Look through her and you will find that this tissue is found in those places and many more. Depends on what type of epthelial tissue:
Types of epithelial tissue - (type - structure - location - function)
- Simple squamous - one layer of fat cells - lines ventral body cavities, heart and blood vessels, and portions of the kidney tubules (thin sections of loop of Henle), inner lining of the cornea, and exchange surfaces of the lungs (alveoli) - permits difusion of gases, reduces friction, controls vessel permeability, and performs absorption and secretion
- Simple cuboidal - one layer of cube-shaped cells - found in glands, ducts, portions of kidney tubules - provides limited protection, secretion of hormones, and / or absorption
- Simple columnar - one layer of column-shaped cells - line the stomach, intestine, gallbladder, uterine tubes, and collecting ducts of kidneys - protection, secretion of gastric juices and enzymes, and absorption of digestive end products (if microvilli present)
- Pseudostratified columnar - line the nasal cavity, bronchi, and trachea - provides protection and secretion
- Ciliated - one layer of columnar cells with cilia on their free surfaces - lines trachea and fallopian tubes - sweeps mucus and dust to the pharynx and sweeps ovum toward uterus.
- Transitional - many layers of cells, but surface cells change from rounded to flat - line the urinary bladder, renal pelvis, and ureters - permits expansion and recoils after stretching
- Stratified squamous - many layers of cells (surface -- flat, lower cells -- rounded, lower layer undergoes mitosis) - located on the skin surface and line the mouth, throat, esophagus, rectum, anus, and vagina - provides physical protection against abrasion, pathogens, and chemical attack. Surface cells of epidermis are dead providing a barrier to pathogens while interior cells are living and also provide a barrier for pathogens.

What type of tissue is found between bones?
Usually smooth muscle, that or cartilage because that cushions your bones
What Tissue is present in long bone?
Red marrow is found in long bones, also associated with them are tendons and ligaments (connective tissues and hylaine cartilage. The bone itself is made of cancellous tissue.
Tough supportive tissue that is softer than bone?
A connective tissue that is more flexible than bone that but that functions within the skeletal system is called cartilage. Cartilage can be found at the tip of your nose, or in your outer ear.
What connective tissue is found on your skeleton?
Connective tissue is one which is rich in intercellular substance or interlacing processes with little tendency for the cells to come together in sheets or masses. Ligament is the connective tissue that connect bones to bones .
Found in flat bones and end of long bones?
cartilage
What tissue is found in bones and cartilage?
connective tissue
What hard tissue is found in vertebrates?
Bones and cartilage are found in most all vertebrates, with the exception of sharks and rays, which only have cartilage.
What type of tissue is found between bones?
Usually smooth muscle, that or cartilage because that cushions your bones
What Connective tissue found at the end of bones?
At the end of bones, you have cartilage separating bones from other bones. You have tendons attaching them to other bones or muscles.
What is cartilage?
Cartilage is flexible connective tissue that is often found in joints near bones. Elastic cartilage is more flexible than hyaline cartilage. It is found between bones in joints to stop them from rubbing of bone tissue and to allow movement without pain. It is white and is shiny and hard. Also it is 10x slipperier than ice.
Where in the body cartilage is present?
Cartilage is the substance found between two bones. It is like a lubricant which stops the bones rubbing together.without it are joints wouldn't really work.
What is the medical term meaning fibrous connective tissue that is found at the ends of bones and in the nose and ears?
cartilage
The smooth flexible layer of tissue covering the ends of bone is?
Hyaline cartilage is a type of tissue found at the ends of some bones.It is an amorphous (chondroitin and glucosamine) matrix that surrounds cells that are called chondrocytes (within lacunae).It acts as a support and as a cushion. It has little blood supply and because of that it heals poorly.
Animal tissue that reduces friction between bones at joints?
yes it reduces friction between bones, and also, synovial fluid reduces friction at the joints as well.
What is the most common type of cartilage found between bones in freely moveable joints?
Light micrograph of hyaline cartilage is a flexible connective tissue. This is including the joints between bones. To maintain this, one would need to take glucosamine chondroitin or something similar.
Which connective tissue appears glassy and smooth?
The connective tissue that appears to be glassy and smooth is known as hyaline cartilage. It covers the end of the long bones so as to avoid compression.
What cartilage is found abundantly in the tip of the nose?
The tissue in the nose is composed of hyaline cartilage, a slick, rubbery tissue also found in the outer ear, trachea, larynx, and the connections between bones. The shape of these tissues determines the shape of the nose.
