How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Dependent variable
Structure: Long and slender like a wire so that electrical impulses can travel along it quickly
How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Controlled variable
Examples: Skeletal (biceps, triceps), cardiac (heart) muscle, and smooth (organ muscles)
How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Not a variable.
Structure: Cells with jelly like material and with spindly fibers
Examples: Skin, outer layer of organs, lining of tubes, body cavities
How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Independent variable
Function: A body tissue that contracts or shortens, making body parts move.
Structure: Contains long & narrow cells that allow them to pull like a rubber band.
Examples: Ligament, Cartilage, bone, tendon, blood
Function: A body tissue that provides support for the body and connects all of its parts
Specialized group of similar cells that work together to perform a function
Function: Covers the body surface and organs like a wall to keep the inside and outside separate.
Function: Type of tissue that transmits nerve impulses (information) throughout the body
Structure: Cells that are tightly packed and have a definite top and bottom that is very strong.
Examples: brain, sensory receptors, nerves, and spinal cord
