Document Summary

Nervous epithelium : - protective covering of surfaces inside + Covers surfaces + forms glands (cid:8869) skin , linings , 1- blood vessels , linings of body cavities. Capable of regeneration basement membrane : - attached to basal surface. Formed by secretions of epithelium and connective tissue. Pseudostratified appears stratified (cid:8869) (cid:8869) all cells contact basement membrane shape of cells on apical surface : - squamous (cid:8869) flat , scale - like. Cuboidal (cid:8869) equal in height and width. Secretion + absorption stratified : - protection against abrasion pseudo stratified : - modified simple cells. Secrete or move mucus squamous : - diffusion / filters cuboidal and columnar : - secretion / absorption. Goblet cells : produce + secrete mucus simple squamous simple squamous. Lining of blood vessels (endothelium) , alveoli in lungs , Bowman "s capsule of kidney , lining of serous membranes. Diffusion , filtration , secretion simple cuboidal simple cuboidal.
