| what is the structure of pseudostratified columnar | looks layered, but all cells touch the basement membrane |
| what is the location of pseudostratified | lines respiratory passageways |
| what is the structure of stratified columnar | superficial cells are columnar, deep cells are cuboidal |
| what is the locations of stratified columnar | pherics, male reproductive organs |
| what is the structure of loose areolar | few cells in a gel Matrix containing collagenous and elastic fibers |
| where is loose areolar located | quietly distributed, forms delicate membrane around the body |
| what are the functions of loose areolar | supports and binds organs and other tissues, nourishes epithelium |
