Epithelial cell tissues have the endings of neurons within them which allow the perception of external stimulus. Epithelium tissue is also held tightly together by desmosomes, hemidesmosomes, and tight junctions which help cells to withstand mechanical stress. Some epithelial cells have cilia which help in moving things along, such as in the fallopian tubes.
