Controlled variable 3 Examples: Skin, outer layer of organs, lining of tubes, body cavities 4 Function: Covers the body surface and organs like a wall to keep the inside and outside separate. 5 Structure: Contains long & narrow cells that allow them to pull like a rubber band. 6 Examples: Skeletal (biceps, triceps), cardiac (heart) muscle, and smooth (organ muscles) 7 Structure: Long and slender like a wire so that electrical impulses can travel along it quickly 8 Examples: brain, sensory receptors, nerves, and spinal cord 9 How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Independent variable 10 How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Dependent variable 11 Examples: Ligament, Cartilage, bone, tendon, blood 12 Specialized group of similar cells that work together to perform a function 13 Function: A body tissue that contracts or shortens, making body parts move. 14 How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Not a variable. 15 Function: A body tissue that provides support for the body and connects all of its parts 16 Structure: Cells that are tightly packed and have a definite top and bottom that is very strong. 17 Structure: Cells with jelly like material and with spindly fibers Number of cells Nervous Tissue Function: Epithelial tissue examples Nervous Tissue Structure Microscope used to identify the number of cells Type of organism Epithelial Tissue Function Nervous tissue examples Type of tissue Example of Connective Tissue Epithelial Tissue General Cell Shape/Structure Muscle tissue examples Tissues definition Connective Tissue Function Connective Tissue General Cell Shape/Structure Muscle Tissue General Cell Shape/Structure Muscle Tissue Function
