Summary

This guide covers cell biology, tissue structure and organ systems. Students learn about microscopic anatomy and its clinical significance.

Course Goals and Objectives

Histology introduces basic science terms. It covers cell biology, tissue microstructure and function, and organ systems. Students learn to relate this knowledge to gene function and protein synthesis.

Syllabus and Lectures

The syllabus is available online and in print. Lectures last 45-50 minutes. Students should check Blackboard daily for updates.

Tissue Types and Structures

The document describes glands, connective tissue, cartilage, adipose tissue, bone and bone formation. It explains the structure, function and location of these tissues in the human body.

Organ Systems

It covers the histology of the tongue, taste buds, tooth, olfactory epithelium and eye. It explains the structure, function and development of these components.

Key terms

Microscopy
The use of microscopes to view small structures.
Extracellular matrix
The non-cellular component present within all tissues and organs.
Epithelium
Tissue that covers the surfaces of structures.
Glands
Organs that synthesize substances like hormones and enzymes.
Connective tissue
Tissue that supports, connects or separates different types of tissues and organs.
Histology
The study of the microscopic structure of tissues.
