A

1 Layer of cells. All cells touch basement membrane

40
Q

Stratified Epithelial Properties

A

More than 1 layer. Cells rest of each other. Do NOT touch basement membrance

41
Q

Globlet Cells

A

Mucus secreting cells in the simple columnar and pseudo-stratified epithelial

42
Q

Simple Squamous Epithelium

A

Single Row of Think Cells. Permits rapid diffusion. Secretes Serous Fluid. (Found in Kidneys/Lungs)

45
Q

Pseudo stratified Epithelium

A

Looks multi-layered. W/ Cilia and Goblet Cells (Found in respiratory tract)

46
Q

Stratified Epithelia

A

Range from 2-20 layers of cells. Deepest layers go under mitosis.
