four main tissues!

Epithelial Tissues
• The cells of epithelial are tightly packed
together to make a lining in different parts of
the body.
• Epithelial tissues can be served as the
membrane lining the organs and helping to
keep the body and the different organs
separate to keep them in place and to protect
them as well.
• Some of epithelial tissues examples are the
out side of your skin, inside your mouth, the
lining of the skin and surrounding the bodily
organs
Muscles Tissues
• Your muscle tissues in your body are things like your
heart, intestine (both), liver all these are muscles that
you don’t have control over. These are the ones that
work on there own.
• There are lots of different kinds of muscles E.G
smooth and Rough, slow and fast twitch and
voluntary and involuntary.
• Theses muscles are specialized tissues that can
contract.
• These muscles that have specialized proteins that
slide passed one and other and allow movement.
There is an example of this is your intestines.
Nervous Tissues
• There are two different types of nervous
tissues. They are neurons and glial cells.
• Nervous tissues send electrical signals around
the body to make the body move the say you
want you to do as well.
• These electrical messages are coming from
the brain and then sent down the spine and
then to the body to witch ever part of the body
it needs to go to and what to control.
Connective Tissues
• There are many types of connective tissues in
the body.
• Connective tissues means it will add support
to the joint or the structure of the joint.
• Most types of connective tissues have blood
going though it but cartilage does not. It is the
only one in the body that does not have blood
going through it.
• Some examples of connective tissue include
the inner layers of skin, tendons, ligaments,
cartilage, bone and fat tissue.
