Epithelium

The video tutorial by Dr. Morton covers the basics of epithelium, one of the four basic tissue types in the body. It explains the structure, characteristics, and classifications of epithelial tissue, including simple squamous, cuboidal, columnar, stratified squamous, transitional, and pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium. The video also discusses the functions and locations of these tissues, as well as the roles of cilia and microvilli in epithelial cells. The tutorial concludes with a practice exercise to reinforce learning.
