4 Different Types of Human Tissue

1. Epithelial - it has layer of cells that

Tissue looks like a sheet.
- Epithelial tissues can be
found throughout the
body. They cover all body
surfaces, line body cavities
and hollow organs, and
make up the vast majority
of gland tissue.
- Squamous epithelial cells
are found inside blood
vessels, cuboidal epithelial
cells are found in ducts like
the kidney, and columnar
epithelial cells are found in
the lining of the small
intestine.
2. Connective - tissue that supports,
Tissue protects, and structures
the body's other tissues
and organs. It also helps in
storing fat, transport
nutrients as well as other
substances between
tissues and organs, and
repair damaged tissues.
One of its functions is to
transport substances
throughout the body.
- these are the example of
some types of connective
tissue is loose connective
tissue, which holds organs
in place. Under loose
connective tissue, there is
Areolar tissue, which can
be found in mucous
membranes, Reticular
tissue, which can be found
in lymphoid organs such as
tonsils, and Adipose tissue,
which can be found
beneath the skin. Dense
connective tissue, that
could be found in tendons
or ligaments, is the second
type of connective tissue.
3. Muscle Tissue - muscles are made up of
fibers of muscle cells that
are connected together in
sheets and fibers. Muscle
tissue is the only type of
tissue that has cells that
can contract, and it makes
up the majority of the
tissues in the muscles.
- there are 3 types of
muscle cells: cardiac
muscle tissue, also known
as myocardium, which is
only found in the wall of
the heart, skeletal muscle
tissue, which is a cylindrical
shaped cell attached to
bones by tendons, and
smooth muscle tissue,
which is found at the walls
of hollow organs such as
the intestines and
stomach.
4. Nervous - organ system that
Tissue controls body movements,
sends and receives signals
to and from various parts
of the body, and plays a
role in controlling body
parts It also raises
environmental
consciousness and
stimulates muscle
contraction.
- It also acts in major role
in emotions, reasoning of a
person and its memory.
- nervous tissues can be
found in the brain, spinal
cord, and nerves, and that
they are made up of nerve
cells known as neurons
