  Cartilage tissue
• What are the main types of animal tissues?

  • Blood
  • Bone
  • Epithelial
  • Cartilage
  • Adipose
  • Nervous
  • Muscle
  • Connective
• What are the key similarities and differences between the various animal tissue types shown?

  Similarities:

  • All are composed of specialized cells
  • Perform specific functions to support the body

  
  

  Differences:

  • Structure (e.g. blood vs. bone vs. muscle)
  • Function (e.g. transport vs. support vs. movement)
  • Location within the body
  • Appearance under a microscope
• How do the different animal tissue types work together to allow the body to function?

  • Blood transports materials to other tissues
  • Bone, cartilage, and connective tissue provide structure
  • Epithelial tissue forms protective barriers
  • Muscle tissue enables movement and contraction
  • Nervous tissue coordinates and regulates bodily functions
  • Adipose tissue stores energy for the body
• What is the first type of animal tissue mentioned?

  Blood
• What do osteocytes do in bone tissue?

  Provide structural support
• What is the role of white blood cells?

  Immunity

  Cartilage
• What is the primary function of the lungs?

  Gas exchange
• What do chondrocytes do in cartilage?

  Provide support and cushioning
• What type of tissue binds other tissues together?

  Connective
• What is the function of the lungs?

  To facilitate gas exchange - taking in oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide

  Signal transmission
• What are the components of an organ and their functions?

  • Tissues: Multiple types contribute to the organ's overall function
  • Cells: Make up tissues and perform specific tasks
  • Extracellular matrix: Support structure that holds tissues together
• Where is the brain located in the human body?

  In the head
• What characterizes connective tissue?

  Various cell types in a fibrous matrix
• How do the arteries and veins work together in the cardiovascular system?

  Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart, while veins return deoxygenated blood to the heart
• How do the components of an organ work together?

  Tissues, cells, and matrix collaborate for function
• What is the function of the brain?

  • Controls and coordinates the body's functions
  • Processes sensory information
  • Generates thoughts, emotions, and memories
