Most organs of the human body contain all four (4) tissue types working together to allow the organ to perform its specific function. From the image of the respiratory tract below: (1) indicate with arrows where those four tissue types may be found and name them next to the arrows in that section of the tract. (2) Briefly describe the functions of the four tissue types. In your answer you must include a unique structural feature of each tissue type that allows it to perform this function. (e.g., in the stomach, specialised epithelial cells secrete HCl acid for digestion).
