infundibulum- any of various funnel-shaped parts of the body (but especially the hypophyseal stalk) interstice- a small structural space between tissues or parts of an organ; "the interstices of a network" landmark- an anatomical structure used as a point of origin in locating other anatomical...
The human body is the physical substance of the human organism. Characteristic of the vertebrate form, the human body has an internal skeleton with a backbone, and, as with the mammalian form, it has hair and mammary glands. Learn more about the composit
Overview of the main cellular components and tissues. Surface epithelium 1/4 Synonyms:Epithelium A tissue is a group ofcells, in close proximity, organized to perform one or more specific functions.

Cells are membrane bound compartments that contain the machinery necessary to carry out metabolic reactions and other functions necessary for life. Human Body Tissues Cells and their products work together to form tissues. There are four main types of tissues in the human body: Nervous Connective ...
Enamel is the hardest and most resilient tissue in the human body. Enamel includes morphologically aligned, parallel, ∼50 nm wide, microns-long nanocrystals, bundled either into 5-μm-wide rods or their space-filling interrod. The orientation of en
although there is a highly unusual and extensive unlined interface between the matrix proteins of the bundles and the surrounding fluid. We observed similar structures in numerous tissues that are subject to intermittent or rhythmic compression, including the submucosae of the entire gastrointestinal trac...

Healthy Connective Tissue is our birth right. Without it life is miserable. All the cells, organs, and tissues in the body are enveloped, fed, and irrigated by it. They get all of their fluids, energy, and sustenance from it. Connective tissue is both a fluid and a fiber, somewhat like...
While it is important to study cells and understand their roles, sometimes we need to look at the bigger picture. The structure of the human body can be viewed in several levels, each slightly more zoomed out than the last. They include: cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organism. Le...
