Lines heart, blood vessels, air sacs of lungs, glomerular capsule of kidneys, and inner surface of the tympanic membrane (eardrum)
forms epithelial layer of serous membranes (such as peritoneum) |
|
|
Location: Stratified Squamous Epithelium
|
Keratinized: forms superficial layer of skin
Non Keratinized: lines wet surfaces (ex: lining of mouth, esophagus, vagina) |
|
|
Location: Simple Cuboidal Epithelium
|
Covers surface of ovary, lines anterior surface of capsule of the lens of the eye, forms pigmented epithelium at back of the eye, lines kidney tubules, makes secreting portion of some glands
|
|
|

subcutaneous (located or placed just beneath the skin) layer deep to skin, papillary region of dermis of skin, lamina propria of mucous membranes and around blood vessels, nerves and body organs
|
|
|
Location: Simple Columnar Epithelium
|
lines the gastrointestinal tract from the stomach to the anus, ducts of many glands and the gall bladder
|
|
|
Location: Adipose C.T
|
subcutaneous (located or placed just beneath the skin) layer deep to skin, around heart and kidneys, yellow bone marrow and padding around joints and behind eyeball in eye socket
|
|
|
Location: Ciliated pseudostratified epithelium

|
lines urinary bladder and portions of ureter and urethra
|
|
|
Location: Dense Regular C.T
|
Forms tendons, most ligaments, and aponeuroses
|
|
|
Function: Simple Squamous Epithelium
|
Filtration, diffusion, osmosis and secretion
|
|
