Tissues are groups of cells that lie together to accomplish a common function. There are four main types of tissues: epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous. All of these tissues are found in our bodies, but epithelial tissue has a special function-- it must cover all the surfaces of the body. Therefore, it is found in our skin, and it is also found covering all the surfaces of the openings (each one is called a lumen) within our bodies.
