Types of Tissues
There are four tissue types in the human body:
Epithelial – a covering or lining tissue1.
Connective – a diverse primary tissue type that makes up
part of every organ in the body
2.
Muscle – a tissue that contracts or shortens, making
movement possible
3.
Nervous – responsible for coordinating and controlling
many body activities
4.

Classification of Epithelia 1
Epithelial tissues are classified primarily according to the
number of cell layers and the shape of the superficial cells.
The cell layers can be simple, stratified, or pseudostratified.
The cell shapes can be squamous, cuboidal, columnar, or a
special transitional shape, that varies with the degree of
stretch.
8

Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw Hill LLC.
Classification of Epithelia 2
Simple epithelium consists of a single layer of cells, with
each cell extending from the basement membrane to the
free surface.
Stratified epithelium consists of more than one layer of
cells, but only the basal layer attaches the deepest layer to
the basement membrane.
9

Classification of Epithelia 3
Pseudostratified columnar epithelium is a special type of
simple epithelium, that appears to be falsely stratified.
It consists of one layer of cells, with all the cells attached to
the basement membrane.
Due to variations in the shape of the cells, the epithelia
appears stratified.
10

Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw Hill LLC.
Classification of Epithelia 4
There are three types of epithelium based on idealized shapes
of the epithelial cells:
Squamous cells are flat or scalelike. 1.
Cuboidal cells are cube-shaped—about as wide as they are
tall.
2.
Columnar cells tend to be taller than they are wide.3.

Simple Squamous Epithelium 1
Simple squamous epithelium is a single layer of thin, flat
cells.
Some substances easily pass through this thin layer of cells,
but other substances do not.
In the lungs, simple squamous epithelium, allows for gas
exchange.
In the kidneys, simple squamous epithelium, helps filter
wastes from the blood while keeping blood cells inside the
blood vessels.

Stratified Squamous Epithelium 1
Stratified squamous epithelium forms a thick epithelium
because it consists of several layers of cells.
Though the deepest cells are cuboidal or columnar and are
capable of dividing and producing new cells, the naming is
based on the shape of the surface cells.
There are two types of stratified squamous epithelia:
keratinized stratified squamous and nonkeratinized
stratified squamous epithelia.

Keratinized Stratified Squamous Epithelium
The outer layer of the skin is comprised of a keratinized
squamous epithelium.
The keratin reduces the loss of water from the body.
21

Nonkeratinized Stratified Squamous Epithelium
Stratified squamous epithelium of the mouth is a moist
nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium.
This nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium provides
protection against abrasion and acts as a mechanical
barrier.
Water, however, can move across it more readily than
across the skin (keratinized stratified squamous).

Stratified Squamous Epithelium 2
Figure of Table 4.3 Stratified Epithelium (Part A)
(a) Stratified Squamous Epithelium
Alvin Telser/McGraw-Hill Education
Structure:
Several layers of cells that are cuboidal in the basal
layer and progressively flattened toward the
surface; the epithelium can be nonkeratinized
(moist) or keratinized; in nonkeratinized stratified
squamous epithelium, the surface cells retain a
nucleus and cytoplasm; in keratinized stratified
epithelium, the cytoplasm of cells at the surface is
replaced by a protein called keratin, and the cells
are dead
Function:
Protects against abrasion, forms a barrier against
infection, and reduces loss of water from the body
Location:
Keratinized—outer layer of the skin; nonkeratinized
—mouth, throat, larynx, esophagus, anus, vagina,
inferior urethra, and corneas

Transitional Epithelium 1
Transitional epithelium is a special type of stratified
epithelium that can be greatly stretched.
The shape of the cells change as the epithelium is
stretched.
Transitional epithelium lines cavities that can expand
greatly, such as the urinary bladder.
It also protects underlying structures, like the urinary
bladder, from the caustic effects of urine.

