- - - - Single-layer of rectangular-shaped cells - Digestive tract and uterus lining - Secrete and absorb protect
    - - Looks like many layers but is a single layer - Lining of trachea and fallopian tubes of female repro system - Secretion and movement of materials
  - - - Multiple layers of flattened cells
        Found in lining of kidney glands, gland ducts, covers ovaries
    - - Cube shaped cells
        Secrete, absorb, protect
  - - - Multiple layers of thin flattened cells - Skin - Protect the body cavities like the mouth and outer layers of skin

- - - - Cartilage
        
        Function:firm tissue but softer and more flexible than bone, creates a low friction environment and cushions joint surfaces
        
        Location:joints between bones, elbows/knees/ankles/end of ribs
      - Blood
        
        Location: Erythrocytes/leukocytes/platelets
        
        Function: transports nutrients/gases/wastes/hormones, circulates through cardiovascular system
    - - Function: cushion/insulate body and store energy from fat
      - Location: mainly in stomach and thighs
    - - Function: stores minerals/provide internal support/protect vital organs/enable movement/provide attachment site for muscles and tendons
      - Location:skeletal system
- - - - The main tissue of the walls of the heart
        
        Pump blood out and then relax to let blood back in after it has circulated through the body
    - - found in the walls of hollow organs like your intestines and stomach
        
        Apply pressure to vessels and organs
    - - Attached to bones by bundles of collagen fibers known as tendons
        
        Move Bones
