Neurons are the primary cell type in nervous tissue, responsible for transmitting signals throughout the body.

Ciliated columnar epithelium helps in moving mucus and trapped particles out of the respiratory tract, aiding in protection and clearance.

Elastic cartilage provides flexible support and is found in structures such as the external ear.

Transitional epithelium is specialized to allow stretching and is found in the urinary bladder.

Simple squamous epithelium is found in the alveoli, allowing for efficient gas exchange due to its thin structure.

Hyaline cartilage has a gel-like matrix and provides smooth surfaces for joint movement at the ends of long bones.

Adipose tissue is specialized for energy storage, as it contains adipocytes that store fat.

Stratified squamous epithelium is designed to protect underlying tissues in areas subject to abrasion, such as the skin.

Smooth muscle is involuntary and is found in the walls of hollow organs such as the intestines and blood vessels.

Dense regular connective tissue is characterized by tightly packed collagen fibers, providing strength and resistance to tensile forces, making it ideal for tendons.
