What are Some Examples of Patterning in Different Tissues?
Patterning can be observed in various tissue types:
Epithelial tissue: Shows distinct layers and cellular arrangements, such as in the skin or lining of the gastrointestinal tract. Muscle tissue: Displays striations in skeletal muscle and intercalated discs in cardiac muscle. Nervous tissue: Exhibits complex networks of neurons and glial cells. Connective tissue: Features varying arrangements of fibers and cells, such as in bone, cartilage, and blood.
