Complete Parts A – E of this lab.
Part A: Histology Overview
Using your lesson notes, complete the following.
1. Histology is the study of tissues.
2. List the 4 major types of tissues found in the body:
a. Nervous Tissue
b. Muscle Tissue
c. Connective Tissue
d. Epithelial Tissue
3. Two or more cells working together to perform a specific function are a tissue .
Identify each microscopic image by its tissue type:
4. Muscle Tissue
5. Nervous Tissue
6. Epithelial Tissue
7. Connective Tissue

Part B: Epithelium
8. Location: Epithelial tissue is located skin in the body.
9. Function: Epithelial tissue functions to protect and cover exterior surfaces of the
body, lines internal cavities and passageways, and form certain glands .
Classification
Epithelial tissue is classified by its SHAPE and number of LAYERS . (See the table below
showing these classifications.)
 SHAPES : are named squamous, cuboidal, or columnar
 LAYERS : are named simple (one layer of cells), stratified (more than 1 layer of cells), or
pseudostratified (1 layer of cells that appears to be multiple layers)
Table of Epithelial Tissue Classifications
Epithelial Tissue Classifications Explained
This image illustrates a flat , scale-like cells:
squamous
 It shows 1 layer : simple .
 The lower portion of the image shows more
than 1 layer : stratified .
This image illustrates cube-shaped cells: cuboidal.
