Dependent variable 4 Structure: Cells that are tightly packed and have a definite top and bottom that is very strong. 5 Structure: Contains long & narrow cells that allow them to pull like a rubber band. 6 Structure: Cells with jelly like material and with spindly fibers 7 Function: A body tissue that provides support for the body and connects all of its parts 8 Examples: Skin, outer layer of organs, lining of tubes, body cavities 9 Examples: brain, sensory receptors, nerves, and spinal cord 10 How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Controlled variable 11 Function: Covers the body surface and organs like a wall to keep the inside and outside separate. 12 Examples: Skeletal (biceps, triceps), cardiac (heart) muscle, and smooth (organ muscles) 13 How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Not a variable. 14 Examples: Ligament, Cartilage, bone, tendon, blood 15 Specialized group of similar cells that work together to perform a function 16 How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Independent variable 17 Structure: Long and slender like a wire so that electrical impulses can travel along it quickly Connective Tissue General Cell Shape/Structure Number of cells Nervous Tissue Structure Type of tissue Type of organism Nervous Tissue Function: Tissues definition Epithelial Tissue General Cell Shape/Structure Connective Tissue Function Epithelial tissue examples Nervous tissue examples Muscle tissue examples Muscle Tissue General Cell Shape/Structure Microscope used to identify the number of cells Example of Connective Tissue Epithelial Tissue Function Muscle Tissue Function
