What epithelium tissue would be found lining the ducts that drain sweat glands?
Simple cuboidal
What layer of the digestive tract is composed of stratified and columnar epithelium?
mucosa
What are the types of epithelium?
Epithelial Cells of the pulmonary surface, and the epithelial duct elements of Glands; Ciliary epithelium, esophageal, germinal {of Ovaries}, glandular and membranous; The Cornea, larynx, nasopharynx, small intestine, stomach, olfactory, and pigments of the Retina; and Central to All is the Lining Of Capillary Branches. As well, here are the rest: Pseudostratified, seminiferous, simple, simple columnar, simple cubical, simple cuboidal, simple squamous, stratified, stratified columnar, stratified cuboidal, stratified squamous, surface - of stomach - , and transitional.
What type of cells are rectangular?
Epithelial cells take three different shapes. The first is squamous, flattened like pancakes. The second is cuboidal, or cube-shaped. The third is column-shaped, or columnar.
Where do we find the cuboidal epithelium?
* Simple Cuboidal Epithelium. As their name implies, cuboidal cells are roughly square or cuboidal in shape. Each cell has a spherical nucleus in the centre. Cuboidal epithelium is found in glands and in the lining of the kidney tubules as well as in the ducts of the glands. They also constitute the germinal epitheliumwhich produces the egg cells in the female ovary and the sperm cells in the male testes.
What type of tissue is a sweat gland composed of?
"its in the protista family"not true. glands are composed of glandular epithelial tissue and lined with either simple or stratified cuboidal epithelium. glands lined with stratified cuboidal epithelium include: mammary, sweat, and salivary glands and the pancreas.
What kind of epithelium is in the epidermis?
stratified squamous epithelial and simple cuboidal epethilium.
What are six kinds of epithelium?
There are 8 types; simple squamous, simple columnar, simple cuboidal, stratified squamous, stratified cuboidal, stratified columnar, pseudostratified columnar, and transitional.
What kind of epithelial tissue is characterized by being only one cell layer thick?
Simple For example, simple cuboidal epithelium A layered version would be Stratified cuboidal epithelium
What epithelium tissue would be found lining the ducts that drain sweat glands?
Simple cuboidal
Type of epithelial tissue is likely to be found on the palm of the hand?
Anywhere on the body that is subject to a lot of friction like the palm of the hand is going to be made up of stratified squamous epithelium which has multiple layers that can wear off. palmar aponeurosis a thickening of the deep fascia covering the palm of the hand. palmar aponeurosis is composed of very dense connective tissue that extends out into each of the fingers.
How does stratified squamous epithelium differ structurally from stratified squamous epithelia?
Transitional epithelium contains cells that are flattened and cells that are cuboidal; hence the name "transitional". Stratified squamous is different from transitional epithelium since the shape of the individual cell is more hexagonal and contains flattened cells. Transitional epithelium have the capacity to stretch and flatten.
What layer of the digestive tract is composed of stratified and columnar epithelium?
mucosa
What kind of tissue lines the insides of your cheeks?
Stratified Squamous Epithelium
How does transitional epithelium differs structurally from other stratified squamous epithelium?
Transitional epithelium contains cells that are flattened and cells that are cuboidal; hence the name "transitional". Stratified squamous is different from transitional epithelium since the shape of the individual cell is more hexagonal and contains flattened cells. Transitional epithelium have the capacity to stretch and flatten.
What multilayered epithelium with cuboidal basal cells and flat cells at its surface would be classified as?
Multiple cell layers whose apical cells are flattened are stratified squamous. These are epithelial cells arranged in layers upon a basal membrane.
How does transitional epithelium structure differ from stratified squamous epithelia?
Transitional epithelium contains cells that are flattened and cells that are cuboidal; hence the name "transitional". Stratified squamous is different from transitional epithelium since the shape of the individual cell is more hexagonal and contains flattened cells. Transitional epithelium have the capacity to stretch and flatten.
