Document Summary

3-4: chemical level - simplest level atoms combine to form molecules, molecules associate in specific ways to form organelles (basic components of the microscopic cells). 4 basic tissue types in human body epithelium - covers the body surface and lines its cavities. Also direction and movement - found in kidney tubules, glands simple columnar digestion and secretion (digestive tract). Contain all organelles pseudo stratified columnar a single layer, cilia and mucus secretion are local specializations (respiratory tract) transitional epithelia (not simple) lines the bladder (must stretch and fill). The basal layers are columnar cuboidal; apical layers become increasingly flattened/squamous as filling occurs structured stratified squamous undergo mitosis to keep generating layers - found in mouth: types of epithelial cells. Connective tissue five types mesenchyme first tissue formed from mesoderm germ layer - mesenchymal cells. + fluid ground substance & fine fibrils source of all other connective tissues connective tissue proper.
