Mucous tissue is the membranes that line the structures and tracts of the body. Examples of this are in the nose, stomach and intestines, urinary bladder, mouth and eyelids.
mucous cells
Mostly the mucous tissue in the respiratory system, but mucous tissue in the gastrointestinal system is also affected.
Chlamydia prefers to infect a type of tissue called columnar epithelium. This tissue is found in mucous membranes, but not on the external skin.
The lining of the entire digestive tract is called the mucosa. It makes what we call mucous.
A mucous membrane
The membranes that line body cavities open to the exterior are called mucous membranes. They are made up of epithelial tissue and are found in areas like the respiratory, digestive, and reproductive tracts. Mucous membranes help protect the body by secreting mucus and trapping pathogens.
mucoid connective tissue (Wharton jelly)areolar (?)
No, mucus is not a muscle but a secretion in epithelial tissue.
Skin and mucous membranes
The innermost layer of the stomach is made of mucous membrane. The mucous membrane of the stomach contains simple columnar epithelium tissue, that has many exocrine cells.
stratified squamos epithelial
Connective tissue forms the framework for the lamina propria of the mucous membranes. This tissue provides support and structure to the overlying epithelial cells and contains blood vessels and immune cells that help maintain the health of the mucosa.
