This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: 01 Epithelial Cells, Basement Membrane is avascular, in a column then it is columnar, Epithelial Cells functions I, simple epithelium example simple cuboidal epithelium (diffusion, secretion, absorption), shape of the cell can be in a column, Epithelial Cells functions P, stretchable examples bladder, Epithelial Cells functions F, stratified squamous epithelium (water resistant barrier - skin) examples moist stratified squamous epithelium, shape of the cell can be flat, Epithelial Cells 3 layer structure Basement Membrane, S is for sensation, non-epithelial tissue below the epithelial tissue supplies nutrients, secretion such as Glandular Epithelium, skin free surface cells are dead, stratified epithelium examples stratified squamous epithelium (water resistant barrier - skin), Epithelial Cells functions A, P is for protection, stratified squamous epithelium (water resistant barrier - skin) examples skin, several layers naming considerations can have mixed cell shapes, so the shape closest to the surface is used in naming
