Tissue

1. Epithelial Tissue: boundary layer

   • Polarity (up and down sides)
   • Avascular
   • Ennervated
   • Specialized Contacts
   • Support from Connective Tissue
   • High regenerative capacity
   • Simple
     • Pseudostratified
     • Squamous
     • Cuboidal
     • Columnar
   • Stratified
     • Squamous
     • Cuboidal
     • Columnar

2. Connective:Binding and Support

   • Most widely distributed
   • Insulation
   • Fat storage
   • Blood and Lymph Transportation
   • Extracellular Matrix
     • Ground substance
     • Fibers
       • Collagen
       • Elastic
       • Reticular
   • Embryonic: Mesenchyme
   • Connective Tissue Proper
     • Loose
       • Areolar
       • Adipose
       • Reticular
     • Dense
       • Dense Regular
       • Dense Irregular
   • Cartilage
     • Hyaline
     • Elastic

3. Muscle: Contraction and Movement

   • Skeletal
   • Cardiac
   • Smooth

4. Nervous
