A tissue is a group or ensemble of
similar cells that have a specific
function. All of the cells come from
the Mother cell.
We have four kinds of tissues:
The Epithelial tissue have three
main functions
a) To protect and filtrate
b) Lining and cover the cavities
c) Secrets hormones, sweat,
mucus, and enzymes.
The Connective tissue supports,
connects, fills up spaces, or
separates the different tissues. It’s
divided into the cartilage, bone,
adipose tissue, and blood.
The Cartilage tissue is very flexible,
the cause of this is the COLLAGEN.
Normally it’s found in the nose, ribs,
the skeleton of the fetus, ears,
between the vertebrae, and the
end of the bones.
Is used to store energy, protects
organs, and to against cold. Also
found in the heart, skin, and
kidneys.
Muscular tissue are elongated cells
that Smooth: Called involuntary, is
found in the internal walls of the
organs and the blood vessels.
Cardiac: Is found only in the heart
and is involuntary in nature.
The Nervous tissue is the main
component of the brain and
spinal, is composed of nerve cells.
The functions are sensory input,
integration, the control over the
muscles and glands, and the
mental activity.
The Bone tissue the strongest and
rigid part of the Connective tissue.
The bone is formed by Calcium, in
chemistry is .
The Adipose tissue or “fat tissue”
