Difference between Epithelium and Mammary gland

Epithelium vs. Mammary gland

Epithelium is one of the four basic types of animal tissue, along with connective tissue, muscle tissue and nervous tissue. A mammary gland is an exocrine gland in mammals that produces milk to feed young offspring.

Similarities between Epithelium and Mammary gland

Epithelium and Mammary gland have 12 things in common (in Unionpedia): Basement membrane, Endothelium, Epithelium, Exocrine gland, Extracellular matrix, Human skin, Lumen (anatomy), Mammary gland, Organ (anatomy), Pulmonary alveolus, Sweat gland, Tight junction.

Basement membrane

The basement membrane is a thin, fibrous, extracellular matrix of tissue that separates the lining of an internal or external body surface from underlying connective tissue in metazoans.

Endothelium

Endothelium refers to cells that line the interior surface of blood vessels and lymphatic vessels, forming an interface between circulating blood or lymph in the lumen and the rest of the vessel wall.

Pulmonary alveolus

A pulmonary alveolus (plural: alveoli, from Latin alveolus, "little cavity") is a hollow cavity found in the lung parenchyma, and is the basic unit of ventilation.

Sweat gland

Sweat glands, also known as sudoriferous or sudoriparous glands,, are small tubular structures of the skin that produce sweat.

Tight junction

Tight junctions, also known as occluding junctions or zonulae occludentes (singular, zonula occludens) are multiprotein junctional complex whose general function is to prevent leakage of transported solutes and water and seals the paracellular pathway.
