
Erythrocytes
, red blood
cells
• Hemoglobin carries oxygen
• No nucleus
• Made in bone marrow

13. Leukocytes: White blood cells

14. Thrombocytes: platelets
• Platelets adhering to damaged vessel

15. Blood composition
• RBC (hematocrit)
40%
• WBC 1%
• Platelets 1%
• Plasma 58%

16. Tendon: bone to muscle
More flexible and thicker

17. Ligament: bone to bone
Not as flexible or thick

18. REVIEW QUESTIONS
• What are the scientific names for the three
types of cells in blood?
• What is released by basophils to stimulate
inflammatory response?
• What type of protein makes up the ACL?
• What part of the blood is used for DNA
fingerprinting?

19. • What muscle tissue branches?
• What muscle tissue is involuntary and
lines digestive tract?
• What type of epithelium tissue is found
inside the cheek?
• What is adipose?

20. REVIEW
• What is in the lacuna?
• Which is thicker tendons or ligaments?
• What tissue has matrix?
• What makes calcium carbonate in bones?
