Protects the organs and the body from the environment Contains long straight lines (striated) and long & narrow cells that allow them to pull like a rubber band. independent (manipulated) variable Cartilage, tendon, bone, tendon, blood Long and slender like a tree so that electrical impulses can travel along it quickly Type of tissue that transmits nerve impulses throughout the body dependent (responding) variable Specialized group of similar cells that work together to perform a function The function of every cell is determined by this.... A body tissue that provides support for the body and connects all of its parts Cells floating in gel with spindly fibers that hold together the body parts Skin, outer layer of organs, body cavities 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.
