The function of every cell is determined by this.... brain and spinal cord Cells that are tightly packed and have a definite top and bottom. The top faces the inside of the body cavity. The arrangement and shape of the cells helps protect the items found within the epithilial tissue. A body tissue that contracts or shortens, making body parts move. Long and slender like a tree so that electrical impulses can travel along it quickly Skin, outer layer of organs, body cavities independent (manipulated) variable Type of tissue that transmits nerve impulses throughout the body Cartilage, tendon, bone, tendon, blood controlled variable Cells floating in gel with spindly fibers that hold together the body parts Covers the body surface and body cavities. Protects the organs and the body from the environment Tissue that connect bone (biceps, triceps), cardiac (heart) muscle, and smooth (organ muscles)
