The four types of tissue are

• muscle, transitional, epithelial, connective

• muscle, nervous, epithelial, connective

• muscle, epithelial, connective, squamous

• cardiac, transitional, epithelial, connective

Nervous tissue

• Tissue that is responsible for lining and covering 
• Tissue responsible for protecting, supporting, and binding together other body tissues
• Tissues that contracts and shortens to produce movement
• Tissue that receives and conducts electrochemical impulses from one part of the body to another

Epithelial tissue is

• Bone, cartilage,dense connective tissue, loose connective tissue, and blood
• Highly specialized tissue that contracts or shortens to produce movement
• Lining and covering tissue of the body such as skin

This type of tissue includes ligaments, tendons, and cartilage

• epithelial
• connective
• muscular
• nervous

Since epithelial tissue lines or covers organs of the body which statement is true

• the epithelial cells rapidly grow and are replaced
• epithelial cells are slow growing and rarely shed.
