18. Know how to identify simple squamous epithelium, simple cuboidal epithelium, simple columnar epithelium, and stratified squamous epithelium in an image of a microscope slide. Name at least one location in the body where each specific tissue listed above is found. 19. What is the function of goblet cells? In which tissue listed above did you ob
Histology
Histology is the microanatomy method and a branch of biology that studies the anatomy of tissues. It includes viewing tissue in a magnified view under the microscope. Microanatomy also includes the process of study of organs called organology and the study of cells called cytology. Histopathology is a branch of biology that includes microscopic identification of diseased tissue. The field of histology comprises the preparation of the tissues and collection of cells as specimens for examination under the microscope. These processes are done by technicians like histologists, histotechnicians, and biomedical scientists. Histopathology is the diagnosis and research of tissue diseases that require the examination of tissues and/or cells under a microscope. Histopathologists are in charge of determining tissue diagnosis and assisting clinicians in managing a patient's care.
Endocrine System
Human body functions due to the collective work of the organ systems. One of them is the endocrine system. It is a chemical messenger system constituting the hormones directly released by the endocrine glands into the circulatory system. The study of this system is known as endocrinology. The word 'endon' means inside, and 'crine' means secrete, making the word "endocrine."

18. **Identification of Epithelial Tissues**
- Learn how to distinguish simple squamous, cuboidal, and columnar epithelial tissues, as well as stratified squamous epithelium on a microscope slide.
- Identify at least one location in the body for each of the tissues mentioned.
19. **Goblet Cells Functionality**
- Understand the role of goblet cells and the specific tissues in which they are present.
- Develop skills to identify goblet cells on a microscope slide.
20. **Characteristics of Connective Tissues**
- Grasp the general attributes shared by all connective tissues, including the substantial amount of intercellular space called matrix. This matrix can be liquid or rigid, containing fibers like collagen and elastin.
21. **Functions of Connective Tissue**
- Describe the various roles that connective tissue performs in the body.
22. **Areolar Connective Tissue**
- Investigate areolar connective tissue as a type of loose connective tissue.
- Identify the types of cells and fibers present, their functions, locations, and how to recognize this tissue under a microscope.
23. **Adipose Tissue Characteristics**
- Examine adipose tissue as another form of loose connective tissue.
- Identify the cell types, typical locations, functions, and how to distinguish adipose tissue on slides.
24. **Dense Irregular Connective Tissue**
- Differentiate dense irregular connective tissue from loose connective tissue.
- Discuss the predominant cell and fiber types, locations, functions, and identification methods on a slide.
**Exercise 8: Understanding the Integumentary System**
25. **Integumentary System Functions**
- Enumerate and describe the key functions of the integumentary system.
26. **Epidermis, Dermis, and Hypodermis Identification**
- Learn to identify the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis (subcutaneous layer) on a microscope slide and a skin model.
- Understand which specific tissues are found in each layer (e.g., adipose tissue predominantly found in the hypodermis).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F39ff0b3c-cffc-4a7f-891d-49008437c820%2Fc6692e6b-9246-415e-aeea-e491d56d302f%2F6umpjw_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
