  1. Tissues • A tissue is a group of similar cells that usually have a common embryonic origin & functions together to carry out specialized activities. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  2. Epithelial Tissue: • Covers body surfaces; lines hollow organs,body cavities,and ducts;and forms glands. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  3. Connective Tissue Protects & supports body and its organs, binds organs together, stores energy reserves as fats and provides immunity. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  4. Muscle Tissue Responsible for movement and generation of force. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  5. Nervous Tissue Initiates and transmits action potentials (Nerve impulses) that help coordinate body activities. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  6. Epithelial Tissue • Cells are very closely packed & intracellular substance called matrix is minimal. • Cells lie on a basement membrane. Single layer of cells Several layer of cells Meghna.D.Punjabi

  7. Simple Epithelium • Found on absorptive or secretory surfaces where single layer enhances this process. • Types named on the shape of cells & more active the tissue, the taller are the cells. Types of Simple epithelium Meghna.D.Punjabi

  8. Squamous (Pavement) Epithelium • Single layer of flattened cells which fit closely like flat stones, forming a thin & smooth membrane. • Diffusion takes place freely through this thin, smooth, inactive lining of following structures:- heart, blood vessels, lymph vessels, alveoli of the lungs. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  9. Cuboidal Epithelium • Cube shaped cells. • Forms the tubules of kidneys & some glands. • Involved in secretion, absorption & excretion. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  10. Columnar Epithelium • Rectangular in shape. • Lining the organs of alimentary tract. • Some absorb the products of digestion & some secrete mucus. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  11. Ciliated Epithelium • Columnar cells with hair like processes called cilia. • Cilia consists of microtubules. • Wave like movement of many cilia propels the contents of the tubes, which they line in one direction only. • Found lining the utrine tubes & respiratory passages. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  12. Stratified Epithelia • Several layers of cells of various shapes. • Basement membranes absent. • Protects underlying structure from wear & tear. Keratinised Relaxed & Stretched Non-Keratinised Meghna.D.Punjabi

  13. Stratified Epithelium: Meghna.D.Punjabi

  14. Stratified Squamous Epithelium • Number of layers of cells • Deepest cells are columnar & as they grow towards the surface they become flattened & are then shed. • Non keratinised stratified epithelium (Wet surfaces) they are found in the conjunctiva of the eyes, lining of the mouth, pharynx, vagina, oesophagus. • Keratinised stratified epithelium (Dry surfaces) they are found in the skin, hair & nails, surface layer consists of dead epithelial cells to which the protein keratin has been added, this forms a tough, relatively water proof protective layer that prevents drying of the underlying live cells. Sub types Meghna.D.Punjabi

  15. Transitional Epithelium: • Composed of several layers of pear-shaped cells. • Found: Lining urinary bladder. • It allows for stretching as bladder fills. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  16. Glandular Epithelium: • Function: Secretion,accomplished by glandular cells that often lie in clusters deep to the covering and lining epithelium. • Gland may consists of one cell or a group of highly specialized epithelial cells that secrete into ducts,onto a surface or into the blood. • Production of such substances always require active work by the cells and results in an expenditure of energy. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  17. Types of Glands: GLANDS EXOCRINE ENDOCRINE Meghna.D.Punjabi

  18. Exocrine Glands: • Secrete their products into ducts(tubes) that empty at the surface of covering and lining epithelium or onto a free surface. • Product may be released at the skin surface or into lumen of hollow organs. • Secretions: Mucous,perspiration,oil,wax and digestive enzymes. • Ex: Sweat glands and Salivary glands. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  19. Endocrine Glands: • Are ductless. • Secretory products enter the ECF and diffuse into blood. • Secretions always HORMONES,chemicals that regulate various physiological activities. • Ex: Pituitary,Thyroid snd Adrenal Glands. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  20. Connective Tissue Cells forming are more widely separated from each other & intracellular substance (Matrix) is present in considerably larger amounts. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  21. Cells of connective tissues Meghna.D.Punjabi

  22. Fibroblasts • Large flat cells which produce collagen and elastic fibers and a matrix of extracellular material. • Particularly active in tissue repair (wound healing). Meghna.D.Punjabi

  23. Fat Cells • Known as adipocytes these cells occur singly or in groups. • Vary in size and shape according to the amount of fat they contain. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  24. Macrophages • Irregular shaped cells with granules in the cytoplasm. • Important part of the body’s defence mechanism as they are actively phagocytic,engulfing and digesting cell debris,bacteria and other foreign bodies. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  25. Leukocytes • WBC’s found in small numbers in healthy connective tissue but migrate in significant number during infection when they play an important role in tissue defense. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  26. Mast cells • Found in liver, spleen and around blood vessels. • Produce granules containing heparin, histamine etc. which are released when cells are damaged by diseases or injury. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  27. Loose Connective Tissue • Found in every part of the body providing elasticity and tensile strength. • Connects and supports other tissues. • Example: Under the skin Between muscles, Supporting blood vessels and nerve cells, Alimentary canal, Glands supporting secretory cells. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  28. Adipose Tissue Consists of fat cells Meghna.D.Punjabi

  29. White Adipose Tissue 20 to 25% of body weight in adults. It is found supporting kidneys & the eyes, between muscle fibres & under the skin where it acts as a thermal insulator Meghna.D.Punjabi

  30. Brown Adipose Tissue Found in newborn When brown tissue is metabolized produces less energy and considerably more heat than other fat , contributing to maintenance of body temperature. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  31. Dense Connective Tissue Meghna.D.Punjabi

  32. Fibrous tissue • Found forming ligaments, which binds bones together. • As an outer protective covering for bone called periostium. • Outer protective covering of some organs eg. kidneys,brain,lymph node. • Forming muscle sheaths called muscle facia which extends beyond the muscle to become the tendon that attaches muscle to bone. Meghna.D.Punjabi

  33. Elastic Tissue • Considerable extension & recoil. • Few cells & the matrix consists mainly of masses of elastic fibres secreted by fibroblasts. • Found in organs where alteration of shape is required eg. Large blood vessels, epiglotis & outer ears. Meghna.D.Punjabi
