Tissue
A tissue is a group of structurally and functionally similar cells that work together to perform a specific task. In multicellular organisms, tissues make up organs and organ systems.
Characteristics of Tissues:
- Cellular Composition: Composed of one or more cell types with similar structure and function.
- Basement Membrane: A thin layer of extracellular matrix that connects tissues to underlying structures.
- Ground Substance: A matrix of extracellular material that fills the spaces between cells.
- Intercellular Junctions: Structures that connect cells to each other and maintain tissue integrity.
- Vascularization: May or may not contain blood vessels, which supply nutrients and remove waste products.
- Innervation: May or may not contain nerves, which transmit information and control tissue function.
Types of Tissues:
- Epithelial Tissue: Forms the lining of organs, body cavities, and glands.
- Connective Tissue: Provides support, storage, and protection.
- Muscle Tissue: Responsible for movement and contraction.
- Nervous Tissue: Transmits information through electrical and chemical signals.
