Skin is composed of this tissue, and it also lines the body cavities and major organs. There are several different types of epithelial tissue, which form to fulfil specific needs and functions. This tissue, known as the epithelium, can filter, absorb, and diffuse various substances. This tissue is very close together and conjoined, they are overlapping each other and on top of each other. It has holes on it that are all the same and in the same place on each part of the tissue. The cells are tightly packed together with minimal intracellular spaces between them. The cells are attached to each other and they are polarized, with an “up” side and a “down” side which connects to the basement membrane or...
