Dependent variable 2 Function: A body tissue that provides support for the body and connects all of its parts 3 Structure: Contains long & narrow cells that allow them to pull like a rubber band. 4 Structure: Cells that are tightly packed and have a definite top and bottom that is very strong. 5 Examples: Ligament, Cartilage, bone, tendon, blood 6 How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Independent variable 7 Function: Covers the body surface and organs like a wall to keep the inside and outside separate. 8 Examples: Skeletal (biceps, triceps), cardiac (heart) muscle, and smooth (organ muscles) 9 How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Not a variable. 10 Function: Type of tissue that transmits nerve impulses (information) throughout the body 11 Specialized group of similar cells that work together to perform a function 12 Function: A body tissue that contracts or shortens, making body parts move. 13 Examples: Skin, outer layer of organs, lining of tubes, body cavities 14 Structure: Cells with jelly like material and with spindly fibers 15 Examples: brain, sensory receptors, nerves, and spinal cord 16 How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Controlled variable 17 Structure: Long and slender like a wire so that electrical impulses can travel along it quickly Connective Tissue Function Type of tissue Connective Tissue General Cell Shape/Structure Nervous Tissue Function: Nervous Tissue Structure Number of cells Epithelial tissue examples Muscle tissue examples Muscle Tissue General Cell Shape/Structure Muscle Tissue Function Epithelial Tissue General Cell Shape/Structure Microscope used to identify the number of cells Nervous tissue examples Epithelial Tissue Function Example of Connective Tissue Type of organism Tissues definition
