SIMPLE CUBOIDAL
What
Where
Functions
Single layer of web shaped cells with central nuclei.
Kidneys, salivary glands, pancreas, lungs
Secretion, absorption
SIMPLE COLUMNAR What Where Function Cilitaded Goblet Cells
Single layer of elongated cells whose nuclei are placated near the basement membrane.
Fallopian tubes, stomach, intestines
Secretes digestive enzymes, absorbers nutrients.
For movement of substances
Secrete mucus onto the free surface.
PSEUDO-STRATIFIED COLUMNAR What Where Function Cilia
Appears layered due to the positions of their nuclei within the row of cells, but are not truly layered.
Respiratory passage.
Protection, moves mucus.
May be present, along with mucus secreting goblet cells.
STRATIFIED SQUAMOUS
What
Where
Function
Layers of flattened cells
Epidermis, mouth, throat, esophagus
Protects underlying layers
Glands that secrete products into tissue fluids and blood
Endocrine.
GLANDULAR EP.
What
Made up of cells designed to produce and secrete substances into ducts or into body fluids.
Glands that secrete products into that open onto a surface.
Exocrine
TRANSITIONAL EP
What
Where
Function
Specialized t change in response to increases tension.
Inner bladder
Organ contracts, tissue consists of several layers of cuboidal cells— prevents diffusion of contents back into internal environments.
Has abundant extra cellular matrix between them and have good blood supplies.
Connective tissues.
