1 Epithelial Tissues

2 Shapes of Cells Columnar Cuboidal Squamous

3 Simple Squamous Location -Alveoli of Lungs
- Lining of Blood and Lymph Vessels Function -Absorbs O2 and CO2 in the lungs (Gas Exchange)

4 Stratified Squamous Location - Surface of mouth and esophagus
- Surface of Skin Function - Protection

5 Simple Columnar Location
- Surface lining of stomach, intestines, and respiratory tract Function - Protection, Secretion (mucus), Absorption

6 Stratified Transitional
Location - Urinary Bladder Function - Protection, Stretches

7 Pseudostratified Location - Surface Lining of trachea Function
- Protection - cilia move mucus along trachea

8 Simple Cuboidal Location - Glands, Kidney Tubules Function
- Secretion (saliva, digestive juices, sweat) absorption

9 Connective Tissues

10 Areolar Location - Between other tissues and organs Function
- Connection (Glue) Most widely distributed connective tissue

11 Adipose Location - Under skin - Padding for various points Function
- Protection, insulation, support, nutrient reserve

12 Dense Fibrous Location - Tendons, ligaments Function
- Flexible but strong connection, does not stretch

13 Bone Location - Skeleton Function - Support, protection
Osteon (building block)

14 Cartilage Location - Nasal septum, ends of bones, larynx Function
-Firm but flexible support

15 Blood Location - Blood vessels Function - Transportation

16 Hemopoietic Location - Red bone marrow - spleen Function
- Blood cell formation

17 Muscle Tissue

18 Skeletal Muscle Location
- Muscles that attach to bones, eyeball muscles Function - Voluntary movement

19 Cardiac Muscle Location - Wall of heart Function
- Contraction of heart

20 Smooth Muscle Location
- Digestive and respiratory tracts, intrinsic eye muscles, arrector muscles of hairs Function - Involuntary muscle contraction

21 Nervous Tissue

22 Neural Location - Brain, spinal cord, nerves Function
- Irritability, conduction
