Epithelial tissue...
- single layer tall cells, may contain cilia
- function in absorption and secretion
- Goblet cells (unicellular, exocrine) found in this layer
- ciliated: line small bronchi
- non-ciliated: line digestive tract, gallbladder

endoderm
What is the most widely distributed primary tissue, found throughout the body?
Give this one a try later!
Connective tissue
CT proper type...
- Reserves food, insulates against heat loss, supports, protects
- Found under skin, around kidneys, within abdomen, and in breasts
- Serves nutrient needs of highly active organs

Adipose
Epithelial membrane...
- lines body cavities THAT ARE OPEN TO THE EXTERIOR (e.g. digestive and
, respiratory tracts)

Mucous
Ductless glands that produce hormones (including amino acids, proteins,
glycoproteins, and steroids)
Give this one a try later!
Endocrine Glands
All glands (1+ cells secreting an aqueous fluid) are composed of what major tissue
type?

Epithelial tissue
CT type...
- Osteocytes are highly vascular
- Stores calcium, minerals and fat
- Red Marrow is site of hematopoiesis (red blood cell formation)
- calcified matrix + collagen fibers
