Tissue
There are 4 basic types of tissue, these are-
1. Epithelial tissue
2. Connective tissue
3. Muscle tissue, and
4. Nervous tissue
Function of Epithelium Tissue
The major function of epithelial tissue or epithelium tissue is-
1. Cover’s body surfaces
2. Lines hollow organs, body activities, and ducts
3. Forms ducts
and certain glands
4. Protection
5. Secretion,
and
6. Absorption
Check out here types of
membranous epithelial tissue
and types
of glandular epithelium tissue.
Function of Connective Tissue
The major function of connective tissue-
1. Binding of organ, example cartilage and bone
2. Physical protection, barrier to entry microorganism,
dermis of skin
3. Storage, adipose tissue, major site of stored energy
reserve
4. Insulating
5. Transport, blood major transport system
6. Compartmentalize structure, example; skeletal muscle
7. Supporting of organ
8. Defence and immune protection, immunity and wound repair,
macrophages, lymphocytes, fibroblasts by mediating inflammation
9. Enclosing and separating organ
10. Highly vascular
Know here types of
connective tissue.
Function of Muscular Tissue
The major function of muscular tissue are-
1. Ability to contract
2. Generate heat
3. Muscle movement
4. Provide Support
5. Help in contraction and relaxation
6. Provide Protection
7. Provide stability and durability
8. Maintenance of posture
9. Helps in respiration
10. Generate force
11. Elastic ability
12. Communication verbal and facial
13. Joint stabilization
14. Support to bone

muscle tissue?
Function of Nervous Tissue
The major functions of nervous tissue-
1. Muscle movement
2. Coordination nerve, spinal cord, brain
3. Mental activity
4. Control and integrate all body activity
5. Homeostasis
6. Motor function
7. Respond
8. Sensory receptors
9. Support and protect impulse, generating neuron
10. Generate and transmit nerve impulse
11. Regulates and control body function
