2. Epithelial Tissue-Epithelial tissue covers the whole surface of the body. It is
made up of cells closely packed and ranged in one or more layers. This tissue is
specialized to form the covering or lining of all internal and external body
surfaces. (9)

3. Simple Squamous
Simple Squamous-Simple squamous epithelial cells are thin and flat (the thinnest of all
epithelial cell-types), which allows them to have a large surface area. As a simple type of
epithelium, simple squamous epithelium is one cell-layer thick, and thus every cell of the
tissue comes in direct contact with the basement membrane. (8)

4. Stratified Squamous
Stratified Squamous- Where body linings have to withstand wear and tear, the epithelia are
composed of several layers of cells and are then called compound or stratified epithelium.
The top cells are flat and scaly. (8)

5. Transitional Squamous
Simple Columnar-Goblet cells, which are unicellular glands, are found between the columnar
epithelial cells of the duodenum. They secrete mucus or slime, a lubricating substance which
keeps the surface smooth. They occur in one or more layers, also they are elongated or
column shaped. (8)

6. Stratified Columnar
Stratified Columnar –rare, column-shaped, secretion and protection, often found between
simple columnar epithelia and stratified squamous epithelia, found near salivary glands -
cell lining protects the salivary duct, goblet cells found between the cells, found in vas
deferens where it protects and aids in secretion of glands, intestinal lining - ciliated to help
move nutrients and increase absorption, also protects against pathogens/bacteria, also form
layers in ocular conjunctiva and the linings of the pharynx, anus, uterus, urethra. (8)

7. Pseudostratified

137)

staggered nuclei; may
have goblet cells and
cilia; little matrix

8. Simple Cuboidal

and centrally
located.

bronchioles; kidney
tubules; thyroid
and other glands

9. Stratified Cuboidal

Locations:
limited, but can be
found lining ovarian
follicles and the lining
of some ducts and
glands

ducts

cuboidal cells near
free surface; usually
two layers of cells

10. Connective Tissue (1) & (Page. 132)
Locations: multiple locations including beneath epithelium and
mesenteries

immune functions

11. Loose Ordinary
Fibrous (1) & (Page. 131)
Locations:
tendons; ligaments
Function: strong
support
Key Features: one
fiber type in
parallel
arrangement; thin
fibroblasts;
minimal ground
substance

12. Adipose (1) & (Page. 136-137)
• consists of
adipocytes, which store
fat droplets
• Locations: subcutaneous
region, bone marrow, and
mesenteries
• Functions: lipid storage;
thermoregulation;
protection

13. Reticular (1) & (Page. 136)
• consists of branching
fibers and fibroblasts
• Locations: stroma of
spleen, liver, lymph nodes
and thymus
• Function: support

14. Dense Regular Fibrous (1) & (Page. 137-140)
• consists of closely packed
parallel collagen fibers
and fibroblasts
interspersed between the
fibers
• Locations: tendons,
ligaments
• Function: strong support

15. Dense Irregular Fibrous (1) & (Page. 136 - 139)
• the collagen fibers do not
exhibit a consistent
pattern
• Locations: dermis;
sheaths around bones,
nerves and cartilages
• Function: strong support

16. Bone (1) & (Page. 137 - 140)
• dense calcified tissue
with no spaces visible to
the naked eye
• Locations: outer surface
and shaft of bone
• Function: support

17. Hyaline cartilage (1) & (Page. 141)
• contains chondrocytes in
lacunae and a matrix of fine
collagen fibers that are not
visible
• Locations: subcutaneous
region, bone marrow, and
mesenteries
• Functions: lipid storage;
thermoregulation;
protection

18. Fibrocartilage (1) & (Page. 141)
• consists of parallel fibers
of collagen fibers with
chondrocytes in lacunae
interspersed
• Locations: intervertebral
discs; pubic symphysis
• Function: firm support

19. Elastic Cartilage (1) & (Page. 140 - 141)
Contains few collagen
fibers but large numbers
of very fine elastic fibers
that give the matrix
material a high degree of
flexibility. Found in the
external ear, larynx, and in
the voice box.

20. Blood (1) & (Page. 141-143)
Exists in a liquid state and
contains neither ground
substance nor fibers. This
makes blood the most unusual
connective tissue. Blood is
divided into 3 classes:
erythrocytes (red blood
cells), leukocytes (white blood
cells), thrombocytes
(platelets). Blood maintains
body temperature, regulates
the pH of body
functions, movement of (1) & (Page. 142)
oxygen and carbon
dioxide, nutrients, and waste
products.

21. Muscle (1) & (Page. 143)
• There are three
different types of
muscle tissue: skeletal
muscle, smooth muscle,
and cardiac muscle.
Each type of muscle
type tells its location in
the body.

22. Skeletal Muscle (1) & (Page. 143-144)
The Skeletal Muscle is
often called striated
voluntary muscle.
Composes muscles
attached to bones; these
are organs that we think
of as our muscles. They
have a threadlike
appearance, many cross
striations, many nuclei per (1) & (Page. 144)
cell, and long, and narrow.

23. Smooth Muscle (1) & (Page. 143-144)
Also called nonstriated
involuntary. It is found in
the walls of the viscera ,
stomach, intestines, and
blood vessels. Long,
narrow fibers but not as
long as striated fibers.
They only have one
nucleus per fiber and are (1) & (Page. 144)
nonstriated or smooth
when they are looked at.

24. Cardiac Muscle (1) & (Page. 143-144)
Makes up the walls of the
heart. These muscles have
crossed striations and
unique dark bands. They
are incomplete cells that
branch into each other to
form a big continuous
mass od cytoplasm.

25. Nervous (1) & (Page. 145)
More developed excitability
and conductivity
characteristics than any
other type of tissue. The
actual nerve tissue is
ectodermal in origin and
consists of two basic kinds
of cells: nerve cells, or
neurons. These are the
conducting units of the
nervous system. (1) & (Page. 146)
