Answer 2

Epithelial tissues are widespread throughout the body. They form the covering of all body surfaces, line body cavities and hollow organs, and are the major tissue in glands. They perform a variety of functions that include protection, secretion, absorption, excretion, filtration, diffusion, and sensory reception.

EXAMPLE:-Epithelial tissues line the outer surfaces of organs and blood vessels throughout the body, as well as the inner surfaces of cavities in many internal organs. An example is the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin. There are three principal shapes of epithelial cell: squamous, columnar, and cuboidal.

Role of epithelial Tissue:-1)They form the outer layer of skin. They protect underlying cells from drying,injury,chemical effects etc. 2)Form lining of mouth and alimentary canal,protect these organs. 3)Help in absorption of water and nutrients.

There are three principal cell shapes associated with epithelial cells: squamous epithelium, cuboidal epithelium, and columnar epithelium. There are three ways of describing the layering of epithelium: simple, stratified, and pseudostratified.
