Q

What is a single layer of cells touching the basement membrane

A

Simple epithelial tissue

17
Q

What does stratified mean

A

2 or more layers

18
Q

Name the three simple cell shapes

A

1.) squamous
2.) cuboibal
3.) columnar

19
Q

Name the tissue that has single flat cells with centrally located nucleus

A

Simple squamous

20
Q

What specific organ can you find simple squamous in

A

Lining of lumen of blood vessels or wall of bowman’s capsules in kidneys

21
Q

Name a function of simple squamous

22
Q

Single layer cube like cells

A

Simple cuboidal

23
Q

Where can you find simple cuboidal cells

A

Walls of kidney tubules, surface of ovaries

24
Q

What do the cuboidal cells do

A

Secret, reabsorption in tubules of kidney

25
Tall column like cells, single layer, nuclei is oval and near basement membrane
Columnar cells
26
Where can you find simple columnar cells
Lines lumen of uterine tubes, or lines lumen of gallbladder
27
What do columnar cells do
Secrete , absorb nutrients and water in intestines
28
What is the cells that differ in height, touches the basement membrane and have cilia, and nuclei sit in different spots
Pseudo stratified cilliated columnar
29
What does pseudo mean
False
30
Where can you find pseudo stratified cilliated columnar
Lining of trachea
31
What is the main function of pseudo stratified cilliated columnar
Trapping mucous secretion from goblet cells, cilia helps move trapped particles
32
Many layers of cells, cells become flatter near apical (skin),
Stratified squamous
33
Where can you find stratified squamous cells
Skin layer, lining of mouth,
34
What is the function of stratified squamous
Protection of abrasion, pathogens, and water loss
35
This looks like stratified squamous but have more visible nuclei, can go from very stacked to expanded and stacked
Transitional epithelial
36
Where can you find transitional epithelial
Lining of bladder
37
What is the function of transitional epithelial
Allows space to expand or contract as urine collects
