Epithelial tissue consists of a sheet of closely adhering cells, one or more cells
thick, with the upper surface usually exposed to the environment or to an
internal space in the body. Epithelium covers the body surface, lines body
cavities, forms the external and internal linings of many organs, and
constitutes most gland tissue.
Epithelia are avascular
(without blood vessels)
—there is no room for
them bet ween the cells.
Epithelia, however,
usually lie on a vessel-

tissue, which furnishes
them with nutrients
