1. Epithelial Tissue that covers the inside or outside of the body.
Lines exposed surfaces
Found: Skin (keratinized), esophagus, intestine lining
2. Connective Tis- Tissue that fills spaces, stores/transports, provides structure, binds things togeth-
sue er.
Found: cartilage, ligament, bones, blood adipose, tendons, joint capsules
3. Muscle Tissue Contracts or Shortens with force and is responsible for movement.
3 Types:
Skeletal Muscle: voluntary/striated
Cardiac Muscle: involuntary / striated w/intercalated discs
Smooth Muscle: involuntary/ no striation
4. Neural Tissue Conduct electrical signals called action potentials
5. Simple Single layer of cells
6. Stratified Two or more layers of cells
7. Pseudostratified columnar epithelium, varies in height with nuclei at different levels above basal
Epithelium membrane
8. Squamous Scale-like
9. Cuboidal Cube-like
10. Columnar Column-shaped
11. Transitional Ep- Peculiar stratified squamous epithelium formed of rounded cells with the ability to
ithelium slide over one another to allow the organ to be stretched.
