single layer of flat cells, found in capillaries and lining airways - simple squamous epithelium, most rigid, made of calcium and collagen - bone tissue, many layers of flat cells. Found in skin, used for protection - stratified squamous epithelium, many layers of cubed cells, line the glands - stratified cuboidal epithelium, have cilia, appear as many layers, but only one. Move mucus through respiratory passages - pseudostratified columnar epithelium, random pattern of collagen, holds organs in place, strong in many directions - loose connective tissue, conducts impulses and allows for sensory reception - nerve tissue, this tissue is found in the heart, is involuntary and is not striated - cardiac muscle tissue, stretches to change shape, found in the bladder - transitional epithelium, thick, wavy, tightly packed collagen, strong in only one direction, found in ligaments/tendons - dense connective tissue, always circular or teardrop shaped, made to secrete substances in glands - glandular epithelium, single layer of cubed cells, found in kidney ducts - simple cuboidal epithelium, firm and rubber-like, found in joints, trachea, nose, ears - hyaline cartilage, contains several cell types suspended in fluid plasma - blood, fat stored under skin and between muscles - adipose tissue, this tissue is attached to bone, considered voluntary and is striated - skeletal muscle tissue, single layer of tall cells, make up thick linings in stomach, intestine and uterus. Produce mucus - simple columnar epithelium, this tissue is in hollow organs, is considered involuntary and is not striated - smooth muscle tissue,
