There are many different types of tissues that make up the body. This assignment will give you the ability to investigate histology slides and connect various tissue structures with functions and locations in the body.
Make a PowerPoint presentation entitled “Laboratory Guide to Human Tissues,” using the provided list of tissues and images.
Use “Human Tissue Images” to identify the image of each of the listed tissues, ensuring that each image is labeled with its correct tissue name and tissue type.
Transitional
Skeletal muscle
Dense regular
Stratified squamous
Simple cuboidal
Adipose
Fibrocartilage
Nervous
Hyaline cartilage
Smooth muscle
Simple columnar
Cardiac muscle
Stratified cuboidal
Simple squamous
Blood
Areolar
Elastic cartilage
Reticular
Bone
Stratified columnar
Elastic connective
Dense irregular
Pseudostratified columnar (Label the goblet cells and cilia in the image.)
Choose a different background color for each one of the four main tissue types (see example image) and classify the tissues above as being one of the following:
Epithelial tissue (ET)
Connective tissue (CT)
Muscle tissue (MT)
Nervous tissue (NT)
The four tissue classes will act as headings for the main sections of your PowerPoint presentation (the color of the slides needs to correspond to each tissue type).
Insert the provided tissue images, making sure each is labeled correctly including the location, description, and function of each tissue.
Refer to “Human Tissues Images” to complete the assignment.
APA style is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
