Protected regions where absorption takes place

Ex: Kidneys, Lungs, Heart

Simple Squamous Epithelium

Figure 4.4a

Limited protection where absorption/secretion happens

Ex: Pancreas, Salivary Glands

Simple Cuboidal Epithelium

Figure 4.4b

Some protection, absorb, secrete Ex: Stomach, Intestines

Simple Columnar Epithelium

Figure 4.4c

All cells touch basement membrane Nuclei at different places Looks layered Have cilia Ex: Nasal cavity, Trachea, Bronchi

Pseudostratified Epithelium

Figure 4.5a

Able to stretch Contain more than one shape of cells Ex: Bladder

Transitional Epithelium

Mode of Secretion Merocrine Glands Produces mucus Lubricates, Barrier, Perspiration

Glandular Epithelium
