Question	Answer
Names this Epithelium: Typical Locations: Sweat gland ducts, large ducts of exocrine glands, anorectal junction. Major function: barrier, conduit	Stratified Cuboidal Epithelium (rare)
Name this Epithelium: Typical Locations: Largest ducts of exocrine glands, anorectal junction. Major Function: barrier, conduit	Stratified Columnar Epithelium (very rare w/ visible goblet cells)
Name this Epithelium: Typical Locations: Trachea and bronchial tree, ductus deferens, efferent ductules of epididymis Major Function: secretion, conduit, absorption, conduit	Pseudostratified Epithelia (** special: Nuclei are present at diff heights. Goblet cells intermingle w/ ciliated cells. All cells contact basement membrane)
In this type of epithelium, cells are both long and short, nuclei are present at diff heights, goblet cells intermingle w/ ciliated lining cells, and all of the cells contact the basement membrane	Pseudostratified Ciliated Columnar Epithelium
This epithelial tissue covers and lines internal organs. It also has "fried egg" appearance when viewed w/ a micrograph.	Simple squamous epithelium
Name this Epithelium: Typical Locations: Epidermis (keratinized), oral cavity and esophagus (non-keratinized), vagina. Major Function: Barrier and protection	Stratified Squamous Epithelia (non-keratinized surface cells are still living)
Name this Epithelium: Typical Locations: small ducts and glands, surface of ovary, kidney tubules, and thyroid follicles. Major Function: absorption, conduit, barrier, absorption, secretion	Simple Cuboidal Epithelia (Note: think "ducts and glands". Looks diff than SSE b/c typically has open spaces of gland b/w cells.
Name this Epithelium: Typical Locations: small intestine and colon, stomach lining and gastric glands, gallbladder. Major Function: absorption and secretion	Simple Columnar Epithelia
Epithelia can be names by the number of cell layers. ______ - a single cell layer ______ - two or more layers	Simple Stratified

All blood vessels are lined with a simple squamous epithelium called _____?	Endothelium
The simple squamous epithelium that covers the body cavities is called ______?	Mesothelium
Epithelia can be names by the shape of the cells. _____ - flat cells _____ - cube-shaped cells _____ - rectangular cells	Squamous Cuboidal Columnar
Some epithelial cells lack a free surface and are called _____ tissues.	Epitheloid
Name this Epithelium: Typical Locations: vascular system (endothelium), body cavities (mesothelium), bowman's capsule (kindey), respiratory spaces in lung (alveoli). Major Function: exchange, barrier in CNS, lubrication.	Simple Squamous Epithelia ("fried egg shaped)
Epithelium is an _____ tissue that covers the body surfaces, lines body cavities, and forms the secretory portions of glands. The basal surface of epithelium is attached to a _____ _____.	Avascular Basement Membrane (epithelium created a selective barrier b/w the external environment and the underlying connective tissue).
Name this Epithelium: Typical Locations: renal calyces, ureters, bladder, urethra. Major Function: barrier, distensible property.	Transitional Epithelium (urothelium(Urinary Systems))
This epithelium is specialized to stretch.	Transitional Epithelium
Secretion is an epithelial function that is found in the _____ epithelial of the stomach and the ____ glands.	Columnar Epithelium Gastric Glands
Absorption is an epithelial function that can be found in the _____ epithelium of hte intestines and _____ epithelium of the _____ ______ tubules of the kidney.	Columnar Epithelium Cuboidal Epithelium Proximal Convoluted
The transport of materials or cells along the surface of an epithelium occurs by what?	Cilia
Protection is an epithelial function that occurs with the ____ ____ epithelium of the skin (epidermis).	Stratified Squamous Epithelium
To receive and transduce external stimuli, aka _____ function, is accomplished by the _____ ______ of the tongue, the ______ epithelium of the nasal mucosa, and hte ______ of the eye.	Receptor (function) Taste Buds Olfactory Retina
Epithelia involved in secretion or absorption are usually ______, or in some cases, ______.	Simple Pseudostratified
The type of epithelia compatible with a high rate of transepithelial transport is _____ _____ epithelia.	Simple Squamous
Stratification of epithelium usually correlates with _____ ______.	Transepithelial Impermeability
Some pseudostratified epithelia have _____ _____ cells that give rise to mature functional cells of the epithelium; a process that balances cell turnover.	Basal Stem Cells
Lateral derivatives of ______ are the serous membranes of pleura, pericardium, and peritoneum	Mesoderm
Epithelium of the trachea, bronchi, lungs, GI tract, liver, pancreas, urachus, pharynx, thyroid gland, tympanic cavity, pharyngotympanic tube, tonsils, and parathyroid gland all arise from what germ layer?	Endoderm
The 3 domains of epithelial cell polarity are the _____ domain or pole, the ____ domain or pole, and the _____ domain.	Apical Domain (faces a space) Basal Domain (faces conn. tissue) Lateral Domain (surface opposing another cell)
