Endothelium - ANSWER: Epithelial tissue of the blood vessels and lymphatic vessels
Simple cuboidal epithelium function and location in the body. - ANSWER: Absorption and Secretion (Kidney
tubules, smallest ducts of glands)
Simple columnar epithelium function and location in the body. - ANSWER: Absorption and secretion (Digestive
system)
Pseudostratified columnar epithelium function and location in the body. - ANSWER: Secretion or absorption
(Ciliated version found in respiratory tract)
Stratified Squamous epithelium function and location in the body. - ANSWER: Widespread (epidermis)
Stratified Cuboidal epithelium - ANSWER: ducts of larger glands like mammary and sweat
Basement Membrane Function - ANSWER: Supports epithelial cells, allows new cells to migrate over basement
membrane. Keeps things in the right place
