In areas subject to stretching such as urinary bladder.

Linning of the urinary bladder
nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium of the esophagus transitions to simple columnar epithelium of the stomach
epithelium or epithelial cells
simple squamus epithelium
Simple epithelium is found in the lining of the lungs, in capillary walls, and in blood vessels.
Simple squamous epithelium
Epithelium is a layer of animal tissue. It can be found in the lining of certain organs and glands in the body.
This type of epithelium is frequently found in glands, and the pancreas, where its function is secretion.
psuedostratified ciliated columnar epithelial cells and goblet cells
Transitional epithelium cells can stretch. They can be found in organs that have the ability to stretch such as the bladder.
depends on the type of epithelium. I'm assuming you are asking about stratified squamous epithelium as that is the most common type. It is found in areas of the body that are subjected to a lot of stress (environmental, mechanical) such as the skin, the anus, the oropharynx, and the vagina. Stratified columnar epithelium is found throughout the GI tract.
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.
