Epithelial tissue forms the inner lining of the stomach, lungs, and blood vessels.
There are different types of epithelial tissue, distinguished by the different shapes of their constituent cells: squamous, cuboidal, and columnar.
Squamous (pavement) epithelium consists of flattened cells. There are multiple layers of this type of epithelium in human skin. It is protective in function.
Cuboidal epithelium is made up of cells shaped like cubes. It is found in the kidney, for example, and in involved in absorption and secretion. Columnar epithelium has tall cells. They occur, for example, in the small intestine, where they are involved in secreting digestive juices and absorbing the products of digestion.
