Several types of tissues are involved in the propulsion of substances:
- Smooth Muscle Tissue: Found in the walls of hollow organs, smooth muscle tissue plays a primary role in propulsion through involuntary contractions. - Epithelial Tissue: This tissue lines the lumen of organs and ducts and may have specializations like cilia to aid in movement. - Connective Tissue: Provides structural support and elasticity, facilitating the movement of substances.
