Skin tissue

Epithelial tissues serve many purposes such as protection, secretion, absorbs, and filters what goes through cavities. There are many types of epithelial tissues, such as the epidermis (which is the outer layer of the skin). Epithelial tissues protects the body from bacteria. The epithelial tissues actually removes dust that is ingested during respiration. WOW! Note worthy!

Epithelia tissue covers the body surfaces, lines body cavities, forms external and internal linings of many organs, and constitutes glands. It has many different forms for its many functions: protection, secretion, excretion, absorption, filtration, and sensation. Each type of epithelial tissue will be outlined in detail.

Epithelial Tissue. Epithelial tissue covers the body’s outer surface and lines the internal closed cavities (including blood vessels) and body tubes that communicate with the exterior (gastrointestinal, respiratory, and genitourinary tracts). Epithelium also forms the secretory portion of glands and their ducts. Origin and Characteristics Epithelial tissue is derived from all three embryonic layers. Most epithelia of the skin, mouth, nose, and anus are derived from the ectoderm. Linings of…

Areolar tissue (loose fibrous connective tissue) are characterized by lots of ground substance (more space, less fibers). It contains collagen and elastic fibers, fibroblasts, and numbers blood vessels. It can be found underlying almost all epithelia (providing nutrients from blood vessels to epithelia) , around blood vessels, esophagus, trachea, etc. It functions to loosely bind epithelia to other tissues, immune function, and allows passage for nerves/blood vessels.

This tissue is delicate with both collagen and elastin, while also containing fiber making cells (fibroblasts). The thick strands are the collagen fibers and the dark tiny strands are the elastic fibers, while the purple dots are fibroblasts. This tissue makes up the tissue under the skin which connects skin to muscle. If one is without collagen then the skin would not be sturdily connected to muscle and become super stretchy with just elastin.
