A ciliated version of pseudostratified columnar epithelium containing mucus-secreting goblet cells … a.aids in digestion b.lines most of the respiratory tract c.is found in some of the larger glands  d.is more durable than all other epithelia

SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM a. What is the location and shape of nucleus within cell? Round, centrally located nucleus  Centrally located nucleus, flattened and oval or spherical oval nuclei near base of cells  appears to have several layers because nuclei of cells are at various levels b. When this tissue type lines the cardiovascular and lymphatic system, it is called what? endothelium mesothelium c. When this tissue forms the layer of serous membranes it is called what? mesothelium endothelium d. What other organs contain this tissue type? epididymis, ducts of glands, male urethra surface of ovaries and lens of eye; retina of eye; kidney tubules, ducts of glands air sacs of lungs, glomerular, capsule of kidneys, inner surface of tympanic membrane GI tracts, ducts of glands, gallbladder e. What is the function of this tissue? Protects against abrasion, water loss, UV radiation, foreign invasion, defense against microbes filtration or diffusion, and site of secretion in serous…

What is the stroma of the tissue present? a. Adipose Tissue b. Smooth Muscle c. Fibromuscular d. Dense regular connective tissue Loose irregular connective tissue

What are two critical functions of homeostasis that involve epithelia? Select all that apply.   A. gas exchange   B. control of pH   C. thermoregulation   D. production of hormones   E. cell hydration

Simple squamous epithelium would be found 1.at the surface of the skin 2. Lining the trachea 3. lining blood vessels 4. lining the stomach and small intestine 5. lining the urinary bladder

Name and briefly describe the three main structural elements of connective tissue.

Explain the consequences of having (a) nonkeratinized stratified epitheliumrather than simple columnar epithelium lining the digestive tract,(b) nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium rather than keratinizedstratified squamous epithelium in the skin, and (c) simple columnarepithelium rather than stratified squamous epithelium lining the mouth.

The structure in the lungs known as the respiratory membrane is where gases are exchanged- oxygen leaves the lungs and enters the blood, and carbon dioxide leaves the blood and enters the lungs. The respiratory membrane is composed of two extremely thin layers of simple squamous epithelium. Explain how the structure of the respiratory membrane follows its function.

The classification of epithelial and connective tissues is based on?
