Term
| function of epithelial tissue |
|
Definition
| keeps body from losing moisture and drying out, protects against injury to internal structure, helps prevent against bacterial infection |
|
|
Term

|
|
Term
| Describe the arrangement of muscle cells in tissye |
|
Definition
| Muscle cells, or fibers are grouped into fascicles, by connective tissue called perimysium. The fascicles are bound by epimysium into a muscle. So, muscle tissue is connective tissue plus muscle cells. |

Term
| Function of nervous tissue |
|
Definition
-convey nerve impulses
-coordinate activities and movements of the body through a network of nerves |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| . A nerve fiber ( which is actually an axon or dendrite) is gathered together with other nerve fibers into a fascicle. The fascicle is surrounded by perineurium, and several fascicles are gathered into a nerve, surrounded by epineurium.epineurium |
