Microvilli folds of plasma membrane of moist epithelial tissue• Maximize surface area for absorption2. Cilia whiplike, motile extensions of cell surface; found in some locations• Movement of mucusHow might microvillar extensions from the apical surface of epithelial cells be advantageous to the cell?A. They allow the cell to move more easily through tissues.B. They allow for stronger attachment to the basal lamina.C. They thicken the plasma membrane to provide more protection.D. They increase the surface area to allow for the transport of more ions into the cell.8/26/20144Membranous vs Glandular epitheliumMembranous: majority of body coverings and linings (will focus on)Glandular: specialized epithelial tissue that produces glandular secretionsMAJOR DIFFERENCE?? LOCATION….Organization of an epithelial tissue directly related to the functionPrimary functions associated w/ epithelial tissues:• Protection• Absorption• Filtration• Diffusion• ChemoreceptionSkinSmall IntestineKidneyLungsNasal cavity (smell)What changes would you make to an epithelial tissue to allow for these different functions?Fig. 4.2a Classification of membranous epitheliaSIMPLE1 cell layer thickSTRATIFIED>1 cell layer thick8/26/20145Fig. 4.2b Classification of epitheliaFig. 4.2b Classificiation of epitheliaSQUAMOUS Flattened cellsCUBOIDALCube shaped cellsCOLUMNARTall cellsWhat would you expect a stratified cuboidal epithelium to look like?A. One layer of cube shaped cellsB. Multiple layers of cube shaped cellsC. One layer of flattened cellsD. Two layers of column shaped cellsE. Multiple layers of flattened cellsWhat would you call an epithelium that looked like this:A. Stratified columnar cuboidal squamousB. Simply stratifiedC. Stratified columnarD.

Stratified squamousBasement membraneApical surface8/26/20146Stratified epithelia are named by the cell shape found on the apical surfaceFig 4.3a Simple squamous epithelium• Single layer of flattened cells• Diffusion lungs• Filtration kidney• Secretion serous membranesFig. 4.3b Simple cuboidal epithelium• Single layer of cube shaped cells• Absorption kidney• Secretion some glands8/26/20147Fig. 4.3c Simple columnar epithelium• Single layer of tall cells• May or may not be ciliated….• Absorption GI tract• Movement ie of mucus (lungs)• Secretion mucusFig. 4.3d Pseudostratified columnar epithelium• Single layer of cells of varying height• ALL sit on basement membrane• Secretion & movement mucus of respiratory system• Usually ciliated….Stratified epithelia• 2 or more cell layers• Basal layer germinating layer• Apical layer oldest cells• Named by shape of apical layer of cells8/26/20148Fig. 4.3e Stratified squamous epithelium• Multiple cell layers, apical layer flat• Keratinized or non-keratinized• Protection skin, oral cavityFig. 4.3f Stratified cuboidal epithelium• Two layers cube shaped cells• Protection glandular ducts (iesalivary ducts)Fig. 4.3g Stratified columnar epithelium• Several cell layers; apical layer tall• Not common• Protection male urethra• Secretion some glands8/26/20149Fig. 4.3h Transitional epithelium• Multiple layers that change shape when stretched• Unique allows bladder to expand as it fills w/ urineTypes of glandsAll glands lined by an epithelium1. Endocrine: lack ducts, produce hormones which pass into surrounding tissues/blood vessels2.
