simple squamous epithelial tissue
Term
Which epithelial tissue makes up the outer (epidermis) layer of skin?
Definition

Term
Which epithelial tissue makes up capillaries?
Definition
simple squamous epithelial tissue
Term
What do goblet cells produce?
Definition

Definition
stratified squamous epithelial tissue (non-keratinized)
Term
What is the difference between keratinized and non-keratinized?
Definition
keratinized cells accumulate the protein keratin which causes them to harden and die; nonkeratinized cells do not accumulate keratin and thus do not harden and die
Term
What epithelial tissue lines uterine tubes?
Definition
simple columnar epithelial tissue (ciliated)

Term
Which epithelial tissue appears stratified but is one layer thick?
Definition
psuedostratified columnar epithelial tissue
Term
Why for question #28?
Definition
The cells are attached at the base but do not all reach the lumen and the nuclei are unevenly distributed which give the appearance of stratification
