Document Summary
Fibrous intercellular substances function: provides strength and support all polypeptide chains (polymerization makes these stronger) Where: tissues such as lose connective tissue beneath the skin, humours of to go through the ecm) the eye: firm, gel-like: resists compression. Tissue fluid source of: blood derived by hydrostatic pressure at arterial end of capillaries constituents: water, salt, nutrients, hormones, oxygen returned by: capillary absorption osmosis, pinocytosis, lymphatic absorption. A primary tissue is a group of similar cells differentiated in the same direction and able to perform one or more specific functions (a group of cells organized in a collective manner for a particular function). Each primary or basic tissue further subdivided to give taxonomy of tissues (see classification of. Tissues document and in tables in lab manual/notes). Important points: the different intercellular substances, the four primary tissues and how they are defined.
