Epithelium Types And Locations (still look at picutures of types)

Question 1

Simple Squamous epithelium (locations)

Answer 1

Mesothelium ( epithelial layer of serous membranes)
Alveoli ( air sacs of lungs)
Glomerular capsule (part of the filtration membrane in kidney)
Endothelium of capillaries

Question 2

Simple squamous epithelium (functions)!

Answer 2

Secretion of serous fluid into serous cavity
Single layer creates short distance for diffusion of 02 and CO2
Filtration of blood to form urine filtrate
DIFFUSION, SECRETION AND FILTRATION

Question 3

Simple cuboidal epithelium (location)

Answer 3

Walls of kidney tubules
Glands

Question 4

Simple cuboidal epithelium (functions)

Answer 4

Modify urine filtrate by ABSORPTION, of substances from the filtrate and SECRETION, of other substances into the filtrate

SECRETION, of products made but the simple cuboidal epithelial cells

Question 5

Non-ciliated simple columnar epithelium (locations)

Answer 5

Line of stomach and intestines
Lining of uterine tubes (ciliated)
Central canal of spinal cord (ciliated)

Question 6

Simple columnar epithelium (functions )

Answer 6

Secretion of digestive juices by epithelium cells and secretion of mucus by goblet cells, inside the small intestines the epithelial cells have microvilli ( increase surface area for absorption of nutrients)

Epithelial cells have cilia that help move the egg to the uterus

Ciliated epithelial cells move cerebrospinal fluid

Question 7

Nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium (locations )

Answer 7

Surface of the skin (keratinized stratified squamous epithelium)

Lining of the mouth, esophagus, anus and vagina (nonkeratinized)

Question 8

Nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium (functions)

Answer 8

Layer of skin that is a tough, dry, waterproof outer surface that forms a PROTECTIVE BARRIER

moist epithelial layer that forms a protective barrier in areas subject to abrasion and friction

Question 9

Relaxed urothelium TRANSITIONAL EPITHELIUM (locations)

Answer 9

Lining of unitary bladder, uterers, and parts of the urethra

Question 10

Relaxed urothelium TRANSITIONAL EPITHELIUM (functions)

Answer 10

Provides a protective barrier that permits distention

Question 11

Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium (locations)

Answer 11

Lining of nasal cavity, trachea, and bronchi ( CILIATED)

lines larger ducts of many glands, epididimis, and parts of the male urethra (NONCILIATED)

Question 12

Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium (functions)

Answer 12

SECRETION of mucus by goblet cells, the epithelial cells have cilia, which moves mucus toward the pharynx

Epithelial cells are involved in absorption, secretion, and protection

Question 13

Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium (functions)

Answer 13

SECRETION of mucus by goblet cells, the epithelial cells have cilia, which moves mucus toward the pharynx

Epithelial cells are involved in absorption, secretion, and protection
