Epithelial tissues form the covering of all body surfaces, line body cavities and hollow organs, and are the major tissue in glands.

Detailed explanation-2: -Simple tissues are made up of a single and similar type of cell. Some simple tissues in plants include parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma. Simple tissues are the tissues that comprise cells which are structurally and functionally similar, that is, they are made up of only a single type of cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -Epithelial tissues act as coverings controlling the movement of materials across the surface.
