Does endothelium provide a slick surface lining on all hollow cardiovascular organs?
Yes.
What is the function of the corneal endothelium?
The corneal endothelium governs fluid and solute transport across the posterior surface of the cornea and actively maintains the cornea in the slightly dehydrated state that is required for optical transparency.

Why blood does not clot in circulation?
I. Endothelial surface factors- a) Smoothness of endothelial surface,which prevents contact activation of intrinsic system. b) Layer of glycocalyx on endothelium. c) a protein bound with the endothelium membrane, thrombomodulin, which binds thrombin. II. Antithrombin action of fibrin & Antithrombin-III a) when a clot is forming, about 85-90% of thrombin becomes adsorbed to fibrin fibers. b) some thrombin 10-15%, combines with antithrombin-III, which urther blocks effect of thrombin on fibrinogen. III. Heparin- heparin is a highly negatively charged conjugated polysaccharide.
