Transitional | Stretchy and variably shaped |
Simple | Arranged in a single layer and are all the same type of cell. |
Stratified | Arranged in several layers and named by the type of the outer cell. |
Pseudostratified | Looks stratified but isnt. |

Dentrites | short branched extension of a nerve cell. |
myelin sheath | surrounds core of nerve fiber or axon that facilitates transmission of nerve impulses. |
ORGANS | two or more tissues combined into one that do the task the single tissue cannot |
