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