PRE-LAB EXPERIMENT 2 (ANIMAL TISSUE)

Group of cells that have a similar structure and act together to perform a spesific function. This statement defines

• tissue

• animal tissue

• epithelial tissue

• muscle tissue

• connective tissue

Tissues are related to organs by which an organ consists of a group of different tissues working together to do a spesific job.

• Yes, it is.

• No, it isn't.

The four basic types of animal tissues are epithelial tissue, muscle tissue, connective tissue and nerve tissue. State the unique characteristics of epithelial tissue.

• The cells are tightly packed together.

• One free surface of epithelial tissue is exposed to air or fluid.

• One surface of the tissue layer is attached to a basement membrane.

This figure shows THREE different types of muscle tissue. Name tissue A.

Name tissue B.

Name muscle C.
