Regarding epithelial tissue, answer the following questions;
(a) In general, which junctions are found in epithelial cells of the skin, where is their
location on the cell and what is their function?
(b) Describe how collagen fibrils attach to epithelial cells? Name any proteins that are
involved?
What physiological functions are enhanced by the presence of microvilli or cilia on epithelial cells?
Epithelial sheets are classified by their number of cell layers and their cell shape. In the following table, draw simplified illustrations of the eight classifications. In each illustration, identify the cells, nuclei, and basement membrane. For the stratified epithelia, you only need to draw two or three cell layers, as shown in the stratified cuboidal epithelium example provided in the table.
Simple squamous Stratified squamous
Simple cuboidal Stratified cuboidal
Simple columnar Stratified columnar
Pseudostratified columnar Transitional
