Epithelial cells are a type of cell that form the layers of epithelial tissue, which lines surfaces and cavities throughout the body. These cells play crucial roles in protection, absorption, secretion, and sensation. Epithelial cells can be classified into different types based on their shape (squamous, cuboidal, columnar) and the number of layers (simple or stratified). They are found in various organs, including the skin, respiratory tract, and gastrointestinal system.
