Connective Fibrous Loose Areolar

This slide shows loose (areolar) connective tissue which is used extensively throughout the body for fastening down the skin

membranes vessels and nerves as well as binding muscles and other tissues together The tissue consist of an extensive network of

fibers secreted by cells called fibroblasts The most numerous of these fibers are the thicker lightly-staining collagenous fibers

Thinner dark-staining elastic fibers composed of the protein elastin can also be seen

Reticular

Reticular connective tissue is named for the reticular fibers which are the main structural part of the tissue The cells that make the reticular fibers are fibroblasts called reticular cells Reticular

connective tissue forms a scaffolding for other cells in several organs such as lymph nodes and bone marrow You will never see

reticular connective tissue alone--there will always be other cells scattered among the reticular cells and reticular fibers

Dense Regular

Dense connective tissue is characterized by an abundance of fibres with fewer cells as compared to the loose connective tissue It is

also called fibrous or collagenous connective tissue because of the abundance of collagen (collagenous) fibres Little intercellular substance is present Furthermore in this tissue type the fibres

are organized in a regular parallel pattern (Figure 12) Hence the name ndash dense regular (fibrous or collagenous) connective tissue

Neutrophil

Neutrophils are a type of granulocytic white blood cell They are distinguished by their lobed nucleus and the presence of fine purple granules in their cytoplasm (under HampE or other Romanovsky stains)

Neutrophils are phagocytotic cells capable of ingesting and killing bacteria and other pathogens They are the most numerous white blood cells with 20 - 75 x 10^9 neutrophils L blood of a healthy

individual

Muscle Skeletal

Skeletal muscles form the flesh sometimes referred to as the red meat of an animals body They are attached to and result in the movement of the bones of the skeleton A typical skeletal muscle

cell is a highly modified giant multi-nucleate cell (fibre) Each fibre is cylindrical in shape with blunt rounded ends The flattened nuclei are located mainly at the periphery of the cell just inside the sarcolemma The cross-striped (or striated) appearance of light and dark banding results from the arrangement of myofibrils small

protein contractile units embedded in the sarcoplasm

Smooth

Smooth muscle is abundant throughout the internal organs of the body especially in regions such as the digestive tract As its

contraction is not under conscious nervous control it is referred to as involuntary muscle Smooth muscle fibres are spindle-shaped

structures with a prominent centrally located nucleus In comparison with skeletal muscle fibres they are much shorter in

length and they do not exhibit striations The cells occur as individual fibres within organs or as groups of fibres closely

interlaced in sheets or bands

Cardiac

Cardiac muscle is a highly specialized tissue restricted to the wall of the heart It is also an involuntary type of muscle as its

contraction is not consciously controlled Unlike smooth or striated fibres cardiac fibres tend to form long chains of cells which branch and intertwine This arrangement results in the peculiar wringing

action of the heart The junction of one cell with another in a particular chain is known as an intercalated disc and appears as a heavy dark line running across the fibre Each cell has a somewhat cylindrical shape with one centrally-located oval nucleus Cross-striations are apparent but they are not as regular nor as prominent

as those of skeletal muscle

2 types Satellite

Glial cells commonly called neuroglia or simply glia are one of two major classes of cells in neural tissues the other being neurons for

which the glial cells provide support Glial cells surround neurons hold them in place provide nutrition (nutrients and oxygen) help

maintain homeostasis provide electrical insulation destroy pathogens regulate neuronal repair and the removal dead neurons

and participate in signal transmission in the nervous system
