Summary Introduction
To explain: The effects of losing epithelium due to chemical burn on body and its ability to function.
Introduction: A group of closely related cells forms tissues. These cells are specific in nature and perform specialized functions. Animal tissues are classified under four main categories that are epithelial tissue, connective tissue, nervous tissue, and muscle tissue. All these tissues are made up of cells, which are specific in size, shape, and structure. Each kind of tissue performs a specialized function.
