A region of epithelium consisting of columnar or cuboidal cells bearing hairlike appendages (cilia) that are capable of beating rapidly. Ciliated epithelium performs the function of moving particles or fluid over the epithelial surface in such structures as the trachea, bronchial tubes, and nasal cavities. It often occurs in the vicinity of…[Read more]

The spinal cord is the the major column of nerve tissue that is connected to the brain and lies within the vertebral canal and from which the spinal nerves emerge. Thirty-one pairs of spinal nerves originate in the spinal cord: 8 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 sacral, and 1 coccygeal. The spinal cord and the brain constitute the central…[Read more]

Sweat glands, also known as sudoriferous are small tubular structures of the skin that produce sweat. Sweat glands are a type of exocrine gland, which are glands that produce and secrete substances onto an epithelial surface by way of a duct. There are two main types of sweat glands that differ in their structure, function, secretory product…[Read more]

The luminal cells of the duct contains desmosomes for secretion The secretory cells/coil can be divided into: -a coiled segment -a long and straight segment that extends up to the epidermis -an intraepidermal segment, which joins up with a cork-screw shaped cleft between epithelial cells, opening via a circular aperture Myoepit…[Read more]

In the cerebellum, the gray matter consists of an inner granular layer, Purkinje cell layer, and outer molecular layer.The cerebellum is an integral structure in transmitting sensory signals to the motor portion of the brain. It contributes to motor function by controlling muscle coordination, equilibrium and posture.

This is a Nervous tissue. It is a specialized tissue found in the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. It consists of neurons and supporting cells called neuroglia. Its primary function is to receive stimuli and send the impulse to the spinal cord and brain.

Intercalated disc – supports the synchronized contraction of cardiac tissues. It bonds muscle cells together and transmits signals between cells. Branching – where the cardiac Muscle separates into different segment Striations – are highly organized tissues that create force and contraction as support for the pumping of blood into the body Nucleus…[Read more]

Bone (osseous) tissue is the structural and supportive connective tissue of the body that forms the rigid part of the bones that make up the skeleton. Overall, the bones of the body are an organ made up of bone tissue, bone marrow, blood vessels, epithelium, and nerves.Bone exerts important functions in the body, such as locomotion, support and…[Read more]

Simple cuboidal Single layer of cuboidal (cube-like) cells with a sperical nuclei. The cells are directly attached to the basement membrane. These cells are found in organs specialized for diffusion and secretion.

Cardiac muscle tissue is only found in the heart, where it performs coordinated contractions that allow your heart to pump blood through your circulatory system.

Striated muscle tissue or skeletal muscle tissue – attached directly to the bone, they are responsible for the voluntary movements of the body

 Striated Muscle Tissue is a muscle tissue that features repeating functional units called sarcomeres. The sarcomeres are visible as straitions along the muscle fibers. And this is an example of a skeletal muscle which is a type of striated muscle. It is attached to the bones and under voluntary control that functions for movement.
