1. Muscle 2. connective tissues expand and contract the lungs. 3. Nervous tissue sends and receives messages that help regulate gas exchange in the lungs and the rate at which a person breathes. 4. Epithelial tissue forms the inner lining of the lungs.
The lungs are composed of four main types of tissue: epithelial tissue, which lines the airways and alveoli; connective tissue, providing structural support and elasticity; smooth muscle tissue, allowing for the regulation of airflow and bronchoconstriction; and nervous tissue, which controls breathing and responds to changes in the respiratory environment. These tissue types work together to facilitate gas exchange and maintain lung function.
The lungs are organs. They are made up of multiple tissue types working together for a common function.
Nerve tissue and Epithelial tissue would be my guess. But I am no expert, just a homeschooling mom.
Lungs are made of spongey elastic tissue. Muscles around the lungs help it contract.
The pleura cover and protect the lungs in a fetal pig.
The lungs are organs. They are made up of multiple tissue types working together for a common function.
The human body has 4 primary tissue types: epithelium, connective tissue, nervous tissue, and muscle.
Areolar tissue in the lungs forms part of the lamina propria, an underlayer of the serous membranes (pleura) of the lungs.
Connective Tissue
Simple squamous epithelium is the type of epithelial tissue present in the organs where exchange of substances takes place, such as in the lungs for gas exchange or in the kidney for filtration. This type of tissue is thin and allows for efficient diffusion of substances.
The type of tissue in the lungs is mostly epithelial. The other tissue is connective, and some of this is blood, which is a liquid connective tissue.
