In humans, there are four basic types of tissue: epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous tissue. There may be various sub-tissues within each of the primary tissues. Epithelial tissue covers the body surface and forms the lining for most internal cavities.

Epithelial tissue: covers the body surface and forms the lining for most internal cavities.

Connective tissue:the most abundant and the most widely distributed of the tissues.

Nerve tissue: is composed of specialized cells which not only receive stimuli but also conduct impulses to and from all parts of the body.

muscle tissue: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac.
