Epithelial Tissues

3. extracellular layer connecting to epithelium to connective tissue
6. Multiple layers that are flat at the apical surface and more rounded shaped near the basement membrane
7. secretion of products that leave the body; examples sweat and salivary
9. single row of cube like cells; functions in secretion and absorption; found in thyroid gland and kidneys
10. single row of rectangular shaped cells with a nucleus near the base; may be ciliated; functions in secretion/absorption
12. One layer of flat-pancake like cells found where filtration and diffusion occurs such as in the lungs
13. secretion of products that leave the body; examples sweat and salivary
15. Cells that change shape from cube to flat; found in bladder; can stretch and return to normal size
16. cells-cube-like cells that have a rounded centrally located nucleus; function in secretion and absorption
17. Microscopic finger-like projections that increase the surface area of a cell

1. cell surface that faces the body surface, cavity, or duct
2. modified columnar epithelia cells that secrete mucus (cup shaped)
4. cells- arranged like thin floor likes with a pancake-shaped nucleus
5. secretion of products that are used in the bloodstream and transported through the body; hormones
8. cells much taller than they are wide; apical surface may have cilia or vili; function in secretion and absorption
11. “appearance” of several layers; may secrete mucus; may have cilia
14. lack of blood supply
