Main goal of this note is to explain the basic concepts and
principles that govern the basic structure and function of each tissue. This
note will cover the microscopic anatomy of the basic tissues that comprise the
the human body, which are: epithelial tissues, connective tissues, including
blood, cartilage, and bone, muscle tissues, nerve tissues.
