| Simple Epithelium | Simple squamous epithelium consists of only one layer of flat, scalelike cells |
| Simple cuboidal epithelium | composed of one layer of cuboi-dal cells resting on a basement membrane |
| Simple columnar epithelium | composes the surface of the mucous membrane that lines the stomach, intestine, uterus, uterine tubes, and parts of the respiratory tract ( |
| Goblet cells | have large, secretory vesicles that give them the ap-pearance of a goblet. |
| Pseudostratified columnar epithelium | found lining the air passages of the respiratory system and certain segments of the male reproductive system, such as the urethra |
| Stratified squamous epithelium | char-acterized by multiple layers of cells with typically flattened squa-mous cells at the free, or outer, surface of the epithelial sheet |
| Stratified cuboidal epithelium | two or more rows of low cuboidal cells are arranged ran-domly over a basement membrane. Stratified cuboidal epithelium can be located in the sweat gland ducts, in the pharynx, and over parts of the epiglottis. |
| Exocrine glands, | discharge their secre-tion products into ducts. |
| Reticular tissue | framework of the spleen, lymph nodes, and bone marrow. It is often called marrow tissue or lymphoid tissue in these locations. |
| Dense fibrous tissue | ibers packed densely in the matrix. It contains relatively few fibroblast cells |
| red bone marrow, | produces new blood cells. |
| membrane bones | formed within membranous tissue, |
| osteoclast, | bone-destroying cell |
| Hyaline cartilage | the most prevalent type of cartilage and is found in the support rings of the respiratory tubes and covering the ends of bones that articulate at joints |
