    The document describes different types of epithelial tissues and muscle tissues. For epithelial tissues, it lists three main cell shapes - squamous, cuboidal, and columnar - along with their descriptions and locations. For muscle tissues, it lists three main types - smooth, skeletal, and cardiac - and compares their key characteristics like striations, nuclei arrangement, control, and location. It also defines cell modification as specializations or modifications acquired by cells after division to aid different beneficial functions.

    Different Types of Epithelial Tissues

    Cell shape Description Location


    squamous flat, irregular round shape simple: lung alveoli, capillaries stratified: skin, mouth, vagina
    cuboidal cube shaped, central nucleus glands, renal tubules
    columnar tall, narrow, nucleus toward base tall, narrow, nucleus simple: digestive tract pseudostratified: respiratory tract
    along cell
    transitional round, simple but appear stratified urinary bladder

    Types of Muscles
    Type of Muscle Striations Nuclei Control Location
    smooth no single, in center involuntary visceral organs
    skeletal yes many, at periphery voluntary skeletal muscles
    cardiac yes single, in center involuntary heart

    CELL MODIFICATION- are specialized or modification reacquired by the cell after cell division that helps
    the cell in different beneficial ways.
