Columnar
Transitional
Flat irregular shape tissue
Squamous
Cubed shaped tissue
Cuboidal
Columnar shaped tissue
Long and narrow
Transitional shaped tissue
Changes shape
What type of layer of tissue has only one layer
Simple layer
What type of tissue has many layers
Stratified
What layer of tissue has only one layer but looks like many
Pseudostratified
Found in lungs
Simple squamous
Found in skin acting as protective barrier
Stratified squamous
Found in digestive system
Simple columnar
Found in urinary bladder to prevent rupture when bladder is full
Transitional
Connective tissue made up of Adipocytes that store triglycerides for energy
Adipose
Contains chondrocytes and makes up shark skeletons
Cartilage
Nonstriated involuntary found in visceral organs
Smooth muscle tissue
Striated voluntary found in skeletal muscles
Skeletal muscle tissue
Striated involuntary found in heart
Cardiac muscle tissue
Able to conduct action such as nerve impulses and muscle contraction
Neurons
Internal distribution of materials
Circulatory system
