Pericardial cavity - correct answer Potential space between the visceral pericardium
and the parietal pericardium
middle ear cavities - correct answer Cavity containing the incus, malleus, stapes
Pleural cavities (lungs) - correct answer Cavities (right and left) that are the potential
space between the parietal and visceral pleural membranes
Abdominopelvic cavity - correct answer Cavity that extends from the diaphragm to the
floor of the pelvis; includes stomach, liver, spleen, gallbladder, small and large
intestines, urinary bladder, and reproductive organs
Peritoneal cavity - correct answer Cavity that is the potential space between the
parietal and visceral peritoneal membranes
Pleural membranes (parietal is the outside layer that lines the cavity, visceral is the
inside layer, covering the lung) - correct answer Body cavity membrane: which is a
serous membrane that lines the lungs
Pericardial (parietal is the outside layer which lines the mediastinum, visceral is the
inside layer, covering the heart) - correct answer Body cavity membrane: which
serous membrane lines the heart?

basement membrane - correct answer What nonliving membrane anchors epithelium
to underlying connective tissue?
true - correct answer T/F Epithelial cells lack blood vessels, so they are supplied by
underlying connective tissues
protection, secretion, absorption, and excretion - correct answer Functions of
epithelial tissue
simple squamos - correct answer Which type of epithelial tissue is a single layer of
thin, flattened cells that is thin and delicate, easily damaged?
diffusion and filtration - correct answer Simple squamos tissue is common at sites
where _ and _ occur, since substances pass through easily.
Simple squamos - correct answer Alveoli, walls of capillaries, inside the blood and
lymph vessels, and membrane coverings in the cavities is where you can find this type
of epithelial tissue.
Simple cuboidal - correct answer Which type of epithelial tissue is a single layer of
cube-shaped cells?
Simple cuboidal - correct answer Which type of epithelial tissue lines follicles of
thyroid gland, covers ovaries, lines kidney tubules, and ducts of glands (salivary
glands, pancreas, and liver)?
tubular secretion, tubular reabsorption, and secretes glandular products - correct
answer Simple cuboidal cells function in _ and _ and _
Simple columnar - correct answer Which type of epithelial tissue is either ciliated or
nonciliated single layer of elongated cells, which form a good protective layer?
portions of the GI tract - correct answer Nonciliated simpl ecolumnar cells are found
where?
secreting digestive fluids, absorbing nutrients, as microvilli for absorption, and as
goblet cells that secrete mucus onto free surfaces (excretion) - correct answer

pseudostratified columnar - correct answer Which type of epithelial tissue appears
stratified, but isn't, and is commonly ciliated?
lining of the respiratory system, and the cilia that sweep away the mucus that goblet
cells create. - correct answer Examples of pseudostratified columnar tissue is...
Stratified squamos - correct answer Type of epithelial tissue that is very thick and
made up of many layers, that makes up the epidermis (skin)?
In the lining of the oral cavity, esophagus, vagina, and anal canal - correct answer
Where else is stratified squamos tissue found?
keratin - correct answer Protein that produces a covering of dry, protective material
that prevents water and other substances from escaping and microorganisms from
entering the epidermis
Stratified cuboidal - correct answer This type of epithelial tissue has multiple layers of
cuboidal cells that form the lining of a lumen (space within a tube)
Lines larger ducts of mammary glands, sweat glands, salivary glands, pancreas,
developing ovaries, seminiferous tubules - correct answer Stratified cuboidal is found
where?
Stratified columnar - correct answer Which type of epithelial tissue is several layers of
columnar cells, in which the superficial cells are elongated and the basal cells are
cuboidal?
Lines part of the male urethra and ductus deferens and parts of the pharynx - correct
answer Stratified columnar tissue is found where?
Transitional - correct answer Type of epithelial tissue that is specialized to change in
response to increased tension. It lines the urinary bladder and prevents the contents
of the bladder from diffusing back into the internal environment.
Glandular - correct answer Tissue that is specialized to produce and secrete
substances into ducts or body fluids
columnar and cuboidal - correct answer Glandular cells are usually found within
which two types of epithelium?
