Task 2 -describe the four different tissue types. Epithelial tissue is a sheet of cells that covers a body surface or lines a body cavity. For example‚ epithelial tissue can be found in the stomach. There are two different types of epithelial tissue; simple and stratified. The simple epithelial has a single cell layer‚ whilst the stratified epithelial consist of two or more cell layers stacked on top of one another. They are tightly packed tissues and the two types can be seen in the image below
