What is the location and function of this tissue ?
What is this tissue ?
single layer of flattened cells with flattened nucleus. Thin layer so it is fragile and allows for diffusion
Location: lung air sacs, blood vessels
Function: exchange of gases by diffusion
Simple squamous epithelium
What type of tissue ?
What is the location?
What is the function?
Simple cuboidal epithelium
Location: kidney tubules
Function: secretion and absorption
single layer of columnar cells of varying height, resulting in nuclei at various heights
Location: inner lining of the trachea
Function: secretion of mucus
Pseudostratified columnar epithelium
single layer of columnar cells of varying height, resulting in nuclei at various heights
Location: inner lining of the trachea
Function: secretion of mucus
Pseudostratified columnar epithelium
I
Location: skin, mouth, esophagus, vagina
Function: physical protection against wear and friction
Stratified squamous epithelium
Location: between organs.
• Function: fills in spaces, anchors tissues
Areolar (loose) connective tissue
- contains dark spongy reticular fibers.
• Location: lymph organs such as the lymph node and spleen.
• Function: forms the internal spongy framework
Reticular connective tissue
