tissue
a group of similar cells and cell products working
together to perform a specific role in an organ
Epithelial tissue
sheet of closely adhering cells, one or
more cells thick, with upper surface exposed to environment
or internal space
• Covers body surfaces and lines body cavities
• Constitutes most glands
• Avascular (does not have blood vessels)
Functions of epithelial tissue
Protection—protect deeper tissues from injury and
infection
• Secretion—produce and release mucus, sweat, enzymes,
hormones, and other substances
• Excretion—void wastes from the tissues
• Absorption—absorb chemicals, such as nutrients
• Filtration—all substances leaving the body are selectively
filtered by an epithelium
• Sensation—nerve endings in epithelia detect stimuli
General structure of epithelia:
Cells close together, small amount of extracellular material
• Avascular—no blood vessels, nourished by underlying
connective tissue
• High rate of mitosis in cells near connective tissue
• Rest on a basement membrane—layer between an
epithelium and underlying connective tissue
• Collagen, glycoproteins, other protein–carbohydrate complexes
• Anchors the epithelium to the connective tissue below it
Surfaces of epithelial cells:
Basal surface—surface facing the basement membrane
• Apical surface—surface that faces away from the basement
membrane
• Lateral surface—surface between the basal and apical surface,
the “sidewall”
Simple Squamous Epithelium

Single row of thin cells
• Permits rapid diffusion or transport of substances
• Secretes serous fluid
• Locations: alveoli, glomeruli, endothelium, and serosa
Simple Cuboidal Epithelium

Single layer of square or round cells
• Absorption and secretion, mucus production and movement
• Locations: liver, thyroid, mammary and salivary
glands, bronchioles, and kidney tubules
Simple Columnar Epithelium

Single row of tall, narrow cells
• Oval nuclei in basal half of cell
• Brush border of microvilli, sometimes ciliated, may possess goblet cells
• Absorption and secretion; secretion of mucus
• Locations: lining of GI tract, uterus, kidney, and uterine tubes
Ciliated Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium


Looks multilayered, but all cells touch basement membrane
• Nuclei at several layers
• Has cilia and goblet cells
• Secretes and propels mucus
• Locations: respiratory tract and portions of male urethra
Nonkeratinized Stratified Squamous Epithelium

Same as keratinized epithelium without surface layer of
dead cells
• Resists abrasion and penetration of pathogens
• Locations: tongue, oral mucosa, esophagus, and vagina
Keratinized Stratified Squamous Epithelium

Multiple cell layers; cells become flat and scaly toward surface
• Resists abrasion; retards water loss through skin; resists
penetration by pathogenic organisms
• Locations: epidermis; palms and soles heavily keratinized
Stratified cuboidal epithelium

Urothelium

Connective tissue
most abundant, widely distributed, and
variable type of tissue in which cells occupy less space than
matrix
Functions of connective tissues
Binding of organs—connect one bone to another,
muscles, to bones, skin to muscle, and hold organs in
place
• Support—support the body and its organs, form internal
framework of organs
• Physical protection—protect, cushion delicate organs
• Immune protection—connective tissue cells attack
foreign invaders
