BMS1021 - Lectures 12 to 16
'Each of the four tissues is specialised for a particular function and has a distinctive pattern of organisation'
-
MUSCLE TISSUE
-
Smooth Musclemainly in the walls of hollow tubes and organs
- arteries
- trachea
- oesophagus
-
-
Skeletal Muscleusually attached bone via tendons
- movement
- maintain posture
- support soft tissue
- temperature regulation
- store nutrients
-
growth
hypertrophy
involves an increase in size of skeletal muscle through a growth in size of its component cells
hyperplasis
the enlargement of an organ or tissue caused by an increase in the reproduction rate of its cells
NERVOUS TISSUE
much or the nervous tissue you cannot see with light microscopy. nerve axons and dendrites are difficult to see. unless the brain and spinal cord which is all nervous tissue
-
NERVE CELLS (neurons)
-
-
Cell body (soma, perikaryon)
-
-
PERIPHERAL NERVES contain
- fibroblast
- mast cells (immune cells)
- blood vessels
- axons
- schwann cells
-
-
-
CONNECTIVE TISSUE
consisting of a sparse population of cells scattered through an extracellular matrix
most connective tissue is highly vascular
Composition
Extracellular Matrix
-
Ground substance; passage and exchange of molecules and metabolites, lubricant, barrier to envaders
-
-
-
Water, electrolytes, hormones, gases
Cells function in local maintenance, repair and storage
-
-
-
-
Osteoprogenitor, osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteoclasts (found in bone)
