SIMPLE EPITHELIUM
Four types of tissues: 1. EPITHELIUM TISSUE - More cells, small amount of extracellular substance - Lining the surface of the body, lumen of body cavities and can be found in glands (secretion) 2. MUSCLE TISSUE 3. CONNECTIVE TISSUE 4. NERVOUS TISSUE
Types of epithelium: Lining epithelium Glandular epithelium - simple - pseudostratified - transitional - stratified Glandular epithelium Neuroepithelium
