Document Summary

E: many cells, tightly packed, not a lot of extracellular matrix, no blood vessels (which is why it is always near blood- vessel-rich connective tissues, always forms surface layers, never covered (expect by blood in veins) C: scattered cells, lots of extracellular material, significant networks of blood vessels. Inner- ducts, blood vessels, reproductive etc. 0: glandular: the secreting part of glands (ex. Classification: layers, simple (unilaminar): single layer that assists in: diffusion, osmosis, filtration, secretion (ex. 4: transitional: change from squamous to cuboidal. *keratinized, when surface cells are dead and hardened: table 3. 1 has good examples of where to find covering and lining epithelial! Salivary glands: are the ducts branched or not, doesn"t (cid:271)ran(cid:272)h= simple gland, branches= compound gland, the shape of the secretory portions of the glands, tubular secretory parts= tubular glands, rounded= acinar glands, tubuloacinar glands= round and tubular portions.
