1. Tissues a group of cells that perform a function
2. Characteristics of continous sheets/layers, lines cavities or covers organs, closely packed together,
Epithelial Tissue have a nerve supply, avascular, have an apical and basal surface, have a high
capacity for renewal, go through mitosis rapidly
3. Functions of Ep- protection, filtration, absorption, digestion, secretion, lubrication, transportation,
ithelial tissue reproduction, sensory reception, excretion
4. Three kinds of SImple, stratified, pseudostratified
layers of the ep-
ithelial tissue

17. Two Type of Glan- Endocrine and Exocrine glands
dular Epithelium
18. Exocrine Glands secrete their product onto body surfaces or into body cavities, ex. mucous, sweat,
oil, salivary glands, liver, pancreas
