Lecture 5 Flashcards
Epithelium
Epithelium functions
- Protection
- Absorption
- Secretion
- Sensory reception
Label the colored areas with the tissue type they represent

Connective tissue
General Features of Epithelium

- MORE cells and LESS extracellular matrix
- Proliferation and high turnover
- Avascular (NO blood vessels)
- Polarity
Polarity

- Free outer surface
- Basal surface facing underlying connective tissue
- Lateral surface communicating with neighboring cells
