4 The Tissue Level of Organization This Outline is not complete , make sure you are filling in details , answering questions , and adding images/drawings and defining words … Filling in and completing the Outline is “ LEARNING”, it helps you create connections between topics and build a PERSONAL STUDY GUIDE . For the Exams and the Cumulative Final Exam, if you create a detailed PERSONAL STUDY GUIDE you shouldn’t have to go back to the book, or the lectures notes! (this only works if you fill out the outline! 4.1 Identify the body’s four basic types of tissues and describe their roles?  Define histology.  List the four basic types of tissues in the body. 4.2 Describe the characteristics and functions of epithelial cells? o Functions of Epithelia o Intercellular Connections o The Epithelial Surface o The Basement Membrane o Epithelial Renewal and Repair  List five important characteristics of epithelial tissue.  Identify four essential functions of epithelial tissue.  Identify the three main types of epithelial cell junctions.  What physiological functions are enhanced by the presence of microvilli or cilia on epithelial cells? 4.3 Describe the relationship between form and function for each type of epithelium? o Cell Layers o Cell Shapes o Classification of Epithelia o Glandular Epithelia  Identify the three cell shapes characteristic of epithelial cells.  Using a light microscope, a tissue appears as a simple squamous epithelium. Can this be a sample of the skin surface? Why or why not?  Name the two primary types of glandular epithelia.  The secretory cells of sebaceous glands fill with secretions and then rupture, releasing their contents. Which mode of secretion occurs in sebaceous glands?  Which type of gland releases its secretions directly into the extracellular fluid?

4.4 Compare the structures and functions of the various types of connective tissues? o Connective Tissue Proper o Types of Connective Tissue Proper o Fluid Connective Tissues o Supporting Connective Tissues  Identify several functions of connective tissues.  List the three types of connective tissues.  Which type of connective tissue contains primarily triglycerides?  Lack of vitamin C in the diet interferes with the ability of fibroblasts to produce collagen. What effect might this interference have on connective tissue?  Which two types of connective tissue have a fluid matrix?  Identify the two types of supporting connective tissue.  Why does cartilage heal more slowly than bone? 4.5 Explain how epithelial and connective tissues combine to form four types of tissue membranes, and specify the functions of each? o Mucous Membranes o Serous Membranes o The Cutaneous Membrane o Synovial Membranes  Identify the four types of tissue membranes found in the body.  How does a plasma (cell) membrane differ from a tissue membrane?  What is the function of fluids produced by serous membranes?  The lining of the nasal cavity is normally moist, contains numerous mucous cells, and rests on a layer of areolar tissue. Which type of membrane is this? 4.6 Describe the three types of muscle tissue and the special structural features of each? o Skeletal Muscle Tissue o Cardiac Muscle Tissue o Smooth Muscle Tissue  Identify the three types of muscle tissue in the body.  Voluntary control of muscle contraction is restricted to which type of muscle tissue?  Which type of muscle tissue has small, tapering cells with single nuclei and no obvious striations? 4.7 Discuss the basic structure and role of nervous tissue?  A tissue contains irregularly shaped cells with many projections, including some several centimeters long. These are probably which type of cell?
