What is Overview of Human Tissue Types about?
Tissues are groups of cells that perform similar functions. The four main tissue types are epithelial, connective, muscle and nervous. Epithelial tissue covers surfaces and lines cavities. It is made of 1-3 layers of cells and transports substances across its surface. Simple epithelia are 1 cell thick while stratified have multiple layers. Epithelial tissues include squamous, cuboidal and columnar cells that allow specialized functions. Pseudostratified tissue appears layered but cells reach the basement.
