3/4/2021 2
Classification of Epithelial Tissues • Two simple rules 1. Shape of cells (always check the most superficial layer) • • Squamous (plate-like) Cuboidal Columnar Pseudostratified (appears to be multiple layers) 2. Number of layers • • • 3/4/2021 Simple (one layer) Stratified (more than one layer) Transitional (cells change shape) 3
Simple Epithelium • Simple squamous • Simple cuboidal • Simple columnar • Pseudostratified

Elastic Connective Tissue 3/4/2021 85
Elastic Connective Tissue • Relatively rare • But relatively high concentration in several organs including the largest arteries • This image shows a portion of the wall of the aorta • Elastin fibers important in the recoil of organs like arteries and lungs 3/4/2021 86
