What tissue is avascular aka lacks its own blood supply
Epithelial
Single or multiple layered sheet of cells. Makes the covering and lining of the body. Protection secretion and avsorption
Epithelial tissues
The type of simple squamous that lines the heart, blood vessels, and lymphatic vessels
Endothelium
The type of epithelial layer of serous membranes such as pericardium, pluera, and peritoneum
Mesothelium
This epithelial tissue derives from the embryonic mesoderm
Endothelium
Mesothelium
Simple squamous
Allows passage of materials by diffusion and filtration. Found in the lining of hear. Air sacs in lungs. Blood vessels and lymphatic system
Simple squamous
Epithelial tissues found in thyroid gland and kidney tubules
Simple cuboidal
Epithelial tissues that line digestive tract. Gallbladder. Protects stomach lining from acids. Function is secreting mucus.
Non ciliated columnar epithelium
Goblet cells are found and for what purpose
Simple columnar
Produces mucous for lubrication
Epithelial tissues found in
Respiratory system and uterine tubes.
Ciliated simple columnar
Epithelial tissue found in respiratory system, trachea, male urethra and epididymis . Nuclei seen at different levels.
Ciliated pseudo stratified columnar
Keratinized tissue found in superficial layers of skin
Stratified squamous
