Description of simple columnar epithelium |
Single layer of tall cells with round to oval nuclei, some cells Cilia, layer may contain mucus secreting unicellular glands (goblet cells) |
|
|
Function of simple columnar epithelium |
Absorption; secretion of mucus, Amazon's, and other substances; collated type propels mucus (or reproductive cells) by ciliary action |
|
|
Location of simple columnar epithelium |

Description of stratified squamous epithelium cells |
Thick membrane composed of several cell lares. Basal cells are cuboidal or columnar and metabolically active. Surface cells are flattened squamous, in the keatinized type, the surface cells are full of keratin and dead ; basal cells are active in mitosis and produce the cells of the more superficial layers |
|
|
Function of stratified squamous epithelium |
Protects underlying tissue in areas subjected to abrasion |
|
|
Location of stratified squamous epithelium |
Nonkeratinized type forms the moist lining of the esophagus, mouth, and vagina; keratinized variety forms epidermis up the skin, a dry membrane |
