Question

Types of compound epithelium tissue

Answer 1

There is many

Stratified columnar

Stratified squamous keratinised/non keratinised

Stratified cuboidal

Transistional

Answer 2

Here is ur answer:

1. Simple squamous epithelium

consist of a single layer of flattened cells

Margin of squamous cells are irregular

Occur as tiles on a floor, also known as pavement epithelium

Comprises lining of body cavity, cardiovascular and lymphatic systems,

surface of coelom, buccal cavity, nasal cavity, alveolar lining of lungs lung and bowman’s capsule of kidneys (gas and liquid exchange)

Function = protection, absorption, diffusion and filtration

2. Simple cuboidal epithelium

-consists of a single layer of cells that are roughly square in shape when cut in cross-section. Each cell has a spherical nucleus in the centre

forms lining many ducts and tubules of the body.

Functions of secretion and absorption e.g. kidney

Cuboidal epithelium is commonly found in secretive or absorptive tissue: for example;

(secretive); exocrine gland the pancreas.

(absorptive); lining of the kidney tubules.

in the ducts of the glands.

germinal epithelium; lining of ovary and testis.

3. Simple columnar epithelium

Cells are elongated and column-shaped. Their nuclei are elongated and are usually located near the base of the cells.

Columnar epithelium is found in the following:

The lining of the stomach and intestines.

Some columnar cells are specialized for sensory reception such as in the nose, ears and the taste buds of the tongue.

Also have surface modifications such as cilia and microvilli and

Goblet cells (unicellular glands) are found between the columnar epithelial cells of the duodenum.

Function: secretion and absorption.

4. Pseudo-stratified epithelium:

These are simple columnar epithelial cells whose nuclei appear at different heights, giving the misleading (hence “pseudo“) impression that the epithelium is stratified when the cells are viewed in cross section.

Found in lining of respiratory tract, urinary tract, vas deferentia, epididymis

Pseudo-stratified epithelium also possess fine hair-like extensions of their apical (luminal) membrane called cilia. In this case, the epithelium is described as “ciliated” pseudostratified epithelium.

Ciliated epithelium is found in the:

Airways (nose, trachea and bronchi).

Uterus and Fallopian tubes of females.
