Epithelium: classification by layers
Simple: 1 cell layer thick
- Squamous: thin,flat, irregular fish-scale shaped
- Cubodial: square
- Columnar: rectangular (higher than wider)
- Transitional: basal layers cuboidal or columnar, surface layers often squamous
Stratified: more than 1 layer
- Squamous: thin, fish-scale shaped
- Keratinized : epidermis in skin
- Nonkeratinized: lines wet cavities ( mouth, esophagus, vagina, surface layer of living cells (retain nucleii) NOCRNEAL EPITHELUM
- Cuboidial: Square
- Columnar: rectangular( higher than wider)
- Transitional: basal layers cuboidal or columnar, surface layers often squamous
- Squamous: thin, fish-scale shaped
Pseudostratified: appears stratified, but all cells touch the basement membrane
