Epithelial Tissue covers body surfaces (epi‚ on + thelium‚ surface). Epithelial tissue consists of cells attached to one another to form an uninterrupted layer of cells that separates the underlying tissues from the outside world. The body’s epithelium not only covers its obvious surfaces (such as the epidermis of the skin and the linings of respiratory‚ urinary‚ and digestive tracts) but also extends into all of the complex invaginations which form lungs‚ kidneys‚ sweat glands‚ digestive glands

(OI)‚ also known as brittle bone disease‚ is a genetic mutation. I chose Osteogenesis Imperfecta because I wanted to inform the people about the seriousness of this disease. People with this disease have weak bones due to a mutation affecting the collagen in the body. This causes people to have fragile bones‚ which will fracture easily. People may also be very short because of their weak bones. Types of this condition can be mild‚ it can also be very severe. This is a condition that needs to be diagnosed

Bacsafra COLLAGEN Collagen is a protein found abundantly throughout the bodies of animals‚ including humans. It is a very variable protein‚ forming the basis of many connective and support tissues. It is a fibrous structural protein‚ with a distinctive structure. In fact‚ collagen makes up about one-third of the total body weight. Its name is derived from the French word for glue. Collagen fibers‚ which resemble microscopic ropes‚ are flexible but resist stretching. These four types of collagen are
