Epithelial Tissue |
Closely packed cells, continuous sheets, free and attatched surfaces, anchored and supported by connective tissue, no blood vessels, but nerve fibers, regenerative. |
|
|
Simple |
Single layer |
|
|
Microvilli |
Each of a large number of minute projections from the surface of some cells. |
|
|
Basement membrane |
Reinforces the spitheloum, resists stretching and testing. |

Multiple layers |
|
|
Squamous |
Thin at top, thicker newer cells. Plate-like. |
|
|

Cube shaped cells |
|
|
Columnar |

|
|
Gland |
One or more cells that makes and secretes a particular product |
|
|
Endocrine |
Ductless as gland that releases hormones |
|
|
Exocrine |
Screte products into body surfaces or cavities. Use ducts |
|
|
Connective Tissue |

|
|
Adipose |
Fat tissue. High nutrient storing abolity, insulates against heat lost, suports and protects. |
|
|
Cartilage |
Tough, flexible, withstands tension and compression |
|
|
Osseous Tissue |
Bone. More collagen fibers. Inorganic salt, blood vessels, encanae than cartilage. |
|
|
Muscle tissue |
Muscle tissue is a soft tissue that composes muscles in animal bodies, and gives rise to muscles' ability to contract. This is opposed to other components or tissues in muscle such as tendons or perimysium. [clarification needed] It is formed during embryonic development through a process known as myogenesis. |
|
|
Nervous tissue |
Nervous tissue is the main component of the two parts of the nervous system; the brain and spinal cord of the central nervous system (CNS), and the branching peripheral nerves of the peripheral nervous system (PNS), which regulates and controls bodily functions and activity. Uses electro shock. |
|
|
Regeneration |
In biology, regeneration is the process of renewal, restoration, and growth that makes genomes, cells, organisms, and ecosystems resilient to natural fluctuations or events that cause disturbance or damage. |
