Histology - Function, Interaction, Method, and Components

Image
Histology (Greek histo - tissue + logos - research) is the science that studies the tissues of the body and how these tissues are located, forming organs. There are four main tissues known: e pithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscle tissue, and nerve tissue .  In Histology , Tissues are made up of cells and intercellular substance - two components that were previously considered independent of each other. The intercellular substance is formed by various types of molecules , some of them are highly organized and form complex structures such as collagen fibrils and basement membranes.   The main functions of Histology is   previously attributed to the extracellular substance included providing mechanical support for cells , transporting nutrients to cells , and removing catabolic products and secretory substances . It has now been established that, in addition to these functions, the components of the intercellular substance affect the cells that produce them....

Histology or Hystology - Basics of Histology: Histology Meaning and Types

Image
According to Wikipedia - Histology is a branch of biology that studies the structure, vital activity, and development of tissues of living organisms. This is usually done by dissecting the tissue into thin layers and using a microtome. Unlike anatomy,  histology studies the structure of the body at the tissue level. or Histology is the science of the structure, development, and life of the tissues of animal organisms. Tissues are part of organs and are composed of cells and non-cellular structures. Therefore,  histology  includes cytology (the study of the cell), general  histology (the study of tissues), and private  histology (the study of the microscopic structure of organs). or Histology (Greek histo - tissue + logos - research) is the science that studies the tissues of the body and how these tissues are located, forming organs.
