Animal Tissue:
In the bodies of animals, various organs work together to perform specific functions essential for survival. For example, the lungs and trachea, with the help of muscle contraction and relaxation, enable respiration. Each organ is made up of different types of tissues, and these tissues work together to ensure the organ functions efficiently. Tissues are groups of specialised cells with similar structure and function.
Types of Animal Tissues
- Epithelial tissue: covers and protects the surfaces of organs and the body. Examples: skin, lining of the respiratory tract.
- Connective tissue: provides support and connects different parts of the body. Examples: blood (transports oxygen, nutrients, and waste materials), bones, and cartilage.
- Muscular tissue: responsible for movement through contraction and relaxation. Examples: muscles that aid in breathing (like those supporting the lungs and trachea).
- Nervous tissue: enables communication between different parts of the body by transmitting signals. Examples: brain, spinal cord, and nerves.
