Tissue IS

You are going to begin a study of the four major groups of tissues. Through this sequence you will examine the nature of tissues, specialized cells that are the foundation of all organ function.

Do your best to work on your own; you will learn less if you copy from others. Don't cheat yourself.

This sheet will serve as a 'cover sheet' that will precede all the work in your binder that will not be in your lab book. As the work is completed I will check it off below. Some will have specific due dates, others will be due at the end of the unit

• Vocabulary- define the Skeletal Vocabulary terms, List A from the Class Web site. Do these words in your Lab Book. Due Date is:

• Text reading- From your book, Chapter 6, read pages 128-130 on bone structure; read pages 131-133 on bone growth; read pages 133-136 on bone remodeling;. As you read, outline the chapter or take notes on the material. Do each section as we cover it in class (don’t do remodeling while we are studying basic structure). Do each section on separate pages to be added to your binder (will follow this sheet). Show me each section for checking when completed. Due before each section exam
