Lab Exam 1 Flashcards
1
Q
Identify…
A
Simple Squamous Epithelium
- Found in lungs
- In the lungs this allows substances to diffuse rapidly - gas exchange
2
Q
Identify
A
Simple Cuboidal Epithelium
- Found in Kidneys
- There function is absorption and secretion. In the kidney they regulate ion exchange.
3
Q
Identify…
A
Simple Columnar Epithelium
- Lines the digestive tract (these would be non-ciliated), e.g. small intestine
- One of their functions is absorption of substances. Microvilli increase absorptive area.
4
Q
Identify…
A
Psuedostratified Columnar
- They are found in the trachea
- Secretion and propulsion of mucus, via ciliary action
5
Q
Identify…
A
Unkeratinized Stratified Squamous
- Found in the mouth
- It protects underlying tissue from abrasion
6
Q
Identify…
A
Transitional Epithelium
- Found in the urinary bladder
- It allows for distension of the organ
7
Q
Identify…
A
Skeletal Muscle
- Attached to Bone
- Its function is locomotion