Structure:
Stratified cells that appear cuboidal when
the organ or tube is not stretched and
squamous when the organ or tube is
stretched by fluid
Function:
Accommodates fluctuations in the volume
of fluid in an organ or a tube; protects
against the caustic effects of urine
Location:
Lining of urinary bladder, ureters, and
superior urethra

Free Surface Modifications
Most epithelia have a free surface that is not in contact with
other cells and faces away from underlying tissues.
The characteristics of the free surface reflect its functions.
The free surface can be smooth or lined with microvilli or
cilia.
Cilia move materials over the top of the cell.
Microvilli increase surface area.

Cell Connections 1
Cells have several structures that hold one cell to one
another or to the basement membrane.
These structures do three things: mechanically bind the
cells together, help form a permeability barrier, and provide
a mechanism for intercellular communication.
Desmosomes are mechanical links that bind cells together.
Hemidesmosomes are half desmosomes that anchor cells
to the basement membrane.
27

Cell Connections 2
Tight junctions are cell connection structures that form
barriers and anchor cells to each other.
Structures called adhesion belts are found just below the
tight junctions, and help tight junctions anchor epithelial cells
to each other.
They prevent the passage of materials between epithelial
cells because they completely surround each cell.
28

Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw Hill LLC.
Cell Connections 3
Materials that pass through an epithelial layer with tight
junctions must pass through the cells, so those cells
regulate what materials can cross.
Tight junctions are found in the lining of the intestines.
29

Cell Connections 4
Gap junctions are small channels that allow small
molecules and ions to pass from one epithelial cell to an
adjacent one.
Most epithelial cells are connected to one another by gap
junctions, and researchers believe that molecules or ions
moving through the gap junctions act as communication
signals to coordinate the activities of the cells.

Glands 1
Glands are secretory organs that secrete substances onto a
surface, into a cavity, or into the bloodstream.
Glands are composed primarily of epithelium, with a
supporting network of connective tissue.
Glands with ducts are called exocrine glands.
Both the gland and its ducts are lined with epithelium.
Endocrine glands are ductless glands; they secrete their
products (termed hormones) into the bloodstream.
32

Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw Hill LLC.
Structure of Exocrine Glands
The duct is the tube that transports the secreted material to
the free surface of the epithelium.
The secretory portion of the gland lies deeper in the
epithelium and is composed of cells that produce the
secreted material.
Multicellular exocrine glands can be classified according to
the structure of their ducts and secretory regions, and mode
of secretion.
33

Glands 2
There are 3 categories of exocrine glands:
Unicellular glands are composed of only a single cell.
Simple glands are multicellular and have a single,
nonbranched duct.
Compound glands are multicellular and have several
branched ducts.
34

Glands 3
Glands with secretory regions shaped as tubules (small tubes)
are called tubular, whereas those shaped in saclike structures
are called acinar or alveolar.
35

Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw Hill LLC.
Simple Glands
There are several types of simple glands:
Simple tubular—glands forming a straight tube with no
branching of the secretory portion
Simple branched tubular—gland with several tubular
secretory portions branching from the single duct
Simple acinar—glands with a single sac-like secretory
portion
Simple branched acinar—glands with several acinar
secretory portions branching from the single duct
36

Compound Glands
There are several types of compound glands:
Compound tubular—glands with multiple ducts, each with a
narrow tubular secretory portion
Compound acinar—glands with multiple ducts, each with a
several sac- like secretory portions
Compound tubuloacinar—glands with multiple ducts, each
with several tubular and acinar secretory portions

Glands 4
Exocrine glands can also be classified according to their
modes of secretion.
Merocrine secretion involves the release of secretory
products by exocytosis.
Apocrine secretion involves the release of secretory
products as pinched-off fragments of the gland cells.
Holocrine secretion involves the shedding of entire cells.

Connective Tissue
Connective tissue is a diverse primary tissue type that
makes up part of every organ in the body.
Connective tissue differs from the other three tissue types in
that it consists of cells separated from each other by
abundant extracellular matrix.
Connective tissue is diverse in both structure and function.
Connective tissue is comprised of cells, protein fibers, and
an extracellular matrix.

Functions of Connective Tissue
Enclose and separate other tissues1.
Connecting tissues to one another2.
Supporting and moving parts of the body3.
Storing compounds4.
Cushioning and insulating5.
Transporting6.
Protecting7.

