The pillar-like epithelial cells cover the finger-like projections (villi) of the intestinal surface. Observe the variation in appearance of the epithelial layer which is caused by different angles of cutting (refer to p. 6 of the lab manual).

Several features characterize epithelial tissue and distinguish it from connective tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue. 1  Epithelial tissue covers surfaces with an uninterrupted layer of cells.pithelial tissue is one of the four basic tissue types.
