Presentation Transcript

  1. Vertebrate Body Structure

  2. Vertebrate Body

  3. Vertebrate Tissue Types

  4. Levels of Body Organization

  5. Epithelial Tissue • Covers internal and external structures • Purpose • Protection • Secretion • Gas exchange • Basement membrane and connective tissue support epithelial tissue

  6. Epithelial Tissue - Simple

  7. Epithelial Tissue - Stratified

  8. Connective Tissue • Very diverse functions • Support  Cartilage, bone, dense, loose • Energy storage  Adipose • Gas exchange  Red blood cells • Immune system  White blood cells

  9. Connective Tissue (1)

  10. Connective Tissue (2)

  11. Bone Structure

  12. White and Red Blood Cells

  13. Muscle Tissue • Smooth • Controls diameter of tubes (blood vessels and digestive system) • Involuntary • Striated • Skeletal – attaches to bone • Cardiac – heart muscle

  14. Striated Muscle Tissue • Contain contractile unit composed of actin and myosin protein • Cells bundled together to form muscle fibers • Densely packed actin/myosin fibers gives striated appearance • Multinucleated cells – syncytial

  15. Muscle Fiber

  16. Muscle Tissue

  17. Nerve Tissue • Neurons – functional unit of the nervous system • Glial Cells – support cells

  18. Nerve Tissue
