Document Summary
Tissues: groups of cells with similar structure and specialized function. The four types of tissues are cemn- connective, epithelial, nervous, muscle. Muscle tissues contract to generate forces: three type of muscle tissues are skeletal, smooth and cardiac. Epithelial tissues exchange materials between the cell and its environment. Organized into sheets and secretory glands. (exo and endocrine glands) Connective tissue connects supports and anchors various body parts: few cells dispersed with an abundance of extracellular material. Organs: two or more types of primary tissues that function together to perform a particular function or functions stomach has epithelial lining, smooth walls, nervous contractions and connective tissue to bind all the above. Homeostatic factors: concentration of nutrient molecules, concentration of o2 and co2, concentration of waste products, ph, concentration of water salt and other electrolytes, volume and pressure, temp. Carbs: defined by structure- humans digest starch not cellulose.
