Epithelia tissues consists of closely-packed cells arranged in one or more flat sheets. Their apical surface is exposed to the external environmental while their basal surface is attached to the tissue beneath it. The connective tissues link the epithelial cells to other structures. Nutrients travel to the epithelia tissues via diffusion through the capillaries.
Simple receptors found in epithelia and connective tissue tend to detect physical stimuli such as pressure, touch, and temperature changes. They send sensory information to the brain via sensory neurons to help in the perception of the external environment.
Yes, epithelia have an apical surface facing the external environment or a body cavity and a basal surface attached to underlying connective tissue. These surfaces are important for cell polarity and function in processes such as absorption, secretion, and barrier formation.
Epithelial, Nervous, and Muscular tissue.
Pseudostratified epithelial tissue appears to be stratified due to the varying positions of the cell nuclei, but all cells are actually attached to the basement membrane. This type of tissue typically contains cells with cilia and can be found lining the respiratory tract. Observing the nuclei at different levels within the tissue can help identify it as pseudostratified.
Epithelial tissue is one of the four types of tissue in the body (nervous, muscular, and connective being the other three) that lines the body cavities. It is also found in the skin, which is the organ that covers most of the body's surface.
There are four major tissue types: epithelia, connective, muscle and nervous tissue.

Epithelia, Connective, Muscular and Nervous
Epithelia are tissues consisting of closely apposed cells without intervening intercellular substances. Epithelia are avascular, but all epithelia "grow" on an underlying layer of vascular connective tissue. The connective tissue and the epithelium are separated by a basement membrane. Epithelium covers all free surfaces of the body. Epithelium also lines the large internal body cavities, where it is termed mesothelium.

Simple receptors found in epithelia and connective tissue tend to detect physical stimuli such as pressure, touch, and temperature changes. They send sensory information to the brain via sensory neurons to help in the perception of the external environment.
Yes, epithelia have an apical surface facing the external environment or a body cavity and a basal surface attached to underlying connective tissue. These surfaces are important for cell polarity and function in processes such as absorption, secretion, and barrier formation.
Epithelial cells are bound together in sheets of tissue called epithelia. These sheets are held together through several types of interactions, including tight junctions, adherens, desmosomes, and gap junctions.
