Q
  • Squamous (flat)
  • Found in the lining of lungs, blood vessels, abdominal cavity, thoracic cavity, and lymphatic cells.
  • Allow for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the linings of the lungs and the capillaries of the lungs.

16
Q
  • Either cuboidal or rectangular
  • Only one thick layer, much thicker than squamous layer
  • Lines the digestive tract from the stomach to anal region
  • The main function is absorption of the break-down products within the digestive tract
A

SIMPLE CUBOIDAL/SIMPLE COLUMNAR EPITHELIUM

17
Q

Where are cuboidal cells found?

A

the ducts of various glands, such as kidneys, salivary glands, pancreas, and others.

18
Q

“falsely layers epithelium”

  • Seen in several areas of the body, MOST PROMINENT IN THE RESPIRATORY TRACT*
  • Has many goblet cells intermixed with the epithelium*
  • Secretes a mucous substance and lubricates the surface of the epithelium for a number of functions*
  • has cilia that traps contaminants in the air from passing through the respiratory passages*
A

PSEUDOSTRATIFIED COLUMNAR EPITHELIUM

19
Q

Three different layers of the stratified squamous epithelium:

A
  1. Stratum basale
  2. Stratum spinosum
  3. Stratum granulosum
20
Q

Stratified cuboidal/columnar epithelium:

A

Generally only found in forming large ducts of glands.

21
Q

Transitional epithelium

A

It changes in thickness and appearance as the need arises, multiple layers of cells and varying in thickness, & found in the urinary system

22
Q

Stratified squamous epithelium

A

!!MOST COMMON!!

As skin covers it the body and also makes up the mucosa of the oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus, and anal region.

23
Q

What are the different layers of the stratified squamous epithelium?????

A
  1. stratum basale
  2. stratum spinosum
  3. stratum granulosum
  4. stratum corneum
24
Q

Three different situations that can be seen in the stratum corneum layer?

A

non-karatinized
para-keratinized
keratinized

25
Q

whose products carried away by ducts leading from the gland

A

exocrine glands

26
Q

whose ducts are lost after the gland develops and whose products are carried away from the gland in the bloodstream

A

endocrine glands

27
Q

What glands are an example of exocrine glands?

A

salivary glands

28
Q

Salivary glands producing the following types of secretions:

A
  1. Serous secretion
  2. Mucous secretion
  3. Seromucous secretion
29
Q

a thin watery substance containing most of the digestive enzymes found in saliva

A

Serous Secretion

30
Q

a thicker, more viscous substance

A

Mucous secretion

31
Q

produced by may of the glands that have both serous and mucous cells, in varying quantities within the same gland

A

Seromucous secretion

32
Q

outer layer of the epithelial cells

A

ectoderm

33
Q

inner layer of epithelial cells

A

entoderm

34
Q

middle layer of epithelial cells

A

mesoderm

35
Q

Varies in its number of cell rows from two or three to ten or more

A

Stratum spinosum

36
Q

Evident in thick skin and appears as two or three layers of flattened cells that contain granules or spots within their cytoplasm

A

Stratum granulosum

37
Q

single layers of cuboidal cells that rests in the basement membrane. Cells divide and form more cells to maintain the supply and replace the cells that are lost

A

Stratum basale
