simple squamous epithelium
Simple, squamous epithelium which makes it easy for respiratory gases to diffuse across.
The serous membrane is composed of 2 thin linings. The inter lining, which directly covers the organ, is called the visceral membrane. Over the visceral is the parietal membrane. In between the two is a cushioning fluid. The serous membrane resembles a balloon (visceral) inside another balloon (parietal) with fluid between them.
stratified squamous epithelium
Tunica Intima is the innermost layer of the wall of the artery. The wall is consist of simple squamous epithelium which is called endothelium.
Stratified = layered; Epithelium = exterior, as compared to mesothelium or endothelium; Squamous = are flattened cells, obvious to be layered: need help/input/please,
These are usually simple squamous epithelial cells. The epithelium lining the body cavities is called the mesothelium and is where the cancer mesothelioma arises from. The epithelium lining arteries and veins is called endothelium.
Squamous epithelium is also called as the pavement epithelium.
The innermost layer of epithelial cells of a blood vessel is called endothelium.
simple squamous epithelium
Simple, squamous epithelium which makes it easy for respiratory gases to diffuse across.
Simple squamous which is only one cell layer think, and stratified squamous which is composed of multiple layers. The best way to remember is to think that to squash something is to flatten it and squash and squamous are similar words.
This is called metaplasia.
The serous membrane is composed of 2 thin linings. The inter lining, which directly covers the organ, is called the visceral membrane. Over the visceral is the parietal membrane. In between the two is a cushioning fluid. The serous membrane resembles a balloon (visceral) inside another balloon (parietal) with fluid between them.
stratified squamous epithelium
it is called Endothelium (endothelial layer) composed of simple squamous epithelium forming a countinuous barrier.
Squamous epithelium supported by sparse connective tissue is called a membrane.
