Animal Tissues Class9 Illustrated

Animal tissues are classified into four main types: epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous tissues, each performing specific functions. Epithelial tissue covers surfaces and aids in protection and absorption, connective tissue supports and binds body parts, muscular tissue enables movement, and nervous tissue controls and coordinates activities. The document provides an overview of the characteristics and functions of each tissue type.

Animal Tissues

Class 9 Biology
Introduction
l tissues are groups of cells performing specific functions.
provide structure, support, and perform vital activities.
l tissues are classified into four main types:
helial Tissue
nective Tissue
scular Tissue
vous Tissue
Epithelial Tissue
ers body surfaces and lines internal organs.
ctions: Protection, absorption, secretion, and excretion.
es:
uamous: Thin, flat cells (skin, alveoli).
boidal: Cube-shaped cells (glands).
umnar: Tall cells (intestine).
ated: Hair-like projections (respiratory tract).
Connective Tissue
Connects, supports, and binds different body parts.
Functions: Transport, flexibility, strength, storage.
Types:
- Bone: Provides shape and support.
- Cartilage: Flexible support (nose, ear).
- Ligaments & Tendons: Enable joint movement.
- Blood: Transports gases, nutrients, hormones.
- Adipose: Stores fat and energy.
Muscular Tissue
nt of the body and its parts.

ary): Skeletal muscles.


oluntary): Internal organs.
in the heart, involuntary.
drical, cardiac muscles are branched, unstriated muscles are spindle-shaped.
Nervous Tissue
ntrols and coordinates body activities.
ade up of neurons, the structural and functional units.
nctions:
eceive stimuli from surroundings.
ransmit impulses between body parts.
neuron consists of dendrites, cell body, and axon.
Summary of Animal Tissues
ial Tissue: Protection, secretion, absorption (skin, glands).
ctive Tissue: Support, transport, binding (bones, blood).
lar Tissue: Movement (skeletal, cardiac, smooth).
us Tissue: Coordination and control (brain, spinal cord).
