GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Epithelial membranes are formed from epithelial tissue attached to a layer of connective tissue. There are three types of epithelial membranes: mucous, which contain glands; serous, which secrete fluid; and cutaneous which makes up the skin.

Detailed explanation-2: -Epithelium, endothelium and mesothelium are three types of epithelial cell layers that line your internal organs, body cavities and form the outer layer of your skin.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are many different types of anatomical membranes. Epithelial membranes are thin structures made up of epithelium and underlying connective tis-sue. They cover body surfaces and line body cavities. There are four types of membranes: serous, mucous, cutaneous, and synovial.

Detailed explanation-4: -Mucous membranes line the digestive, respiratory, urinary, and reproductive tracts. They are coated with mucous gland secretions. Serous membranes line body cavities closed to the exterior of the body: the pericardial, peritoneal and pleural cavities. These membranes are thin and help to reduce friction.
