    Animal Tissues: Asia Technological School of Science and Arts

    Uploaded by

    Marivic Diano
    This document discusses the six types of animal tissues: epithelial tissues, connective tissues, muscle tissues, nerve tissues, motor neurons, and vascular tissues. Epithelial tissues form linings and coverings, connective tissues provide structure and support, muscle tissues allow for movement, nerve tissues transmit electrical signals, motor neurons carry signals to muscles, and vascular tissues include blood and lymph involved in circulation. The document further explains the subtypes and functions of each tissue type.

    Animal tissues

    1.Epithelial Tissues
    -these tissues form the linings or
    coverings of free body surfaces both
    internal and external.
    Ex: External portion of the skin and inner
    linings of the digestive tract, lungs, blood
    vessels.
    Sweat gland-epithelial cells with glandular
    function.

    3. Muscle Tissues
    -these tissues have greater capacity
    for
    contraction than most other tissues.
    -they are responsible for most
    movement in higher animals.
    Ex: cardiac, smooth and striated.
    4. Nerve Tissues
    -composed of nerve cells which are
    easily stimulated and can transmit
    impulses rapidly.
    - each cell is composed of cell body
    containing the nucleus and one or
    more extensions called dendrite fibers.

    2.1 Connective tissue


    - these are tissues whose cells are
    embedded in an extensive intercellular
    matrix.

    5. Motor Neuron
    -carries the impulse to the axon and
    then to the neutral root and to
    the end
    organ in contact with the
    effector which
    can be a muscle.

    Connective tissue Proper


    -these are composed of cells and
    fibers which are embedded in the
    amorphous ground which is mixture of
    protein, carbohydrates and lipids.

    6. Vascular Tissues
    -these tissues are the blood and the
    lymph which are very important in the
    circulatory processes.

    a. Loose Connective tissues


    -these tissues have loose cells with
    irregularly arranged fibers.
    -allow more flexibility of the animal.
    Ex: fat tissues and collagens
    b. Dense Connective Tissues
    -these tissues have compact
    arrangement of many fibers which
    limited ground substance and a small
    number of cells.
    Ex: Tendons (connect bones with muscles)
    Ligaments ( connect bones with bones)
    2.2 Cartilages
    -these are specialized form of dense
    fibrous connective tissues in which the
    intercellular matrix has a rubber
    consistency.
    Ex: nose, ears, larynx, trachea
    -Young babies are composed of
    cartilages but
    replaced by ones as they
    grow old.
    2.3 Bones
    -these are connective tissues with
    hard, relatively rigid matrix
    impregnated with calcium carbonates
    and calcium phosphates.

    Blood
    a. RBC
    -red blood cells or erythrocytes.
    -responsible for carrying the
    oxygen and other digested food
    to all parts of the body.
    b. WBC
    -White blood cells or the
    leukocytes.
    -proactive elements in the
    immune system
    that protect
    the system from infections or
    microorganisms.
    c. Thrombocytes
    -the blood platelets
    -responsible for blood
    coagulation esp.
    when there
    is hemorrhage due to the
    wounds.
    Lymph
    -the liquid that develops from
    an
    inflamed body and at the
    same time
    responsible for
    metastasis.
    Metastasis
    -the process wherein toxins
    produced by cancerous cells are
    carried from one part of body to
    another.
