Structure: Cells that are tightly packed and have a definite top and bottom that is very strong.
Specialized group of similar cells that work together to perform a function
Function: A body tissue that contracts or shortens, making body parts move.
Examples: brain, sensory receptors, nerves, and spinal cord
Examples: Ligament, Cartilage, bone, tendon, blood
Examples: Skin, outer layer of organs, lining of tubes, body cavities
Examples: Skeletal (biceps, triceps), cardiac (heart) muscle, and smooth (organ muscles)
Function: Type of tissue that transmits nerve impulses (information) throughout the body
Structure: Long and slender like a wire so that electrical impulses can travel along it quickly

Structure: Contains long & narrow cells that allow them to pull like a rubber band.
Function: A body tissue that provides support for the body and connects all of its parts
Structure: Cells with jelly like material and with spindly fibers
