What are the 4 major types of tissues? - Answers✔epithelial, connective, muscle, nervous

How does epithelial tissue work? - Answers✔it protects and transports for example in the
respiratory tract it is lined with Cilia which trapts dust and dirt. Epethelial tissue also forms
glands and secretes a viriety of hormones and enzymes.

surfaces, unattached and one that is attached to the base membrane. it also has no blood cells
within it and recieved nutrients from below (avascular).

simple squamous epithelium - Answers✔Function: Allows passage of materials by diffusion and
filtration in sites where protection is not important; secretes lubricating substances in serosae.
FISH LIKE CELLS


Location: Kidney glomeruli, air sacs of lungs, lining of heart, blood vessels, and lymphatic
vessels; lining of ventral body cavity(serosae)

simple cuboidal epithelium - Answers✔Function: secretion and absorption
CUBE LIKE


Location: Kidney tubules; ducts and secretory portions of small glands, ovary surface.

simple columnar epithelium - Answers✔Function: Absorption; secretion of mucus, enzymes, and

transitional epithelium - Answers✔found in mostly orans becuase this tissue is good at
stretching. when not stretched looks stratified and when stretched (full bladder) looks simple
(single layer)

glandular epithelium - Answers✔Composed of cells that are specialized to produce and secrete
substances. these cells are related to the exocrine system. this type of tissue is made up of simple
cuboidal epethelium tissue.
