4 major categories of epithelial, connective, muscle, nervous
tissues

Tissue that covers outside of the body and lines
epithelial tissue organs and cavities. Classified by the number of cell
layers and the shape of the cells.

Single layer of flattened cells that has a large
simple squamous surface area that aids in diffusion. These cells are
epithelium important components of kidneys and lungs where
filtration and diffusion are essential.

A single layer of cells that is the same heighth and
simple cuboidal
width. These cells secrete and absorb materials in
epithelium
glands and kidney tubules.

A single layer of cells which are taller than they are
wide. The cells line the digestive tract and aid in the
simple columnar secretion and absorption of materials. Ciliated cells
epithelium located in the upper respiratory tract, fallopian
tubes, and other passages help to move materials
through an internal passageway.

goblet cells Secrete a protective lubricating mucus

Several layers of flattened cells that serve an
important role in the protection of the body. The
stratified squamous
cells are found in areas where heavy abrasion
occurs.

, These cells are found in limited areas of the human
Stratified cuboidal or body including the sweat glands, mammary glands
stratified columnar (stratified cuboidal), the male urethra, and the
pharynx (stratified columnar)

Single layer of Columnar cells that all rest on the
basement membrane, but which have cell nuclei at
different levels, which gives the appearance of
psuedostratified numerous cell layers. Pseudostratified columnar
columnar cells secrete or absorb substances and can be
found in the respiratory tract were ciliated tissue
propels dust that is trapped by mucus secreting
goblet cells away from the lungs.

Basal cells of transitional epithelia are cuboidal or
columnar, however their appearance changes
because they make up the lining of hollow urinary
transitional epithelium
organs that stretch when filled with urine. As the
organs fill, the cells stretch and become flattened
and squamous in appearance