Connective Tissue Cells 1
The specialized cells of the various connective tissues
produce the extracellular matrix.
The name of the cell identifies the cell functions.
Osteoblasts form bone, osteocytes maintain it, and
osteoclasts break it down.
Fibroblasts are cells that form fibrous connective tissue,
and fibrocytes maintain it.
Chondroblasts form cartilage and chondrocytes maintain it.
43

Connective Tissue Cells 2
Cells associated with the immune system, such as white
blood cells, are also found in connective tissue.
Macrophages are large cells that are capable of moving
about and ingesting foreign substances, including
microorganisms in the connective tissue.
Mast cells are nonmotile cells that release chemicals, such
as histamine, that promote inflammation.
44

Extracellular Matrix
The extracellular matrix of connective tissue has three major
components: protein fibers, ground substance, and fluid.
Ground substance consists of non-fibrous protein and
other molecules.
The structure of the matrix is responsible for the functional
characteristics of connective tissues—for example, they
enable bones and cartilage to bear weight.
45

Matrix Protein Fibers
Three types of protein fibers—collagen, reticular, and elastic
—help form most connective tissues.
Collagen fibers, which resemble microscopic ropes, are
very flexible but resist stretching.
Reticular fibers are very fine, short collagen fibers that
branch to form a supporting network.
Elastic fibers have the ability to return to their original
shape after being stretched or compressed, giving tissue an
elastic quality.
46

Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw Hill LLC.
Matrix Ground Substance
The ground substance consists of non-fibrous molecules
and is shapeless.
It consists of proteoglycans, which are large molecules that
consist of a protein core attached to many long
polysaccharides.
Proteoglycans trap large quantities of water between the
polysaccharides, which allows them to return to their original
shape when compressed or deformed.

Types of Connective Tissues 1
The two main types of connective tissue are embryonic and
adult connective tissue.
By eight weeks of development, most of the embryonic
connective tissue has become specialized to form the types
of connective tissue seen in adults.
48

Types of Connective Tissues 2
Loose connective tissue consists of relatively few protein
fibers that form a lacy network, with numerous spaces filled
with ground substance and fluid.
Three subdivisions of loose connective tissue are areolar,
adipose, and reticular.
Areolar connective tissue primarily consists of collagen
fibers and a few elastic fibers.
The most common cells in loose connective tissue are the
fibroblasts.

Types of Connective Tissues 3
Adipose tissue consists of adipocytes, or fat cells, which
contain large amounts of lipid for energy storage.
Adipose tissue pads and protects parts of the body and acts
as a thermal insulator.
Reticular tissue forms the framework of lymphatic tissue,
such as in the spleen and lymph nodes, as well as in bone
marrow and the liver.

Structure: Little extracellular matrix
surrounding cells; the adipocytes, or
fat cells, are so full of lipid that the
cytoplasm is pushed to the periphery
of the cell Function: Packing
material, thermal insulator, energy
storage, and protection of organs

jarred Location: Predominantly in
subcutaneous areas, mesenteries,
renal pelves, around kidneys,
attached to the surface of the colon,
mammary glands, and in loose
connective tissue that penetrates into
spaces and crevices

Types of Connective Tissues 4
Dense connective tissue has a relatively large number of
protein fibers that form thick bundles and fill nearly all of the
extracellular space.
There are two major subcategories of dense connective
tissue: collagenous and elastic.
54

Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw Hill LLC.
Types of Connective Tissues 5
Dense collagenous connective tissue has an extracellular
matrix consisting mostly of collagen fibers.
Dense collagenous connective tissue having the collagen
fibers oriented in the same direction is termed dense
regular.

Types of Connective Tissues 7
Dense elastic connective tissue has abundant elastic fibers
among its collagen fibers.
The elastic fibers allow the tissue to stretch and recoil.
Examples include the dense elastic connective tissue in the
vocal cords.
A genetic condition called Marfan syndrome results from, in
part the inability to properly maintain and form elastic fibers.

