Human Biology Laboratory 4: Body Tissues and Organization List The 4 Tissue Types and Give A General Function: Pg. 40
This document provides an overview of a human biology laboratory on body tissues and organization. It lists the four main tissue types and their general functions. It also defines different tissue types such as epithelial, connective, muscular and nervous tissue. The document outlines the key structures and functions of different body tissues that students will learn to identify under the microscope during the laboratory. It discusses anatomical terminology like anatomical position and directional terms. It also covers the major body cavities and regions as well as the three layers of skin and their components. The goal is for students to understand human tissues and anatomy.

Laboratory 4: Body Tissues and Organization
List the 4 tissue types and give a general function: pg. 40
1. epithelial tissue-
2. connective tissue
3.muscular tissue
4. nervous tissue
Define the following:
Simple: one layer
Stratified: more than one
Squamous: flat, thin, scaly
Cuboidal: cube
Columnar: long column
Pseudostratified: false layers, looks like a lot but really are not
Body Tissues (pg. 41-50) - Start to identify and recognize the different tissues found in the human body. - Sketch what you see in your microscope field of view in the spaces below.
Define the following Directional Terms (Table 4.1, pg. 51 and Figure 4.17, pg. 52):
Superior: Above
Inferior: Below
Anterior (Ventral): front
Hyaline cartilage
Posterior (Dorsal): back
Medial: close to mid line
Lateral: far from mid line
Proximal: close to
Distal: far from
Superficial: close to surface
Deep: far from
Planes of the Body (pg. 53):
Frontal Plane: front and back
Sagittal Plane: left and right
Transverse Plane: top and bottom
Body Cavities- please list the organs found in the following cavities (pg. 53)
Dorsal Body Cavities
Cranial: brain
Vertebral: spine
Ventral Body Cavities
Thoracic: lungs, rib cage
Abdominal: digestive organs
Pelvic: reproductive organs, bladder
What organ separates the thoracic and abdominal cavity?
Know the following Regions of the Body (Figure 4.22, pg. 54) Facial- face Nasal- nose Oral- mouth Cervical- neck Pectoral- chest Scapular- shoulder blades Vertebral- middle of the back Sternal- middle of the chest Lumbar- lower back Gluteal- booty meat Axillary- arm pit Brachial- arm Antebrachial- forearm Carpal- hand Digital (2)- finger Abdominal- tummy area Umbilical- belly buttom Coxal- hip Pubic- #pubess Femoral- thigh Patellar- knee Tarsal- ankle Pedal- foot List the 3 layers of skin from superficial to deep (pg. 57). 1.epidermis
2.dermis
3.hypodermis
Look at the skin model. Be comfortable identifying structures and know the functions (pg. 57).
Epidermis- upper most layer of the skin
Dermis- middle layer of the skin
Hypodermis- lower most layer of the skin
Hair follicle- small cavity that holds hair root
Hair root- part of hair that is in the hair follicle
Hair shaft- part of hair that is out side the skin
Arrector pili muscle- involuntary reactions, goose nips
Oil gland-
Sweat gland- thermo regulation, controls body tempature
