Animal Tissues
  1. Epithelial Tissue
    1. Simple Squamous Epithelium: Flat, permeable, and lines the surface of vessels and alveoli
      1. Stratified Squamous Epithelium: Multiple layers to handle wear and tear, found in skin, oesophagus, mouth
        1. Columnar Epithelium: Facilitates Transport
          1. Ciliated in Respiratory Tract to clear mucus
            1. Non-Ciliated in Intestine
            2. Cuboidal Epithelial for support in salivary glands and kidney tubules
            3. Connective Tissue
              1. Adipose: Fat Tissue
                1. Fluid
                  1. Blood: Colloid of plasma (made of proteins, salts and hormones) with RBCs, WBCs, platelets
                    1. Lymph
                    2. Aerolar
                      1. Tendons: Connect bones to bones
                        1. Ligaments: Connect muscles to bones
                        2. Skeletal
                          1. Bone: Very hard, provides structure to the body, cells embedded in hard matrix of calcium and phosphorus compounds
                            1. Cartilage: Smoothens the bone surface at joints, also found in nose, ear, trachea and larynx
                          2. Muscular Tissue
                            1. Skeletal Muscles: Voluntarily controlled, mostly attached to bone, striated in microscope
                              1. Smooth Muscles: Involuntary, long spindle shaped cells, found intestines, vessels, ureters and bronchii
                                1. Cardiac Muscles: Muscles of Heart
                                2. Nervous Tissue
