- - - - provide support and protection
        
        minerals and fibers provide a bony structural frame for he body
      - transportation of materials
        
        fluid connective tissues provide an efficient way of moving materials from one part of the body to the other
      - storage of extra energy
        
        fats are stored in adipose cells until needed
      - allows for defense of the body
        
        respond to invasions of micro organisms through the production antibodies
- - - - cover exposed sufraces
      - line internal passage ways and chambers
      - produce glandular secretions
    - - fill internal spaces
      - provide structural support
      - store energy
    - - contracts to produce active movement
    - - conducts electrical impulses
      - carries info
- - - - endocrine
      - exocrine
      - glandular epithelium
      - gland cells
- - - - simple epithelium
        
        consisting of single layer of cells covering the basement membrane simple epithelium are thin, fragile and are not able to provide mechanical protection
      - stratified epithelium
        
        provides a greater degree of protection because it has several layers
    - - Squamous
        
        thin and flat, nucleus occupies the thickest part
      - Cuboidal
        
        resemble little hexagons, and when in 3d they are like little squares.
      - columnar
        
        cells are hexagonal but a taller slender build.
- - - - line the cavities that work with digestive, respiratory, and urinary systems, these keep the epithelial surfaces moist
    - - line the internal subdivisions of the ventral body cavity, each consisting of simple epithelium supported by loose connective tissue.
    - - skin
    - - produce synovial fluid to keep all joints where bones connect properly lubricated
- - - - swelling
      - warmth
      - redness
      - pain
- - - - hormones
      - energy consumption
      - changes in overall body lifestyle
