Tissues - 3
Essential Question
How does form follow function in muscle and nervous tissue?
Muscle Tissue
Has cells that are contractile & excitable
Comes from mesoderm Cells called muscle fibers
Skeletal Muscle
Voluntary Striated multinucleated Packaged by CT Each muscle is an organ Most connect to a bone &
contraction causes bone to move
Cardiac Muscle
Involuntary Striated Found only in heart Cell junctions: intercalated discs
Gap junctions that allows ions pass directly into neighboring cells for transmission of nerve impulse
Smooth Muscle
Involuntary Nonstriated Found in walls of organs
Found all thru GI tract Contracts in waves called peristalsis
Keeps food moving thru
Nervous Tissue
Irritable Conductive Comes from endoderm Cells called neurons
Supporting Cells
Support neurons In CNS
Astrocytes Microglia Oligodendocytes Ependymal cells
In PNS Schwann cells Satellite cells
