Tissues

form the covering of the surfaces of the body located both in internal and external parts.

Thin, scaly-look like, flattened on the surface, fried-egg appearance with rounded nucleus.

Dice shape, square-like shape with large and spherical nuclei.

Taller rather than wide column in shape, long and rectangular shape with oblong nuclei or elongated nucleus contain goblet cells.

Fine hair-like projection

False stratification or appearance, free surfaces with hair-like projection, nuclei seen at different level that contain goblet cells

made up of one layer of cells

made up of one layer of cells but of different heights, thus showing a stratified appearance.

made up of more than two layers of cells

kind of tissue that use to connect, bind, holds, and support one part to another part of the body. This is the most vascularized and widely distributed inside the body. It gives the body many functions like supporting the muscles to produce movement, protects the internal and delicate organs, and connects the tissues of the body.

a large percentage of living cells and non-living material which is made of ground substance and fibrous structures.

SPECIALIZED CELL: Osteocytes MATRIX: Hard or calcified SPECIFIC FUNCTION: Support, protects, provides lever, storage, hematopoiesis

SPECIALIZED CELL: Red blood cell, White blood cell, Platelets MATRIX: Plasma - a fluid matrix SPECIFIC FUNCTION: Transport

SPECIALIZED CELL: Chondrocytes MATRIX: Firm, Collagenous fibers SPECIFIC FUNCTION: Support, cushion properties

SPECIALIZED CELL: Chondrocytes MATRIX: Collagenous Fibers SPECIFIC FUNCTION: Absorb compressive shock

SPECIALIZED CELL: Chondrocytes MATRIX: Elastic fibers SPECIFIC FUNCTION: Support the external

SPECIALIZED CELL: fibroblasts MATRIX: Collagen structure, elastic SPECIFIC FUNCTION: Holding the organs in a particular area; between the skin and muscles

SPECIALIZED CELL: Adipocytes MATRIX: Reticular structure with collagenous fibers SPECIFIC FUNCTION: Storage of lipids for energy building; insulator

composed of muscle cells that designed for contraction and movement.

also called muscle fibers.

CELL DESCRIPTION: Long cylindrical shape, Bundle forms, many nucleus ,many striations LOCATION: Skeletal muscles

CELL DESCRIPTION: Short branching shape Have few striations, single nucleus /two nucleus LOCATION: Heart /cardiac muscle

CELL DESCRIPTION: Spindle in shape of cells, one nucleus located at the center, absent of striations LOCATION: Visceral/smooth muscle

consists of two types of cells: conducting cells and supportive cells.
