Introduction: A. Cells are arranged in tissues that
provide specific functions for the body. B. Cells of different tissues are structured
differently, which leads to their differences in function.
C. The tissues of the human body include four major types: epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous.

Epithelial Tissues: A. General Characteristics
1. Epithelial tissue is widespread throughout the body, covers organs, and lines body surfaces.
2. Epithelial tissues are anchored to a basement membrane, are made up of tightly packed cells containing little intercellular material, generally lack blood vessels, and are replaced frequently.

3. Epithelial tissues function in protection, secretion, absorption, excretion, and sensory reception.

B. Simple Squamous Epithelium 1. Simple squamous epithelium is made
up of a single layer of thin, flattened cells.
2. Because it is suited for diffusion, it functions in the exchange of gases in the lungs and lines blood and lymph vessels as well as body cavities.

C. Simple Cuboidal Epithelium 1. Simple cuboidal epithelium
consists of a single layer of cube-shaped cells with centrally
located nuclei. 2. It functions in secretion and
absorption in the kidneys, and in secretion in glands.

D. Simple Columnar Epithelium 1. Simple columnar epithelium is
made up of a row of elongated cells whose nuclei are all located near the basement membrane. It may be ciliated.
2. It lines the uterus, stomach, and intestines where it protects underlying tissues, secretes digestive fluids, and absorbs nutrients.

3. In the intestine, these cells possess microvilli that increase the surface area available for absorption.
4. Mucus-secreting goblet cells can be found among columnar cells.

E. Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium 1. These cells appear layered due to the
varying positions of their nuclei within the row of cells, but are not truly layered.
2. Cilia may be present, along with mucus-secreting globlet cells, that line and sweep debris from respiratory tubes.

F. Stratified Squamous Epithelium 1. This type of tissue is made up of
layers of flattened cells that are designed to protect underlying layers. 2. It makes up the outer layer of skin,
and lines the mouth, throat, vagina, and anal canal.

3. In the skin, outer layers of cells undergo keratinization; however, this process does not occur where tissues remain moist in the throat, vagina, or anal canal.

G. Stratified Cuboidal Epithelium 1. This tissue consists of two to three
layers of cuboidal cells lining a lumen of the mammary glands, sweat glands, salivary glands, and pancreas.
2. Several layers of cells provide greater protection than one single layer.

of cells and is found in the ductus deferens, part of the male urethra, and parts of the pharynx.

I. Transitional Epithelium 1. Transitional epithelium is designed
to distend and return to its normal size, as it does in the lining of the urinary bladder.
2. This design provides distensibility and keeps urine from diffusing back into
the internal cavity.
