Tissues
- Intercellular Junction connect
cells
- Tight Junction closes space between cells by fusing cell membranes
- Cells line the small intestine
- Cells line the small intestine
- Desmosomes bind cells by forming "Spot Welds" between cell
membranes
- Cells of the outer skin layer
- Cells of the outer skin layer
- Gap Junctions form tubular channels between cells that allow the exchange of substances
- Muscle cells of the heart and digestive
system
- Muscle cells of the heart and digestive
system

- 4 Major Types of Human
Tissue
- Epithelial
- Function
- protection, secretion, absorption and excretion
- protection, secretion, absorption and excretion
- Location
- covers body surface, covers and lines internal organs, compose glands
- covers body surface, covers and lines internal organs, compose glands
- Charecteristics
- lack blood vessels, cells readily divide, cells are tightly packed together.
- lack blood vessels, cells readily divide, cells are tightly packed together.
- Function
- Connective
- Function
- bind, support, protect, fill spaces, store fat, produce blood cells
- bind, support, protect, fill spaces, store fat, produce blood cells
- Location
- widely distributed throughout the body
- widely distributed throughout the body
- Charecteristics
- Mostly have a good blood supply, cells are farther apart than epithelial cells, extracellular matrix in
between
- Mostly have a good blood supply, cells are farther apart than epithelial cells, extracellular matrix in

- Function
- Muscle
- Function
- Movement
- Movement
- Location
- attached to bones, in the walls of hollow internal organs, heart
- attached to bones, in the walls of hollow internal organs, heart
- Charecteristics
- Able to contract in response to specific stimuli
- Able to contract in response to specific stimuli
- Function
- Nervous
- Function
- conduct impulses for coordination, regulation, intergration and sensory
reception
- conduct impulses for coordination, regulation, intergration and sensory
reception
- Location
- brain, spinal cord, nerves
- brain, spinal cord, nerves
- Charecteristics
- cells communicate with each other and other body parts
- cells communicate with each other and other body parts
- Function
- Epithelial
- Connective
- Connective tissue connect, supports, protects, provides frameworks, fills spaces, stores fat,
produces blood cells, protects against infection, and helps repair damaged tissues.
- Connective tissue cells usually have considerable extracellular matrix between them.
- This extracellular matrix consists of fibers and a ground substance (gel-like material).
