Histology – study of tissues Groups of cells similar in structure and
function The four types of tissues
Epithelial Connective Muscle Nerve

Epithelial Tissue Cellularity – composed almost entirely of
cells
Special contacts – form continuous sheets held together by tight junctions

Epithelial Tissue Supported by connective tissue Avascular but innervated – contains no
blood vessels but supplied by nerve fibers
Regenerative – rapidly replaces lost cells by cell division

Classification of Epithelia by shape
Squamous, cuboidal, or columnar

Classification of Epithelia by layers
Simple or stratified

Epithelia: Simple Squamous #1

Epithelia: Simple Cuboidal (not in lab)

Epithelia: Simple Columnar #2

Epithelia: Pseudostratified Columnar #3

Epithelia: Transitional Several cell layers, basal cells are cuboidal,
surface cells are dome shaped Stretches to permit the distension of the
urinary bladder Lines the urinary bladder, ureters, and part
of the urethra
