The Animal Body Tour
Levels of structure• Cells
• Tissues: Cells combined in distinct ways into layers. Specialization (division of labor)
• Organs: Made of more than one kind of tissue. Perform common function.
• Organ systems: Several organs combine to perform major body function.
Levels of structure• Example, circulatory system
Levels of structure• 11 organ systems
Tissue types (4)• 1) Epithelial tissue
– Covers outer and inner ____________ of body– Cells tightly joined together (no blood vessels in
intercellular spaces: materials must diffuse in and out)
– Two major types: covering and lining, and glandular
Tissue types• 1) Epithelial tissue types (covering and lining)
– Simple epithelial (1 cell layer). Further subdivided based on cell shape
• Squamous (flattened)
• Cuboidal (cube shaped)
• Columnar (rectangular)
Tissue types• 1) Epithelial tissue types (covering and lining)
– Stratified epithelial (multiple cell layers). Further subdivided by cell shape
• Ex., squamous (flattened)
– Pseudostratified epithelial (one cell layer but looks like 2 because __________ not all in same position)
• Ex., pseudostratified columnar (rectangular)
Tissue types• 1) Epithelial tissue
– Glandular (secretes materials) epithelial tissue• Exocrine glands: connected to epithelium surface by
duct (Ex., sweat glands, salivary glands)
• Endocrine glands: not connected to epithelium surface (Ex., adrenal gland of kidney). Secretions called hormones, enter blood and stay within body
Tissue types• Epithelial tissue functions:
– Protection: invasion, dehydration, physical injury, etc.– Secretion of chemicals: ex., digestive tract
• Note: usually with great regenerative ability– Ex., stomach lining replaced every ______ days
Tissue types• 2) Connective tissue
– Used to bind and support all other tissues– Other special functions too– Composed of cells and matrix (extracellular
material)
• Two types: – Connective tissue proper – Special connective tissues
Tissue types• Connective tissue proper
– 1) Loose connective tissue• Matrix often contains: collagen (strong protein
fibers), elastin (elastic protein fibers)

osteoblasts move in and secrete bone. Process stops by age 20.
Bones• 206 bones in human body
Bones• In lab: use rat skeleton (240 bones total). Need to
know names of bones and groups shown in manual. DO BEFORE COMING TO LAB!
Cartilage• Generally, firm but flexible connective tissue• Cells called chondrocytes• Contains collagen and elastin fibers in matrix

• Ex, muscles that work fingers are in lower arm. Attach to fingers by tendons that you can see on the back of your hand
Ligaments• Hold adjacent bones together. Can determine how
bones move (ex, knee joint)• Tend to stretch in one direction
Ligaments/Tendons• Similar, in that little to no ________ supply
present• So, very slow to heal if damaged. Also, scar
