Chapter 7Structural Organisation in Animals

Four basic tissues: Epithelial, Connective, Muscular, Neural.

1. Animal Tissues

TissueTypesFunction
Epithelialsquamous, cuboidal, columnar, ciliated, compoundcovering, secretion
Connectiveloose, dense, cartilage, bone, bloodsupport, link, transport
Muscularskeletal (striated), smooth, cardiacmovement
Neuralneurons, neurogliacontrol, coordination

2. Cell Junctions

  • Tight: stop leakage.
  • Adhering: hold cells together.
  • Gap: let ions/molecules pass between cells.

3. Frog (Rana tigrina)

  • Cold-blooded; aestivation and hibernation.
  • Respiration through skin (water), lungs (land), buccal cavity.
  • 3-chambered heart; hepatic and renal portal systems.
  • Ureotelic; external fertilisation; tadpole metamorphosis.

4. Key Points

  • Glands: exocrine (ducts) and endocrine (ductless).
  • Cartilage cells: chondrocytes.
  • Bone cells: osteocytes in lacunae.
  • Mast cells secrete histamine.