Cartilage 1
Cartilage is composed of chondrocytes, located in spaces
called lacunae within an extensive matrix.
Collagen in the matrix gives cartilage flexibility and strength.
Cartilage is resilient because the proteoglycans of the matrix
trap water.
Cartilage provides support, but if bent or slightly
compressed, it resumes its original shape.
60

Cartilage 2
There are three types of cartilage: hyaline, fibrocartilage,
and elastic cartilage.
Hyaline cartilage is the most abundant type of cartilage
and has many functions, such as covering the ends of
bones, where they form joints.
Also forms the cartilage rings of the respiratory tract, the
nasal cartilages, and the costal cartilages, which attach the
ribs to the sternum (breastbone).

Hyaline Cartilage
Figure of Table 4.8 Supporting Connective Tissue: Cartilage (Part A)
(a) Hyaline Cartilage
©Victor P. Eroschenko
Structure:
Collagen fibers are small and evenly dispersed in
the matrix, making the matrix appear transparent;
the chondrocytes are found in spaces, or lacunae,
within the firm but flexible matrix
Function:
Allows growth of long bones; provides rigidity with
some flexibility in the trachea, bronchi, ribs, and
nose; forms strong, smooth, yet somewhat flexible
articulating surfaces; forms the embryonic
skeleton

Cartilage 3
Fibrocartilage has more collagen than does hyaline
cartilage and is able to withstand compression and resist
tearing or pulling.
Fibrocartilage is found in the disks between the vertebrae
(bones of the back) and in some joints, such as the knee
and temporomandibular (jaw) joints.

Bone 1
Bone is a hard connective tissue that consists of living cells
and a mineralized matrix. Osteocytes are located within
lacunae.
The strength and rigidity of the mineralized matrix enables
bones to support and protect other tissues and organs.
Two types of bone tissue exist: spongy bone and compact
bone.
67

Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw Hill LLC.
Bone 2
Spongy bone has spaces between trabeculae or plates, of
bone and therefore resembles a sponge.
Compact bone is more solid, with almost no space between
many thin layers of mineralized matrix.

Tissue Membranes 1
A tissue membrane is a thin sheet or layer of tissue that
covers a structure or lines a cavity.
Most membranes consist of epithelium and the connective
tissue on which the epithelium rests.
There are four tissue membranes in the body: cutaneous,
mucous, serous, and synovial.
The skin, termed the cutaneous membrane, is an external
body surface membrane.
81

Tissue Membranes 2
The mucous membranes line cavities that open to the
outside of the body, such as the digestive, respiratory, and
reproductive tracts.
Mucous membranes consist of epithelial cells, their
basement membrane, and a thick layer of loose connective
tissue.
Many, but not all, mucous membranes secrete mucus.
The functions of mucous membranes include protection,
absorption, and secretion.
82

Tissue Membranes 3
Serous membranes line cavities that do not open to the
exterior of the body, such as the pericardial, pleural, and
peritoneal cavities.
Serous membranes consist of three components: a layer of
simple squamous epithelium, its basement membrane, and
a delicate layer of loose connective tissue.
Serous membranes do not contain glands, but they secrete
a small amount of fluid called serous fluid, which lubricates
the surface of the membranes.
83

Tissue Membranes 4
Synovial membranes line the cavities of freely movable
joints.
They are made up of only connective tissue and consist of
modified connective tissue cells.
Synovial membranes produce synovial fluid, which makes
the joint very slippery, thereby reducing friction and allowing
smooth movement within the joint.

Tissue Repair 1
Tissue repair involves substitution of dead cells for viable
cells.
Tissue repair can occur by regeneration or replacement.
In regeneration, the new cells are the same type as those
that were destroyed, and normal function is usually restored.
In replacement, a new type of tissue develops, which
eventually produces a scar and causes loss of some tissue
function.

or produce vesicles that contain secretory products, and the vesicles empty
their contents into the duct through exocytosis. Apocrine gland: Secretory
products are stored in the cell near the lumen of the duct. A portion of the
cell near the lumen containing secretory products is pinched o­ the cell and
joins secretions produced by a merocrine process. Holocrine gland:
Secretory products are stored in the cells of the gland. Entire cells are shed
by the gland and become part of the secretion. The lost cells are replaced
by other cells deeper in the gland.
